NEXCOM is thrilled to reintroduce the SBC EBC 357X series with a revamped design that withstands adverse temperatures and economizes space with its upside-down CPU. The boards save costs by utilizing world-class Intel Atom® E39xx processors, which function as beautifully as i3s without sacrificing speed. Intended for those that desire simple and compact HMIs, the EBC 357X series is suitable for a variety of ...

It is necessary to understand basic I/O operations of PIC18F4550 before dealing with its complexities. This article presents a way to take simple output from a PIC microcontroller. This learning would also help in interfacing of external devices with the controller. Here the output from the microcontroller is taken on a set of LEDs which are made to blink in an alternate fashio ...

The operational amplifier – or “op amp” for short – is a common building block in analog electronics. Whether you’re a professional electronics designer or just getting started, it is likely you’ve used an op amp in your designs. Invented in 1941 by Karl D. Swartzel Jr. of Bell Labs, the op amp was originally built with vacuum tubes and was invented to perform mathematical operations in analog computers, he ...

OriginGPS has announced its first dual-frequency GNSS module, the ORG4600-B01, which will enable customers to build systems with sub-1m accuracy without implementing external components. by Jean-Pierre Joosting @ www.mwee.com Measuring just 10- x 10-mm, the ORG4600-B01 module supports L1 + L5 GNSS reception with one RF port, enabling the use of a low-cost, dual-band antenna delivering sub-1m accuracy p ...

As explained earlier, a seven segment interfaced with PIC uses almost an entire port (minimum 7 pins) to display a value. But a real time application, like watch, calculator etc., usually requires at least 3-4 seven segments. In such a case it is not advisable to use a port of the controller for each seven segment. In these cases, multiplexing technique is used to work with more than one seve ...

The character LCDs are the most commonly used display modules. These LCDs are used to display text using alphanumeric and special characters of font 5x7/5x10. For basic working and operations of a character LCD, refer LCD interfacing with 8051. Here PIC18F4550 has been used to display a single character on a 16x2 character LCD. For basic details and operations of character LCD, refer LCD interfacing with 80 ...

USB powered mini speaker amplifier is conveniently powered by USB and it is simple to set up. USB powered speakers are convenient for listening to your media while at home or on the go. Conventional computer speakers that require an electrical outlet to work can be prohibitive because they force you to be close to the power supply at all times. This audio amplifier is directly connected to a USB port and to ...

Several automated and semi-automated devices require a message to be displayed in order to indicate their working status. In continuation to LCD interfacing with PIC18F4550, this article explains how to display a message or string on a 16x2 character LCD. Programming steps: ·         Configure the LCD. ·         ...

OmniVision Technologies has released a fully packaged, wafer-level camera module measuring just 0.65×0.65mm and 1.158mm tall. Built around the company’s Guinness World Record breaking image sensor, only 0.575mm by 0.575mm, the OVM6948 CameraCubeChip was developed as a disposable medical imager, preventing cross-contamination risks while providing deeper anatomical access without being too invasive. Omn ...
