Build Bluetooth Smart prototypes without soldering
Plugging straight into any standard bread board used by makers and hobbyists, a third-party open source module supplied in a specially-developed 16-pin through-hold DIP style package allows Bluetooth Smart and 2.4GHz proprietary wireless prototypes using Nordic chips to be built without soldering.
mbed shield board accelerates brushed DC motor development
The MAXREFDES89# full-bridge DC motor driver ARM mbed shield from Maxim Integrated is now in stock at distributor Mouser Electronics. The MAXREFDES89# provides developers with a rapid prototyping and development platform for driving up to four brushed DC motors. The board is an mbed-compatible, Arduino-form-factor shield for the rapid development of brushed DC motor applications.
STM32 sensor board supports 96Boards Consumer Edition
STMicroelectronics is sampling an STM32 MCU mezzanine board for 96Boards Consumer Edition (CE) platforms that simplifies development of smart mobile, embedded or digital-home devices. One of the first 96Boards CE small-mezzanine specification cards in the market, the B-F446E-96B01A simplifies development of context-aware functionality.
Incorporating capacitive force sensors in next gen product designs
Design engineers interested in integrating miniature force sensors into product designs now have an option to evaluate and integrate a new breed of capacitive technology-based sensor that can accurately and with high repeatability, measure forces as low as 1g.
Kickstarter project keeps things cool
FTDI Chip has introduced its latest product, NerO, being introduced on KickStarter. The objective of NerO is to deal with the fundamental drawbacks of the widely used Arduino UNO R3 and, by utilising a crowdfunding platform, get the engineering community involved right from the very beginning.
Leti to demonstrate consumer technology breakthroughs at CES 2016
CEA-Leti will demonstrate at CES 2016 three disruptive innovations, ranging from ultra-high-brightness, augmented-reality glasses to extremely high-speed wireless data transmission between mobile devices and the world’s first TV white-space modem limiting interference in adjacent spectrum bands.
Single-element miniature force sensor delivers superior sensitivity
Pressure Profile Systems unveiled the SingleTact, a high performance miniature capacitive force sensor that delivers superior sensitivity and repeatability over resistive force sensors. Existing state-of-the-art miniature force sensors have limited performance in sensitivity and repeatability.
