Putting technology into the hands of children
BBC Micro:Bit is a device that has been launched today which places a pocket sized computer in the hands of one million year 7 children across the UK to encourage them to get hands-on and creative with technology.The device features motion detection, a built-in compass and Bluetooth technology, which is to be given free to every child in year 7 or equivalent across the UK.
DIN Rail mounting enclosures to house embedded platforms
During recent years, industrial control applications have seen a gradual increase in the adoption of embedded ARM Boards. This is a trend which continues to grow and as a result embedded boards such as the Raspberry PI, Beaglebone and Arduino are being more commonly considered for use in industrial applications.
Development platform opens route to audio, sensor applications
The FM4 S6E2GM Pioneer Kit from Cypress Semiconductor is available at Mouser Electronics. The easy-to-use platform allows developers to design with and evaluate the FM4 S6E2GM-Series of 32-bit microcontrollers. The microcontrollers are based on the 180MHz ARM Cortex‑M4 processor with 1MByte of on-chip flash memory and 192Kbytes of SRAM.
Latest addition to development board enclosures
Hammond Electronics has further extended its family of design-specific plastic enclosures for housing small form factor development boards with the introduction of the HAMAR, configured for the Arduino LEONARDO, M0 PRO, UNO or YÚN, and the HAMBB, optimised for the BeagleBone Green.
STM32 ODE was showcased at Embedded World
Just over a year after its launch, the STM32 Open Development Environment from STMicroelectronics has grown into a complete integrated ecosystem for developers of embedded systems, including applications for the Internet of Things (IoT).The STM32 Open Development Environment (STM32 ODE) is an ideal way to start development of innovative devices and applications with state-of-the-art ST components.
Bringing more efficiency to power conscious devices
The ultra-energy efficient ARM Cortex-M0+ STM32L0 microcontrollers from STMicroelectronics have gone into volume production. The boards include an extensive development ecosystem, including minimal cost boards and free software tools that help developers keep tight control of application power consumption and minimise time to market.
Small form factor cases for various board standards
Pentair offers customised cases with fanless (conduction) cooling based on the Schroff Interscale platform for the most common board standards: ATX, Micro ATX, Mini-ITX, Embedded NUC, Pico ITX, Raspberry Pi 2 Model B as well as Arduino.
Design tools upgrade smooths access to components
Digi-Key Electronics has upgraded its Scheme-it and PCBWeb design tools. With its electronic back-of-the-napkin functionality, Scheme-it provides an environment for creative ideation needs whether that is in block, icon, schematic or board expansion format. At Embedded World in Nuremberg, Digi-Key announced the most extensive update to Scheme-it in the history of the tool.
Evaluation kit targets high performance industrial control
The SAME70-Xplained Evaluation Kit for Atmel’s SAME70 general-purpose industrial/consumer microcontroller is available from distributor Farnell element14. It is built on the ARM Cortex-M7 architecture with integrated floating-point unit. The board can be used with a wide range of extension boards which are integrated with Atmel Studio, Atmel Software Framework (ASF) drivers and demo code, support data streaming, and more.
The Genuino article
The much-anticipated Genuino 101 from Intel and Arduino is in stock at Mouser. The Genuino 101 is the first widely available learning and development board based on the Intel Curie module, delivering Intel performance with the simplicity of Arduino for entry-level makers and education environments.With native Bluetooth and sensor capabilities, the Genuino 101 is suited for prototyping wearable, IoT and mobile applications.
