Connector chosen for use within IoT computing platform
Intel has chosen to use Hirose’s DF40 series board-to-board connector within its recently released Edison computing platform. The miniature platform, which is suitable for the development of IoT, wearable, mobile, industrial and automotive applications, utilises the DF40 70-pin header to allow developers to connect devices such as displays, keyboards and power supplies.
Raspberry Pi accessory board adds sensory & output modules
The GrovePi+ is an accessory board that allows users to interface a Raspberry Pi SBC with Seeed's Grove line of sensors, inputs, and output devices. The GrovePi+ drivers and SDK can be utilised to easily write software for the Raspberry Pi that interacts with Grove devices. The GrovePi+ Starter Kitt from Seeed Studio and Dexter Industries includes a GrovePi+ board and a selection of Grove modules.
Arduino shields enable RGB lighting & motor control
Compatible with the Arduino Uno R3, two shields have been announced by Infineon Technologies for RGB lighting and motor control applications. Both shields can be combined with the XMC1100 Boot Kit which is equipped with a 32-bit MCU from the XMC1000 family.

EVEs support the development of intelligent displays
EVE platforms, targeted at the creation of intelligent display systems using capacitive touch, have been released by FTDI Chip. Based on the FT801 EVE chip, the VM801B and VM801P support one to five independent touch points, enabling gestures such as rotations, swipes, pinches and zooms. The devices can source power at 5V via a 2.1mm power jack, USB Micro-B port or SPI master connector. Via a I2C interface, the EVEs can alternatively source power...
Development board accelerates NFC implementation
The ArchiTech Louvre board is a platform to help engineers accelerate the implementation of Near Field Communications (NFC) in electronic devices. The demonstration and development board is based around the NXP LPC11U37 ARM Cortex M0 microcontroller (MCU) and the NXP NTAG I2C tag IC. It comes with firmware and sample Android applications, and source code is provided under GPL (the General Public License for the GNU operating system).
PSoC-4 development platform simplifies design process
Cypress Semiconductor’s PSoC-4 Pioneer Kit is now on sale at Mouser Electronics. The easy-to-use platform allows developers to design and evaluate the Cypress CY8C4245AXI, a member of PSoC‑4 family. The PSoC‑4 product family is a combination of an ARM Cortex‑M0 microcontroller, reconfigurable analogue blocks, and digital programmable logic.
Development platform delivers IoT applications
RS Components is supporting the complete Intel Edison development platform, which includes: the ultra-small Intel Edison compute module; the Intel Edison breakout board that helps rapid prototyping; and the Intel Edison board for Arduino. The Intel Edison module is a highly miniaturised product-ready compute module built using an advanced 22nm System-on-Chip (SoC) that includes a dual-core, dual-threaded 500MHz Intel Atom CPU and a 100MHz 32-bit ...
Kickstarter crowdfunding enables ARM-based innovations
This year’s festive season gift list will feature more startup-invented products than ever. The likes of the Pebble watch, the Kano computer and the 360cam were all created by tiny companies using widely-available development kits with crowd sourced funding, raising the question: “Should this year’s gift be the mass produced must-have present off the production line or should it be the chance to invent next year’s sensatio...
