Every Batman needs a Robin, right? Maybe not, but a superhero companion comes in handy on occasion, and not just in comic books. The Raspberry Pi Foundation today announced a small and super ...

We are certainly spoiled by all the microcontroller options nowadays — which is a great problem to have. But between the good old 8-bit controllers and an increasing number of 32-bit varieties, it ...

Check out this 6-pin MSP430 microcontroller. What’s that you say? TI doesn’t make a 6-pin MSP430? True, Texas Instruments doesn’t make one, so [Greg] grabbed his Demel and a cutoff wheel, and chopped ...

Embedded microcontrollers are the original SoC devices. In the last few years FPGA and PLD manufacturers have proffered the term “System- on- a Programmable Chip” (SOPC) which captures the idea of ...

I was lucky enough to get one minuscule microcontroller board, the RP2040-Zero from Waveshare. This is a low-cost, high-performance, RPi Pico-like microcontroller board based on the Raspberry Pi ...

Nearly a decade after debuting its first $35 single-board computer, the Raspberry Pi Foundation is launching a new Raspberry Pi Pico that sells for just $4. It’s so small and so cheap that you get one ...
