FPGAs are great and there are a number of cool things you can do with them. But as we come across more and more FPGA development boards, we realize that only a few of them are actually designed to be inserted into a breadboard. The new Mercury 2 development board by MicroNova is a breadboard-friendly Xilinx Artix-7 FPGA board packaged in a …

In Sayanee’s Basu’s video, we can look at the design considerations in the process of taking a breadboard prototype to a custom PCB, from the microcontroller to the various subsystems, to the power, the bootloader, and even how to deal with faulty components. A breadboard can be useful for educational purposes, art projects, and even small …

So this is the Nanoleaf 2.0 which is a DIY version of the famous Nanoleaf RGB Triangular lighting setup. The goal here was to Recreate a Nanoleaf-like device with minimal spec and low cost, one that has all the basic RGB Glowing features and can be made easily. To accomplish this feat, I prepared this …
A disclaimer right up front, I didn’t shrink the remotes and that’s not a photo of my remotes through a microscope. But what I did do was shrink them down to the buttons I use the most. Not even sure what most of the others do! However, most of you will know what this image …
In 2019 Professor of Behavioral Neuroscience Kelly Lambert and her research colleagues published a journal article called “Enriched Environment Exposure Accelerates Rodent Driving Skills.” This article explains “The research team built a tiny car for the rats out of a clear plastic food container on wheels, with an aluminum floor and three copper bars functioning as a …

I have created a joystick-controlled car, capable of moving left, right, forwards, and backwards. I created this as I thought it would be a challenging project with a fun and exciting purpose. Supplies Arduino Uno R3 L293D Motor Control 2x DC Motor Servo Motor 2x 9v Battery (or 1 battery and 1 portable USB power …
What is this BLC? Ans: Binary logical Calculator using Arduino Uno R3. Formally we are doing Arduino project which is real-time application in introductory labs and other places. This is all about how to create Arduino Uno project which does some basic computation for our regular labs and homeworks. Again with new concept and new …
Wassup Makers!! In this Instructables we will learn how to interface an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) to the NodeMCU board. These 16×2 LCDs are very popular and broadly used in electronics projects as they are good for displaying information like sensor data from your project, and also they are very cheap. Step 1: Things Needed We need few components to get …
I recently started using Arduino to make my projects. As a designer I love making custom interfaces for my games/interactive projects. The one problem I came across in that using serial communication is quite complicated and prone to problems and bugs and I wanted a quick and easy solution to allow me to use external …
US-based technology Product development company, Earth People Technology, recently announced the launch of a DAC (digital to analog converter) breakout board that is based on the popular eight-bit MCP4901 DAC Chip. The new breakout board, in line with the nature of the products developed by the company, comes with breadboard compatibility which makes it easy to use for …
