The ESP-IDF contains functions for enabling Base64 encoding and decoding on ESP32. The encoding and decoding functions are actually built into the ESP32 ROM. The functions are accessible by using…
The ESP32 may be a low power chip when compared with other WiFi or networking chipsets in the domain. But in conventional terms, ESP32 is not exactly a low power…
The LIS3DH triple axis accelerometer by ST Micro is one of the popular, low cost and extremely low power MEMS accelerometers in the market today. It does carry the weight…
The new ZMOD4510 gas sensor from IDT (Renesas) hit the market a few months ago and is a unique sensor of its kind. This first post (of many, we assume)…
Here is a quick guide to PCB drill sizes for common screw or fastener sizes used for mounting PCBs, M3 for example. The table does NOT list the recommended clearance…
A 3.3V PIR sensor for low power or battery based applications is hard to find, for some reason. Modules that you find out there for Arduino are not exactly low…
The ESP32 WiFi/BT SoC from Espressif Systems supports wired ethernet along with wireless networking, which could be a huge advantage for applications that need wired connectivity. Ethernet is still a…
Some STM32 series of MCUs have a DCMI peripheral that can be used to interface the STM32 chip directly tocamera sensors. The DCMI is flexible enough to support a variety…
The PCBArtists VisualGDB Debug Adapter can be used with a bunch of different embedded platforms, including STM32 and ESP32. The adapter allows you to debug and flash the target platforms…
