The delightful 8pin ATtiny412 comes in a few versions, all with 4kbyte of flash and 256byte of ram, and it takes a while to dig out the following: ATtiny412-SSNR 20MHz 1.8-5.5V -40 to +105°C tape and reel ATtiny412-SSN tube or tray ATtiny412-SSFR 16MHz 2.7-5.5V -40 to +125°C tape and reel ATtiny412-SSF tube or tray  

OMC has launched a fibre optic transceiver shield for Arduino Uno, designed to work with PMMA (polymer) optical cables up to 25m long, plus demonstration software. Operation is possible at 300, 600, 1,200, 2,400, 4,800, 9,600, 14,400, 19,200, 28,800, 38,400, 57,600 or 115,200bit/s. “The actual fibre optic emitter and receiver pair can operate up to 5M baud – the shield ...

The plethora of off-the-shelf boards available for development and production can make a bewildering choice. Engineers need to bear a number of criteria in mind, advises Simon Wade. There are many choices facing embedded systems developers who want to use off-the-shelf boards for development and production. There are numerous offerings based around the Arm architecture alone. The open licensing policy ...

Eh, what? Blimey... This project, dubbed the ardEEG shield, aims to use an Arduino UNO R4 WiFi as a brain-computer interface!

The Arduino team has announced a PLC Starter Kit aimed at those looking to learn about industrial automation apps. We're talking real-time control, and monitoring and maintenance applications...

Arduino has bought out second revisions of its Nano 33 BLE and Nano 33 BLE Sense bluetooth-equipped microcontroller boards, keeping the sensor mix, but changing several of the sensor ICs. The nRF52840 IC (via a u-blox NINA-B306 module) stays the same, and still provides both an Arm Cortex-M4 processor and a Bluetooth transceiver – to go with these is an ...

Time once more to do a periodic roundup of our recent Gadget book previews, from the realms of electronics, gadgetry, or general technology...

One for those keeping an eye on Matter, the connectivity standard for smart devices and the IoT: Arduino is partnering with Silicon Labs to better enable development of "Matter over Thread" applications for Arduino devices.

I love this one, and I love the name: the BinDaycator, an MCU-controlled model that tells you which coloured bin is due for collection. I first saw an image of it on twitter, on one of those syndicate collection site – all about the bantz and the lolz and funny pets – but thought it was worth following further… It ...

Here's one to note: Arduino has updated its Cloud Editor, brings the classic Arduino IDE experience to the browser.
