Slice of Radio is a pre-built, two way plug and play module that slots directly into the Pi's communications serial port. The on board chip antenna enables the device to operate up to 200m away, although its range can be extended to up to 1,000m with an external antenna. Miles Hodkins...
The question which many are asking is where the device goes next? And that's a question which the Raspberry Pi Foundation isn't going to answer – at least in the short term. Pete Lomas is a co founder of the Foundation and its hardware guru. "We're not saying anything about the future...
The funding boost, announced today by universities and science minister David Willetts, represents an increase of more than £50m from last year. Technology areas that will benefit from the investment include renewable energy, future cities, advanced materials, satellites, digital tech...
It took test and measurement specialist Rohde & Schwarz almost eight decades to enter the oscilloscope market. Having made that momentous step, the company is continuing to invest in the sector in order to broaden its portfolio and take market share. According to Roland Steffen, execu...
The device, which has been designed around STMicroelectronics' STM32F103 mcu, can operate as a bridge between Raspberry Pi and Arduino shields and as a Cortex-M3 evaluation board. The board's functionality can be selected by changing the jumper settings. In STM32/standalone mode, the ...
The Ampere – one of the seven base units of the SI system – is defined officially in terms of the force generated between two parallel wires placed 1m apart in a vacuum. However, this is seen as not being sufficiently accurate. The NPL's solution is a graphene single electron pump (SE...
The architecture of the PicoScope 5000 Series allows multiple high resolution a/d converters to be applied in different series and parallel combinations to boost either the sampling rate or the resolution. In series mode, converters are interleaved to provide 1Gsample/s at 8bit. In pa...
"Power is increasingly a strategic choice for product differentiation in communications, computing and enterprise, and industrial applications," said John Daane, Altera's president and ceo. "By adding a power group to Altera, we will bring even more value to system level designs. Alte...
