One of the most interesting characteristics of modern life is the increasing number of ways we are embracing technology into the tasks and actions we take. Many of you will be aware of the “internet of things”, a development which allows us to control non-computerised appliances at home or work from remote locations. A necessary requirement for success with this is, of course, home and office automation systems. For those looking to implement such a system ZigBee ZE20 starter kits are perfect.

The USB STK200 AVR kit for all levels of programming
One of the most important things to do when helping someone learn a new ability or skill is to make sure that what they do at the start is relevant to them as they go on. By this we mean that there is no value in teaching skills in a basic version of something when it is completely different to what will be required as they move to a more advanced level. In terms of learning about AVR programmers we have designed the USB STK200 AVR starter kits to deliver this. Continue reading “The USB STK200 AVR kit for all levels of programming” »
The advantages of a safe and reliable bulk ISP programmer device
Over the years we’ve been proud to provide In-System Programming (ISP) devices for all levels of use. These devices allow you to program – or if required re-program – logic devices and microcontrollers without any need to remove the actual chipset to carry it out. Whilst this is of great value to those involved in specific projects or prototype design, the highest level of benefit is reflected in using devices that can handle this work on a very large scale.

The convenience and time saving of handheld programmers
The greatest thing about handheld programmers is the amount of time they can save when it comes to programming a large number of devices. With them it is a simple case of pre-programming the programmer with the correct code, plugging it in to a device and pressing a single button. That is all it takes.

Affordable and reliable USB for your projects
Despite a number of alternates and variations being available USB 2.0 remains the most popular form of connectivity to include in a device. This is as true of prototype and one off projects as it is mass produced equipment. Whilst a number of options are available to achieve adding it, Quick USB modules are a solution which we would not hesitate to recommend.

Quick connectivity with CANUSB
In order for microcontrollers to work effectively they need to be able to communicate with devices without needing to be connected to a host computer. This is important otherwise the micro part would be lost; in order to accommodate the computer controllers would have to be far larger and more expensive.
Understanding what universal means in universal programmers
There are, to start this article with wording we wouldn’t normally use, very few areas of our world which are not touched by controversy from time to time. Our area of expertise – programmers, chips and other forms of electronic tools – is by no means an exception to this. If we were asked to identify one area in particular which has been controversial over the years, it is with little or no hesitation that we’d say universal programmers.

The programming benefits of Bluetooth
With Wi-Fi networks and connectivity being so prevalent in this day and age there’s a tendency to, for want of a better term, “forget” about Bluetooth. Although it was, for many, the first experience many had with wireless connectivity, the speed, power and range possible with Wi-Fi has seen a substantial change in how we wirelessly connect devices. It would, however, be wrong to say Bluetooth has been abandoned all together. In the programming environment it still holds many distinct advantages. We supply Bluetooth starter kits designed to let you access them. Continue reading “The programming benefits of Bluetooth” »
