How To Monitor I2C Communications Through RS232
by Electro-Tech-Online member languer In the past when requiring to monitor I2C communications between two devices I would use a logic analyzer. Such monitoring was useful to determine if the I2C communications between devices was properly configured. Even though this is quite useful and efficient, it does require a logic analyzer, with an I2C protocol […]
NFC chip with embedded flash offers increased RF performance in a small package

ARM TechCon: High Energy Around Low-Power IoT
At ARM TechCon in Santa Clara last week, it was evident that the Internet of Things’ enormous potential understandably fuels the Internet of Things’ enormous hype. Still, IoT is “…growing slower than expected” and ARM apparently plans to jump-start growth with the mbed operating system (mbed OS) for low-power, embedded IoT devices. The full-stack OS, designed for ARM Cortex-M-based MCUs, is low-power […]
