Greetings everyone,Well this is my first blog entry relating to the Keysight U1461A Insulation multimeter. I would like to thank Element 14 and Keysight for the opportunity to carry out this road test review. I will try and create a perspective based...
In this blog post, comprised of mainly the video we test a few of the environmental ratings of the U1461A meter, www.youtube.com/watch why did I do this to my meter ?, well so you don't have to to know it works Specifically, ...
For google: SAMA5D3 Xplained TFT43AB_OMAP35x 081202 After months on and off with this device I have finally got it working as I intended. I have wifi working, framebuffer working, the LCD display working, and it has only taken me since Sept...
2014 Year in Review Check out some of the best and most popular RoadTests from 2014! Did you use any of these products this year? Are they are your wishlist to try in 2015? (This is not a ranking) #1 The Ultimate Raspberry Pi B...
After I finished my RoadTest review of the Zero Gecko starter kit, I still had some functionality that I want to try out. One of them is SPI support.I have an SD card breakout board in my toolbox. That's what I'm connecting to the starter kit.Simplic...
Hi, I am in the process of writing a tutorial for a Road Test and would like some comments on what items would be most useful: How to load software for IDEHow to setup a Bootloader on flashHow to quick start for demo like flash...
This will be the first posting of my road test experience with the EFM32™︎ Zero Gecko Starter Kit. Today I woke up to the very nice surprise of being chosen for this road test. I want to thank everyone involved who made this possible especially Silico...
For me one of the nice features of the MBR3 chips is the I2C bus. This allows you to read the status of the switches from a microcontroller with just two wires. If you can spare a 3rd wire then you can also use the "host interrupt" feature ...
For my road test of the CapSense MBR3 I want to see how suitable these sensors are for a workshop environment. In my previous test I looked at different types of gloves, so for this test I am going to review different front panel materials and thickn...
I put up my first ever Road Test video on YouTube! Once I get I2C working (or give up), I'll do a write-up as an actual Road Test review. In the mean time, here are my first impressions and a few notes about the CapSense MBR3 eval kit!www.youtube.com...
For my road test of the CapSense MBR3 I want to see how suitable these sensors are for a workshop environment. For that reason I'm conducting two key tests. Firstly one using different types of gloves, and secondly one with different thicknesses of f...
As mentioned in my previous post CapSense Evaluation Kit - First Impressions, I planned to run through the user guide to familiarise myself with the board. I was particularly interested in understanding the configuration of the switch sensitivity and...
IntroThe deadline for blog post submission is way too close to be ignored so let's get down to business. I've been lately busy with a lot of work-related stuff. All the hobby projects had to be put on hold. But since the summer vacation is getting cl...
I volunteered for this road test because I thought that capacitive switches could be a good solution for front panels for CNC or measuring equipment in a workshop environment. I particularly liked the idea that you could design your switches on a PCB...
Forward: I have to say, being an engineering student it has been such a tool and resource to have Element 14. For example tuition costs are pricey, so to afford all the awesome electronics I received from this bundle would have been far and in betwe...
First weeks status, I didn't received the hardware yet. Looking forward to get the tools soon as I would like to use them for the The Inductive Sensing Design Challenge
Goal: Being a father of two and having many friends in the same category. The goal to having a great party is ensuring, the kids are entertained. So my goal was not to turn the raspberry pi into the ultimate rave machine, but to use it to keep a...
I just had to try out the sweep functionality of the 2450 on a 12V zener. Very easy to set up and the graph mode is very functional.The pan and zoom is a little slow and seems to have a glitch if you zoom in too far. Still very awesome. As...
