Within three years, no embedded software developer is going to be writing code. I know it sounds like another one of my controversial statements. But I recently used Claude Code to write the best ...

I love the idea of a fully automated smart home setup where my lights turn on exactly when I need them, and the thermostat adjusts itself without me even thinking about it. In practice, however, there ...

Vector Control, also known as Field Oriented Control or FOC is an AC motor control scheme that enables fine-grained control over a connected motor, through the precise control of its phases. In a ...

Bipolar stepper motors provide precise position control while operating in an open loop. Industrial automation applications—such as robots and processing and packaging machinery—and consumer ...

Qualcomm (QCOM) announced on Monday that it is acquiring open-source hardware and software developer Arduino as it seeks to further grow its footprint in the edge computing space and push beyond its ...

A new motor driver featuring pulse-width modulation (PWM) and serial interfaces ensures quiet and robust motor operation in industrial and consumer applications. The motor driver IC, supporting both ...

Apple jumped onto the AI bandwagon with the release of iOS 18.1 and the introduction of Apple Intelligence. Since then, the company has been expanding the abilities of Apple Intelligence, with new ...

Paul and David Bradt’s Ardiono Projects offers multiple ways to use Arduino and Raspberry Pi microcontrollers for your model railroading projects. Buy the book here. Code for Button/Blink Test (SN095) ...

This is a modification of the popular AccelStepper library that runs the motors using timer interrupts instead of polling them in the main loop. This allows for more precise step timings and running ...
