Setting up an Arduino Nano for Matter development is a key first step in making smart home devices that work with each other and are up to date. Matter introduces a single communication standard that lets devices work together across …

Introduction Matter is a new standard for smart homes that aims to fix one of the biggest problems with connected devices: they don’t always work with each other. Smart home ecosystems have been broken up for a long time, with …

At the heart of nearly every Arduino project are three core functions: digitalWrite() digitalRead() analogRead() Arduino interacts with the real world by turning pins on and off, reading button states, and measuring sensor values. Even though they seem simple, it’s …

Flash, SRAM, and EEPROM are the three different types of memory that Arduino boards use. Each type has its own job. To write stable, efficient, and scalable sketches, you need to know how these types of memory work and how …

EEPROM (Electrically Erasable Programmable Read-Only Memory) allows you to store data permanently on an Arduino, even when power is lost. This is useful for storing settings, calibration values, or user preferences. Basics of Using EEPROM in Arduino The EEPROM on …

In this article we look at a Triple-axis Magnetometer, the MMC5603 and connect it to an Arduino Uno Sensor Information This sensor can sense ranges from ±30 Gauss (±3000uT or ±3mT) with no range-setting required and full 20 bit output …

In this article we look at an Ambient Light sensor, the LTR-303 and connect it to an Arduino Uno Sensor Information The LTR-303ALS is a low cost,small, I2C Ambient Light sensor. The LTR-303ALS comes in a 2.0×2.0×0.7mm 6pin DFN package. …

In this article we look at a dot matrix display from keyestudio which is controlled by a HT16K33 The 8X8 dot matrix is composed of 64 light-emitting diodes, and each light-emitting diode is placed at the intersection of the row …
