The goal of this article is fairly basic, to try and find various sensors and modules that you can use with an Arduino (and other microcontrollers if you want) but I had a few criteria There must be more than …

The BMA250E is an advanced, ultra-small, triaxial, low-g acceleration sensor with digital interfaces, aiming for low-power consumer electronics applications. Featuring 10 bit digital resolution, the BMA250E allows low-noise measurement of accelerations in 3 perpendicular axes. A typical module technical Information …

The MLX90393 magnetic field sensor can be reprogrammed to different modes and with different settings at run-time. The sensor offers a 16-bit output proportional to the magnetic flux density sensed along the XYZ axes using the Melexis proprietary Triaxis® technology …

The Honeywell HMC5983 is a temperature compensated three-axis integrated circuit magnetometer. This surface-mount, multi-chip module is designed for low-field magnetic sensing for applications such as automotive and personal navigation, vehicle detection, and pointing. The HMC5983 includes our state-of-the-art, high-resolution HMC118X …

The MAX30100 is an integrated pulse oximetry and heart-rate monitor sensor solution. It combines two LEDs, a photodetector, optimized optics, and low-noise analog signal processing to detect pulse oximetry and heart-rate signals. The MAX30100 operates from 1.8V and 3.3V power …

The BMI160 is a small, low power, low noise 16-bit inertial measurement unit designed for use in mobile applications like augmented reality or indoor navigation which require highly accurate, real-time sensor data. In full operation mode, with both the accelerometer …

The TCS3472 device provides a digital return of red, green, blue (RGB), and clear light sensing values. An IR blocking filter, integrated on-chip and localized to the color sensing photodiodes, minimizes the IR spectral component of the incoming light and …

In this example we want to display temperature readings from an MCP9808 temperature sensor on an Arduino Digit Shield. We have already looked at the shield and sensor in previous articles. We have covered the digit shield in the following …

The DS1624 consists of two separate functional units: a 256-byte nonvolatile E2 memory and a direct-to-digital temperature sensor. The nonvolatile memory is made up of 256 bytes of E2 memory. This memory can be used to store any type of …

This was an 8×8 dot matrix module which is based on 74hc595, its reasonably easy to program and there is also a tool that allows you to create animations Description : Square matrix display module 8×8 dot Red pixels Pixel size: …

Ok, I had heard of Simba OS but hadn’t managed to try it, as quoted “2Simba is an RTOS and build framework. It aims to make embedded programming easy and portable” Install it Install Simba in the Arduino IDE 1.6.10+ …

RobotDyn UNO+WIFI R3  is a customized version of the classic ARDUINO UNO R3 board which has two Processors: Atmel ATmega328 microcontroller and ESP8266 WiFi chip with 8 MB flash memory. Each processor has its own pinout headers. The board also has …
