Preview one breadboard usage picture first.  And you can learn how the pins connected in one breadboard and how to use it.  The following is some basic information about breadboard. What is a breadboard? A breadboard is a rectangular plastic board with a bunch of arrayed tiny holes in it. You can easily insert electronic components into these holes to make up a connective circuit for prototyping or testing. There are different sizes and different colors of breadboards like these. You can visit this page to purchase breadboards in good price.

Living in this new digital age, children coming out from schools more need to become makers or inventors creating their own ideas and creating incredible technology to build a bright future. The BBC micro:bit was designed to encourage children to get actively involved in the computer education and make new things, rather than just being consumers of technology. So, let’s see how to develop the skills of making with this tiny computer which costs less than $15 - which means, anyone can have a micro:bit! From writing code to sharing your creations, micro:bit is the great way to get kids stepped on the maker journey. Here is a recommended route that will make your kids’ experience as smooth and fun as possible.

With years of experience in open source hardware industry and located in Shenzhen which is referred as the largest electronic market of China, Elecrow has developed a mature supply chain in PCB service and wins a good reputation in international electronics hardware communities. Due to the continuous research and concentration on the needs of industry and individual maker, engineer and entrepreneur, Elecrow got down to expand the production lines in 2017 and launched the brand new one-stop solution to hardware project in March, 2018, to be an accessible and cost-effective manufacturing resource for everybody who has ideas to create electronic hardware. What is one-stop solution to hardware project? It means our service covers the entire process of building and bringing

We’re gonna have 7 days holiday for our Chinese Spring Festival starting from 14^th Feb,2018 to 21^st Feb,2018, so we will be not able to process the orders placed in the period. But, you are definitely welcome to place any orders because we do the perfect arrangements internally so as to process them efficiently as soon as we get back on 22nd Feb. Here is a chart for easily checking our schedule:                 For any chance that you may get questions about the schedule,

PCB design is no doubt significant part for creating a PCB board, and also the most difficult process according to some posts in the PCB design forums. Even so, there are some electronics hobbyists and engineers loving doing the PCB designing work by themselves instead of finding a online PCB design service. So if you are one of them, you are gonna have to pay much more attention to these "pitfalls". 1. Unclear specification of processing layer The design of single-sided board should be processed in the top layer. But it could be processed in the front and back sides if without any specification, the board made is likely not to be good for components soldering.

In March 2012, the world’s first card-type Linux microcomputer was launched by Raspberry Pi foundation. Although it’s as small as a credit card in size, it can absolutely work as good as a PC, surfing the Internet, playing 1080P movie and games, editing texts and what’s more, program development are not a big deal for Raspberry Pi. If you are an electronic hobbyist or DIY maker, Raspberry Pi is perfect and the first choice. With some programming knowledge, you can get started with it straight away. In this article, I’m gonna give introductions about each version of Raspberry Pi and their differences, so you can make a right purchase according to your own needs. First Generation of Raspberry Pi The first generation of Raspberry Pi includes 4 versions: A, A+,

Micro:bit is an ARM-based embedded system designed by the BBC for use in computer education in the UK. The BBC gave away the computer free to every year 7 child in Britain starting from October 2015(around 1 million devices). Micro:bit now becomes a worldwide popular device. The Micro:bit Foundation aims to put the device into the hands of 2 million children in the U.S. & Canada by 2020. "The goal of the micro:bit is to give educators and parents an easy-to-use tool to teach the basics of computer programming and inspire students to imagine, invent and innovate." said Hal Speed, Head of North America at the Micro:bit Foundation. In Japan, the Micro:bit Foundation's goal is to deliver the micro:bit to 300,000 Japanese children by 2020. In Croatia,

Voice typing feature is quite common to mobile phones; it is considered faster and user-friendly to those who find it difficult to type to input the question about which they need information. If typing fast is required or your handicap, this feature works the best for you. In this article, we will input voice via an Android App and the output will be displayed on LCD using Raspberry Pi. This requires a 16x 2 LCD with Raspberry Pi which is equipped with Bluetooth to receive inputs from the mobile phone. Start with Connecting 16x2 LCD with Raspberry Pi: Setting Bluetooth is preceded by interfacing 16x 2 LCD with Raspberry Pi. Bluetooth setup, first we will interface 16x2 LCD as Raspberry Pi accessory. External

All the electronic products have to use PCB to function, so there is a consensus that the trend of PCB market almost indicates the dynamic of the electronic industry. With the development of phone, laptop and PDA and the other advanced, small-sized electronic products like the wearable devices, the demands for flexible printed circuit boards are increasingly growing. PCB manufacturers are focused to create thinner, lighter and higher-density FPC to seize this thriving market. Under the background, I consider it necessary to write about the differences between single-sided flex PCB, double-sided flex PCB and multilayer flex PCB, whether for the PCB fabricators or the open source hardware makers who are likely to buy
