We’re always excited to get a new chip or SIM card to interface, but our enthusiasm is often dampened by the prototyping process. Interfacing any chip usually means breadboarding a circuit, writing ...

Microcontroller-based systems with analog I/O can be simplified by modularizing them as stackable boards interconnected by a minimalist bus. The Inter­Module Bus (IMB) is a master-slave bus controlled ...

The 24AA00 is a 128-bit I2C-bus Electrically Erasable Programmable ROM (EEPROM) memory with a 2-wire serial interface. This device is a low-voltage design that allows operation down to 1.7 volts. It ...

Serial buses dot the landscape of embedded design. From displays to storage to peripherals, serial interfaces make communications possible. Many serial communication interfaces compete for use in ...

We use the Bus Pirate to interface a new chip without writing code or designing a PCB. Based on your feedback, and our experience using the original Bus Pirate to demonstrate various parts, we updated ...
