Sirojudin Munir has released a complete open-source Field-Oriented Control driver for BLDC and PMSM motors, featuring STM32 firmware, KiCad hardware design, and a Python GUI for control and monitoring.
Have you ever thought that when you complete the design on KiCad, you can place an order on pcbway with just one click? When you click PCBWay Plug-in button on Kicad, we will export these files in your project： 1.Gerber files in correct format for production 2.IPC-Netlist file 3.Bom-file that includes all information of components…
Getting to know and evaluate the software offer for PCB, in order to choose the best one for our needs. Designing an electronic board is a considerable and varied effort, both in terms of board design, starting from its functional specs, and in terms of construction. In order to create an integrated board, we…
KiCAD has a rightfully earned image problem regarding beginners. The shiny new version 5 has improved things (and we’re very excited for v6!) but the tool is a bit obtuse even when coming from a electronics design background, so we’re always excited to see new learning material. [Mike Watts] is the latest to join…
Max Williams has just shared on Hackster.io schematics, PCB layouts, CircuitPython code via GitHub, BoMs, measurements and photos about his new open source modular HiFi amplifier. It uses an Adafruit ItsyBitsy M0 Express running CircuitPython to make great music. The preamplifier is made up of a number of connected components: MDAC attenuator (PCB, code): Controls the volume Input selector (PCB, code):…
BeagleBoard.org has revealed its latest development board named PocketBeagle. It’s an ultra-tiny and open source USB-key-fob computer that’s crafted for DIYers, hobbyists, and educators. Talking about the dimensions, PocketBeagle measures 56x35x5mm. This small size makes it flexible enough for electronic projects like gaming, drones, 3D printing, robotics, etc. PocketBeagle is based on Octavo Systems OSD3358-SM 21mm x 21mm system-in-package,…
The A64-OLinuXino is an open source hardware board that runs Linux and Android. It is Olimex’s first 64-bit ARMv8 OlinuXino board and the first to be designed entirely with open source CAD software (KiCad). The A64-OLinuXino is currently available in a 50-Euro A64-OLinuXino-1G4GW model with 1GB RAM, 4GB eMMC, WiFi, and Bluetooth. It’s also available…
Like every year, the FOSDEM, Free and Open Source Developers’ European Meeting, happened on 30 and 31 January in Brussels and proved itself yet another time the most important European meeting for the Free Software Community. Organised by volunteers and free to attend, FOSDEM distinguishes itself from classic conferences by being oriented to communication between…
