Review: MiniPro TL866A programmer

These days, most microcontrollers with flash program memory can be programmed in-circuit. But it wasn't that long ago that every electronics hobbyist dreamt of a universal programmer for (E)PROMs, GALs and microcontrollers. And of course it would also have to be able to cope with a huge range of devices. Nowadays, the MiniPro TL866A offers all that and more at a very reasonable price!

Review: The FreeSoC2 PSoC® 5LP Dev Board

The FreeSoC2 PSoC® 5LP Dev Board uses Cypress ARM processors and built-in configurable hardware to make a versatile system that can be used in the Arduino IDE or in the Cypress PSoC Creator environment (which offers many significant advantages). We take a quick look at the board to discover just some of the powerful features it has to offer. The FreeSoC2 PSoC® 5LP Dev Board is now available from the Elektor Store as part of a promotion.

Sprites, animations and high-quality graphics for PIC32

New for Microchip’s well established 32-bit PIC32 microcontroller range are a high-resolution 2D graphics controller and 32 Mbyte of SDRAM. The GPU is aimed at developers of embedded products wanting high-quality images and animations on displays up to 12 inch. Up to 24-bit colour is available in multiple input and output formats – with a global colour palette lookup table (CLUT) supporting 256 colours built in. Three independent composition layers are available, and there is an integrated DMA controller to offload the CPU for clipping, rotation (90°, 180°, 270°) and transparency.

Arduino: the next installment

At the end of last year the feud that has for so long split Arduino asunder seemed to have been resolved. Massimo Banzi announced at the World Maker Faire New York that a single united IDE is being created in a nonprofit foundation. He went on to say “The Arduino Foundation will allow us to champion the core values of the Arduino Community within the open source ecosystem and make our commitment to open source stronger than ever.” It also has a manifesto (in PDF) outlining many beautiful ideas and goals for the foundation. There are also some troubling undercurrents...
