USB-to-serial UART bridges like the CH340 make it easier to upload code to an Arduino and pass serial data to/from your computer. Make sure to install the respective drivers before getting started.
Learn what a logic level is, and how to interface between different technologies, with a few of our tutorials!
We shot for the moon to develop the next flagship microprocessor module that can be the mainstay for the next generation of development boards.
We have ported another "still relevant" tutorial from our archives, and added additional content to make it even more helpful on your next project!
Control a robot wirelessly with your hand using XBees, Arduino and an accelerometer.
Using EL once again for my students' performance using a glove controller, XBees, EL sequencers and Arduino.
Control your RedBot programmed with Arduino using the wireless joystick and a pair of XBees!
The Sphero RVR and its Autonomous Robotics Kits are available for pre-order, along with the NVIDIA Jetson Nano. Also, since you asked for it: Arduino Pro Mini Starter Kits!
The AST-CAN485 is back in full force with a WiFi Shield and a 24V I/O Shield! We also have three new Qwiic boards from Zio and a GNSS Multi-Band Antenna.
The SAMD21 boards have the ability to add additional UART, SPI and I2C ports. Check out our new tutorial explaining how to set them up.
