Julián is joining us from Argentina, to work on adding SparkFun parts to his miniBloq programming environment!
Visual programming languages are a unique way to introduce tyro programmers to thinking like a programmer. Here are some of the great tools we've discovered that enable visual programming for Arduino.
Technological befuddlements it took me 10 years and a college degree to understand.
In which we change some things in the database, and it's not exactly a simple task, and some things break. Lessons learned. etc.
FPGAs are ubiquitous in "traditional" engineering, but still have only a small stake in DIY culture. Here are a couple of projects that are changing that.
A look at controllers that use ladder logic.
Check out this video of our Scratch Programming Class using the SparkFun PicoBoard!
Getting started with the Raspberry Pi? Well, SparkFun has something for you.
The IOIO has found it's home with many Android devices. This blog post compiles all of the most recent IOIO projects and documentation into one place, in addition we are introducing a IOIO class.
Ever wanted to try out gang programming?
Minibloq - a free and open-source graphical programming environment for Arduino.

Wow great blog!
You need to reflash the firmware - see: https://github.com/sparkfun/SparkFun_DataLogger/issues/3 Once you flash using that command, you can…
I think I just overwrite the DataLogger IoT firmware was doing firmware update and accidently hit Arduino script file, instead of cool term…
Thanks for the great description! I hadn't even been aware of the existance of NNSS, though in the mid 1980s, I'd looked at LORAN-C for a…
Thanks for the L band sharing !
Over the years, I've been pretty vocal about wanting on-board RTCs, with at least the possibility of connecting something like a coin…
Not only does VBAT supply the RTC, but there’s also battery-backed RAM onboard too! With the amount of space available on the Thing Plus…
Interesting... it sort of covers one of my "hot buttons", that is having an RTC. In looking at the schematic, I noticed that the "BAT"…
But Social Engineer's LOVE him. Good job catching so many of the buttons social manipulators use, but I nearly thought Sparkfun was off…
I know that radar to measure speed (such as police use to check the speed of vehicles) uses doppler shift to measure the speed. The thought…
