One part that I find myself using somewhat regularly in microcontroller-based experiments is the “USB power bank” that provides USB-standard 5-V DC output and offers some basic protection features.

The project illustrates an old Arduino USB board being hacked by finding the right pins and stringing a capacitor between the serial connector and the reset line. One side of the capacitor connects to ...

The popularity of the Arduino as a development platform has meant that it finds use in some pretty amazing projects across the globe - and here's a small selection to get you thinking about what you ...

Arduino doesn’t have the cultural cachet of its fellow single-board player Raspberry Pi, but it’s arguably more popular for ...

[Hans Peter] wanted to move away from using full Arduino boards in his projects. One of the components he rarely used after the development stage is the USB hardware. Once the firmware is flashed to ...

What if you could combine the simplicity of Arduino with the power of a Linux-based processor, all in one compact device? Enter the Arduino Uno Q, a new development board designed to handle everything ...

The big picture: If you don't know anything about electronics but have always wanted to learn and build your own IoT project, Arduino has the solution for you. The Plug and Make Kit is a comprehensive ...
