Let’s say you want to blink an LED. You might grab an Arduino and run the Blink sketch, or you might lace up a few components to a 555. But you needn’t go so fancy! [The Design Graveyard] explains how ...

Qualcomm's acquisition gives it access to millions of developers in the Arduino ecosystem while also supporting its platform strategy for embedded devices, which now extends across hardware, software, ...

Qualcomm announced Tuesday it will acquire Arduino for undisclosed terms. The chipmaker said the Italy-based company would become an independent subsidiary of Qualcomm. In this article Qualcomm wants ...

On Oct. 3, 1950, three scientists at Bell Labs in New Jersey received a U.S. patent for what would become one of the most important inventions of the 20th century — the transistor. John Bardeen, ...

Transistors, the building blocks of modern electronics, are typically made of silicon. Because it's a semiconductor, this material can control the flow of electricity in a circuit. But silicon has ...

Ok, we’ll admit it. If you asked us what the first transistorized computer was, we would have guessed it was the TC from the University of Manchester. After all, Dr. Wilkes and company were at the ...

Have you ever imagined turning your ideas into physical objects with just a few clicks? Thanks to tools like Tinkercad, what once seemed like science fiction is now an accessible reality for anyone ...

With the right mix of materials, TFETs promise cooler, smaller, and more efficient circuits for everything from the Internet of Things to brain-inspired computers. But before they can leave the lab, ...
