Getting the hang of through-hole soldering is tricky for those of us tinkering at home with our irons, spools, flux, and, sometimes, braids. It’s almost reassuring, then, to learn that through-hole ...
A few days ago we reported on a new product for owners of the Raspberry Pi Zero, a set of solderless header pins that had a novel installation method involving a hammer. We were skeptical that they ...
How much can you cram into a 2.6 in x 1.2 in circuit board? You'd presume not much, but the Raspberry Foundation is trying to prove you wrong. First, it added built-in Wi-Fi to its teeny Raspberry Pi ...
This summer the Raspberry Pi Foundation launched a redesigned version of the low-cost, low-power mini-computer the team first launched two years earlier. The Model B+ had more USB port than the ...
Raspberry Pi enthusiasts looking for a quick way to add GPIO pins for prototyping that can be then easily removed once the project is finalised, are sure to be interested in a new PCB quick clip ...
Eager to get deeper into robotics after dipping my toe in the water with my BB-8 droid, I purchased a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B. The first step was to connect to it. But while it has built-in 802.11n ...
A Raspberry Pi can be found centric to 3D printers and other CNC machines—almost since the sale of the first Raspberry Pi. Wired had an article about it back in 2013! But can a Pi cut it as a CNC ...
The makers of the Banana Pi line of single-board computers clearly draw a bit of inspiration from the Raspberry Pi Foundation when it comes to naming their products. Some of their designs are also ...
Having worked in the engineering department of an electronics contract manufacturing company in the late 80s, I remember well the assembly lines that required both thru-hole and surface mount boards.
News of a new single-board computer from the Raspberry Pi Foundation is always exciting, and the Raspberry Pi 5 ($80 as tested) is unquestionably the most hype-worthy model yet. This revision to the ...
