Thanks to jeplers intrepid and unyielding efforts, we now have OV5640 camera module support in CircuitPython. This is a snazzy 5 MPixel camera module which can do JPEG encoding on-chip and auto levels. It's a rather nice camera and given you can always use it at lower res like 320x240, we think this is our pick. We got a few samples from the camera manufacturer and interestingly enough, we got one...

one thing thats annoying about electronics rework is how many hands are needed to hold all the tools: soldering wand, tweezers, paste syringe, hot air gun. this stand solves one annoyance: having to hold the hot air wand right over a spot to get it nice and toasty for repair. it can go high enough to work with a panavise, or low enough for the board to sit flat on the base. coming soon to the adaf...

"Do you have a vendor you could recommend for the antistatic foam blocks you use for products with pre-soldered male pin headers? We’re on the hunt for one and would be happy to take any advice you all have! - Thanks!"

In this project, you'll learn how to build an audio reactive LED matrix using the 13x9 IS31FL3741 LED matrix and Feather Sense nRF52840 board with CircuitPython. The Feather Sense nRF52840 features a built-in PDM MEMs microphone for audio input. Audio is sampled via the onboard PDM microphone. The sampled data is then visualized with color.

Last week we showed that the VL53L1X has the same shape and pinout as the VL53L0X, making it an easy addition to our collection of STEMMA QT boards. We ordered new boards with a different silkscreen and now its time to make a tester. Our sensor breakout testers follow a common process - we don't have a library or anything but we'll show how we test each element of a sensor! The Great Search - Anti...
