The Raspberry Pi Foundation today started rolling out an update that brings its devices to the Linux 4.19 kernel. Its diminutive computers are currently on the Linux 4.14 kernel, so in updating to 4.19, it should become significantly easier for Raspberry Pi patches to be developed. Phoronix reported that the Raspberry Pi Foundation worked on the upgrade […]

I²CDriver is an easy-to-use, open source tool for controlling I²C devices. It works with Windows, Mac, and Linux, and has a built-in color screen that shows a live “dashboard” of all the I²C activity. It uses a standard FTDI USB serial chip to talk to the PC, so no special drivers need to be installed.

The FT232 USB-to-serial converter is one of the most commonly-used methods of adding USB functionality to small projects, but recently I found that these chips are capable of sending more than just serial signals. With some creative programming, individual output pins can be big-banged to emulate a clock, data, and chip select line to control

Building an Internet of Things based system has always been an exciting art that usually comes with one major challenge to overcome – Connectivity. A smart system or an even intelligent system that collects data without having any network capability can’t be called an IoT system and it’s that device connectivity that gives it the
