The Arduino Nano Every is an evolution of the traditional Arduino Nano board but features a lot more powerful processor, the ATMega4809. This will allow you to make larger programs than with the Arduino Uno (it has 50% more program memory), and with a lot more variables (the RAM is 200% bigger). An Improved Arduino Nano If you used Arduino Nano in your projects in the past, the Nano Every is a pin-equivalent substitute. The main differences are a better processor and a micro-USB connector. The board comes in two options: with or without headers, allowing you to embed the Nano Every inside any kind of invention, including wearables. The board comes with tessellated connectors and no components on the B-side. These features allow you to solder the board directly onto your own design, minimizing the height of your whole prototype. Oh, and did we mention the improved price? Thanks to a revised manufacturing process, the Arduino Nano Every costs a fraction of the original Nano … what are you waiting for? Upgrade now!

A Guide to Powerful Programming for Embedded Systems You must be a well-rounded professional to excel in the ever-evolving, rapidly developing embedded design and programming industry. Simply put, when it comes to electronics design and programming, the more topics you can master, the more you’ll flourish at your workplace and at your personal workbench. This shouldn’t be a surprise, as the line between the skills of a hardware engineer and software engineer is blurring. The former should have a good grasp of programming in order to build efficient systems. The latter should understand the details of the design (whether it’s a physical or virtual application) for which he or she is writing code. Thus, to be successful, a modern professional electronics engineer must have a solid grasp of both hardware design and programming. Assembly Language Essentials is a matter-of-fact guide to Assembly that will introduce you to the most fundamental programming language of a processor. Unlike other resources about Assembly that focus exclusively on specific processors and platforms, this book uses the architecture of a fictional processor with its own hardware and instruction set. This enables you to consider the importance of Assembly language without having to deal with predetermined hardware or architectural restrictions. You’ll immediately find this thorough introduction to Assembly to be a valuable resource, whether you know nothing about the language or you have used it before. The only prerequisite is that you have a working knowledge of at least one higher-level programming language, such as C or Java. Assembly Language Essentials is an indispensible resource for electronics engineering professionals, academics, and advanced students looking to enhance their programming skills. The book provides the following, and more: An introduction to Assembly language and its functionality Significant definitions associated with Assembly language, as well as essential terminology pertaining to higher-level programming languages and computer architecture Important algorithms that may be built into high-level languages, but must be done the “hard way” in Assembly language — multiplication, division, and polynomial evaluation A presentation of Interrupt Service Routines with examples A free, downloadable Assembler program for experimenting with Assembly

The Raspberry Pi Global Shutter Camera is a specialised 1.6 MP camera from Raspberry Pi that is able to capture rapid motion without introducing artefacts typical of rolling shutter cameras. It is ideally suited to fast motion photography and to machine vision applications, where even small amounts of distortion can seriously degrade inference performance. With a large pixel size of 3.45 x 3.45 μm providing high light sensitivity, the Global Shutter Camera can operate with short exposure times (as low as 30 μs with adequate lighting), an advantage for high-speed photography. It features a 1.6 MP Sony IMX296 sensor, and it has the same C/CS-mount lens assembly as the Raspberry Pi High Quality Camera, for compatibility with the same broad variety of lenses. In common with other global shutter sensors, the IMX296 has a lower resolution than similarly sized rolling shutter sensors; a low pixel count is appropriate for machine vision applications, where high-resolution images are challenging to process in real time. The Global Shutter Camera's lower resolution means that with appropriate lens magnification, an image suitable for processing by a machine vision model can be captured natively. The Raspberry Pi Global Shutter Camera is compatible with any Raspberry Pi computer that has a CSI connector. Specifications Form factor 38 x 38 x 19.8 mm (29.5 mm adapter and dust cap) Weight 34 g (41 g with adapter and dust cap) Sensor Sony IMX296LQR-C Resolution 1.58 MP (color) Sensor size 6.3 mm (sensor diagonal) Pixel size 3.45 x 3.45 μm Output RAW10 Back focus length of lens Adjustable (12.5-22.4 mm) Lens standards CS-MountC-Mount (C-CS adapter included) IR cut filter Integrated Ribbon cable length 150 mm Included accessories C-CS mount adapterScrewdriver Tripod mount 1/4”-20 Included Raspberry Pi Global Shutter Camera C-CS mount adapter Screwdriver Ribbon cable (150 mm) Downloads Datasheet
