Opera Cake is an antenna switching add-on board for HackRF One that is configured with command-line software either manually, or for automated port switching based on frequency or time. It has two primary ports, each connected to any of eight secondary ports, and is optimized for use as a pair of 1x4 switches or as a single 1x8 switch. Its recommended frequency range is 1 MHz to 4 GHz.
When HackRF One is used to transmit, Opera Cake can automatically route its output to the appropriate transmit antennas, as well as any external filters, amplifiers, etc. No changes are needed to the existing SDR software, but full control from the host is available.
Opera Cake also enhances the HackRF One’s use as a spectrum analyzer across its entire operating frequency range of 1 MHz to 4 GHz. Antenna switching works with the existing hackrf_sweep feature, which can sweep the whole tuning range in less than a second. Automatic switching mid-sweep enables the use of multiple antennas when sweeping a wide frequency range.

The Mendocino Motor AR O-8 is a magnetically levitated, solar powered electric motor as a kit.
Light Becomes Movement
The solar-powered Mendocino motor seems to float in the air. At first glance, you can't see why the rotor is turning at all. This is the magic of the motor.
The Lorentz force is a very small electrical force. In a classroom setting, it is detected by a current swing in the magnetic field. With the Mendocino motor, we have succeeded in developing a beautiful application that uses this weak force for propulsion. Due to its concealed base magnet, the motor will fascinate technically inclined observers.
In bright sunlight, the motor can reach a speed of up to 1,000 rpm. More impressive, however, is that even the faint glow of an ample tea light (D = 6 cm with a flame height of about 2 cm) is sufficient to drive the motor. The motor is not yet an alternative source of energy, even though it looks tempting. Presumably, it will remain an attractive model until a resourceful mind disproves this assumption.
Dimensions
All solar cells 65 x 20 mm
Mirror diameter: 25 mm
Rotor weight: approx. 150 g
Model length: 160 mm
Model width: 85 mm
Frame height: approx. 85 mm
Frame material: black acrylic
Tube made of highly polished aluminum
Mirror color: silver
The Mendocino motor’s easy-to-follow instruction manual includes more than 70 illustrations. It describes a safe and practical approach to construction but also gives you the freedom to try your solutions.
Partly Pre-Assembled Kit
A portion of the kit comes pre-assembled. Bonding the borosilicate glass pane to the acrylic surface requires specialized knowledge and aids. We do not want to impose this on the hobbyist. For instance, the base magnet is attached to the aluminum tube.
As a hobbyist, you will need some know-how and appropriate tools: carpet knife, soldering iron and tin, hot glue, pliers, and a clamp or ferrule to fix the supplied assembly aid. A lot of fun is guaranteed!

A Hands-On Lab Course
This introduction to circuit design is unusual in several respects. First, it offers not just explanations, but a full course. Each of the twenty-five sessions begins with a discussion of a particular sort of circuit followed by the chance to try it out and see how it actually behaves. Accordingly, students understand the circuit's operation in a way that is deeper and much more satisfying than the manipulation of formulas. Second, it describes circuits that more traditional engineering introductions would postpone: on the third day, we build a radio receiver; on the fifth day, we build an operational amplifier from an array of transistors. The digital half of the course centers on applying microcontrollers, but gives exposure to Verilog, a powerful Hardware Description Language. Third, it proceeds at a rapid pace but requires no prior knowledge of electronics. Students gain intuitive understanding through immersion in good circuit design.
The course is intensive, teaching electronics in day-at-a-time practical doses so that students can learn in a hands-on way.
The integration of discussion of design with a chance to try the circuits means students learn quickly.
The course has been tried and tested, and proven successful through twenty-five years of teaching.
The book is practical: it avoids mathematics and mathematical arguments and even includes a complete list of parts needed in the laboratory exercises, including where and how to buy them.
The much-anticipated new edition of 'Learning the Art of Electronics' is here! It defines a hands-on course, inviting the reader to try out the many circuits that it describes. Several new labs (on amplifiers and automatic gain control) have been added to the analog part of the book, which also sees an expanded treatment of meters. Many labs now have online supplements. The digital sections have been rebuilt. An FPGA replaces the less-capable programmable logic devices, and a powerful ARM microcontroller replaces the 8051 previously used. The new microcontroller allows for more complex programming (in C) and more sophisticated applications, including a lunar lander, a voice recorder, and a lullaby jukebox. A new section explores using an Integrated Development Environment to compile, download, and debug programs. Substantial new lab exercises, and their associated teaching material, have been added, including a project reflecting this edition's greater emphasis on programmable logic.

To help beginners learn and develop Lora technology better, a Lora development board has been designed specifically for beginners, which uses RP2040 as the main control and is equipped with the RA-08H module that supports Lora and LoRaWAN protocols to help users realize development. RP2040 is a dual-core, high-performance, and low-power ARM Cortex-M0+ architecture chip, suitable for IoT, robots, control, embedded systems, and other application fields. RA-08H is made from the Semtech-authorized ASR6601 RF chip, which supports the 868 MHz frequency band, has a 32 MHz MCU built-in, which has more powerful functions than ordinary RF modules, and also supports AT command control. This board retains various functional interfaces for development, such as the Crowtail interface, the common PIN to PIN header that leads out GPIO ports, and provides 3.3 V and 5 V outputs, suitable for the development and use of commonly used sensors and electronic modules on the market. In addition, the board also reserves RS485 interface, SPI, I²C, and UART interfaces, which can be compatible with more sensors/modules. In addition to the basic development interfaces, the board also integrates some commonly used functions, such as a buzzer, a custom button, red-yellow-green three-color indicator lights, and a 1.8-inch SPI interface LCD screen with a resolution of 128x160. Features Uses RP2040 as the main controller, with two 32-bit ARM Cortex M0+ processor cores (dual-core), and provides more powerful performance Integrates the RA-08H module with 32 MHz MCU, supports the 868 MHz frequency band and AT command control Abundant external interface resources, compatible with Crowtail series modules and other common interface modules on the market Integrates commonly used functions like buzzer, LED light, LCD display and custom button, making it more concise and convenient when creating projects Onboard 1.8-inch 128x160 SPI-TFT-LCD, ST7735S driver chip Compatible with Arduino/Micropython, easy to carry out different projects Specifications Main Chip Raspberry Pi RP2040, built-in 264 KB SRAM, onboard 4 MB Flash Processor Dual Core Arm Cortex-M0+ @ 133 MHz RA-08H Frequency band 803-930 MHz RA-08H Interface External antenna, SMA interface or IPEX first-generation interface LCD Display Onboard 1.8-inch 128x160SPI-TFT-LCD LCD Resolution 128x160 LCD Driver ST7735S (4-wire SPI) Development environment Arduino/MicroPython Interfaces 1x passive buzzer 4x user-defined buttons 6x programmable LEDs 1x RS485 communication interface 8x 5 V Crowtail interfaces (2x analog interfaces, 2x digital interfaces, 2x UART, 2x I²C) 12x 5 V universal pin header IO 14x 3.3 V universal pin header IO 1x 3.3 V/5 V switchable SPI 1x 3.3 V/5 V switchable UART 3x 3.3 V/5 V switchable I²C Working input voltage USB 5 V/1 A Operating temperature -10°C ~ 65°C Dimensions 102 x 76.5 mm (L x W) Included 1x Lora RA-08H Development Board 1x Lora Spring Antenna (868 MHz) 1x Lora Rubber Antenna (868 Mhz) Downloads Wiki
RF circuit design is now more important than ever as we find ourselves in an increasingly wireless world. Radio is the backbone of today’s wireless industry with protocols such as Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, WiMax, and ZigBee. Most, if not all, mobile devices have an RF component and this book tells the reader how to design and integrate that component in a very practical fashion.
