STmicroelectronics’ wireless IoT & wearable sensor development kit ‘SensorTile.box’ is a portable multi-sensor circuit board housed in a plastic box and developed by STMicroelectronics. It is equipped with a high-performance 32-bit ARM Cortex-M4 processor with DSP and FPU, and various sensor modules, such as accelerometer, gyroscope, temperature sensor, humidity sensor, atmospheric pressure sensor, microphone, and so on. SensorTile.box is ready to use with wireless IoT and Bluetooth connectivity that can easily be used with an iOS or Android compatible smartphone, regardless of the level of expertise of the users. SensorTile.box is shipped with a long-life battery and all the user has to do is connect the battery to the circuit to start using the box. The SensorTile.box can be operated in three modes: Basic mode, Expert mode, and Pro mode. Basic mode is the easiest way of using the box since it is pre-loaded with demo apps and all the user has to do is choose the required apps and display or plot the measured data on a smartphone using an app called STE BLE Sensor. In Expert mode users can develop simple apps using a graphical wizard provided with the STE BLE Sensor. Pro mode is the most complex mode allowing users to develop programs and upload them to the SensorTile.box. This book is an introduction to the SensorTile.box and includes the following: Brief specifications of the SensorTile.box; description of how to install the STE BLE Sensor app on an iOS or Android compatible smartphone required to communicate with the box. Operation of the SensorTile.box in Basic mode is described in detail by going through all of the pre-loaded demo apps, explaining how to run these apps through a smartphone. An introduction to the Expert mode with many example apps developed and explained in detail enabling users to develop their own apps in this mode. Again, the STE BLE Sensor app is used on the smartphone to communicate with the SensorTile.box and to run the developed apps. The book then describes in detail how to upload the sensor data to the cloud. This is an important topic since it allows the sensor measurements to be accessed from anywhere with an Internet connection, at any time. Finally, Pro mode is described in detail where more experienced people can use the SensorTile.box to develop, debug, and test their own apps using the STM32 open development environment (STM32 ODE). The Chapter explains how to upload the developed firmware to the SensorTile.box using several methods. Additionally, the installation and use of the Unicleo-GUI package is described with reference to the SensorTile.box. This PC software package enables all of the SensorTile.box sensor measurements to be displayed or plotted in real time on the PC.

The Piccolino rapid development board can be used to design microcontroller circuits quickly. The Piccolino has a fast 16f887 PIC microcontroller, voltage regulator, and communications module, and can be easily extended using its four headers. This e-book contains 30 projects based on the Piccolino. We'll use its unique communications facilities and get the Piccolino to communicate with programs on a PC. On the PC, we use the free programming language Small Basic. You can use this to create Windows programs with buttons and graphs quickly. You will learn how to analyze components such as inductors, capacitors, and OPAMPs, and how to display the measurement results in a graphical format. This will help you to design your circuits easily. We will then start to adapt to the Piccolino. We'll add components to it to make it more powerful, with extra features such as flow control and digital to analog conversion. The clear instructions will enable you to design and build your adaptations. This way you can make your custom designed Piccolino. We'll end up making an extension: a PCB that that can be mounted on the Piccolino headers. As an example, we'll design and build an extension for an LCD. You can use the included board layout to make your PCB or have it made for you. At the same time, you will learn how to make your extensions. The only limitation is your imagination! The clear descriptions along with circuit diagrams and photos, will make the building of these projects an enjoyable experience. Each project has a clear explanation of the reasons why it was designed in a particular way. This helps you learn a lot about the Piccolino, as well as Small Basic, and the components that are used in this e-book. You can adapt the projects to suit your requirements or combine several projects.

Verstehen und effektiv einsetzen Was in der Elektronik geschieht, ist mit bloßem Auge unsichtbar. Das Instrument, mit dem sich elektrische Signale präzise visualisieren lassen und die Effekte der Elektronik für uns sichtbar werden, ist das Oszilloskop. Leider wagt man sich beim Einstieg in die Elektronik oft ohne Oszilloskop vor. Man tappt dann im Dunkeln, sowohl praktisch als auch gedanklich. Die erste Beobachtung eines elektrischen Signals auf einem Bildschirm ist eine Offenbarung. Niemand möchte dieses Erlebnis danach noch einmal missen. Es gibt kein Zurück mehr. Wer in der Elektronik mit Freude und Verständnis vorankommen möchte, braucht unbedingt ein Oszilloskop. Dann stellt sich zunächst die Frage: Wie wählt man das richtige Oszilloskop aus? Und kaum ist diese Frage beantwortet, tauchen bereits die nächsten auf, die sich letztlich auf eine zentrale Frage reduzieren lassen: Wie nutzt man das Oszilloskop so, dass die Anzeige die Realität der Signale korrekt widerspiegelt? Rémy Mallard ist ein leidenschaftlicher Vermittler komplexer technischer Themen mit dem Talent, diese verständlich und fesselnd zu präsentieren. In diesem Buch beantwortet er wichtige Fragen zur Verwendung eines Oszilloskops und bietet zahlreiche Anleitungen, um die elektrischen Signale elektronischer Systeme zu erforschen und zu verstehen. Dank seines verständlichen Stils und seiner praktischen Einblicke ist dieses Buch ein wertvolles Werkzeug für alle, die ihr Elektronikwissen vertiefen möchten.
