Develop innovative hardware-based projects in C The Raspberry Pi has traditionally been programmed using Python. Although this is a very powerful language, many programmers may not be familiar with it. C on the other hand is perhaps the most commonly used programming language and all embedded microcontrollers can be programmed using it. The C language is taught in most technical colleges and universities and almost all engineering students are familiar with using it with their projects. This book is about using the Raspberry Pi with C to develop a range of hardware-based projects. Two of the most popular C libraries, wiringPi and pigpio are used. The book starts with an introduction to C and most students and newcomers will find this chapter invaluable. Many projects are provided in the book, including using Wi-Fi and Bluetooth to establish communication with smartphones. Many sensor and hardware-based projects are included. Both wiringPi and pigpio libraries are used in all projects. Complete program listings are given with full explanations. All projects have been fully tested and work. The following hardware-based projects are provided in the book: Using sensors Using LCDs I²C and SPI buses Serial communication Multitasking External and timer interrupts Using Wi-Fi Webservers Communicating with smartphones Using Bluetooth Sending data to the cloud Program listings of all Raspberry Pi projects developed in this book are available on the Elektor website. Readers can download and use these programs in their projects. Alternatively, they can customize them to suit their applications.

32 new Projects, Practical Examples and Exercises with the Elektor Arduino Nano MCCAB Training Board Electronics and microcontroller technology offer the opportunity to be creative. This practical microcontroller course provides you with the chance to bring your own Arduino projects and experience such moments of success. Ideally, everything works as you imagined when you switch it on for the first time. In practice, however, things rarely work as expected. At that point, you need knowledge to efficiently search for and find the reason for the malfunction. In this book for advanced users, we delve deep into the world of microcontrollers and the Arduino IDE to learn new procedures and details, enabling you to successfully tackle and solve even more challenging situations. With this book, the author gives the reader the necessary tools to create projects independently and also to be able to find errors quickly. Instead of just offering ready-made solutions, he explains the background, the hardware used, and any tools required. He sets tasks in which the reader contributes their own creativity and writes the Arduino sketch themselves. If you don’t have a good idea and get stuck, there is, of course, a suggested solution for every project and every task, along with the corresponding software, which is commented on and explained in detail in the book. This practical course will teach you more about the inner workings of the Arduino Nano and its microcontroller. You will get to know hardware modules that you can use to realize new and interesting projects. You will familiarize yourself with software methods such as ‘state machines,’ which can often be used to solve problems more easily and clearly. The numerous practical projects and exercise sketches are once again realized on the Arduino Nano MCCAB Training Board, which you may already be familiar with from the course book ‘Microcontrollers Hands-on Course for Arduino Starters’, and which contains all the hardware peripherals and operating elements we need for the input/output operations of our sketches. Readers who do not yet own the Arduino Nano MCCAB Training Board can purchase the required hardware separately, or alternatively, build it on a breadboard.

For Raspberry Pi, ESP32 and nRF52 with Python, Arduino and Zephyr Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) radio chips are ubiquitous from Raspberry Pi to light bulbs. BLE is an elaborate technology with a comprehensive specification, but the basics are quite accessible. A progressive and systematic approach will lead you far in mastering this wireless communication technique, which is essential for working in low power scenarios. In this book, you’ll learn how to: Discover BLE devices in the neighborhood by listening to their advertisements. Create your own BLE devices advertising data. Connect to BLE devices such as heart rate monitors and proximity reporters. Create secure connections to BLE devices with encryption and authentication. Understand BLE service and profile specifications and implement them. Reverse engineer a BLE device with a proprietary implementation and control it with your own software. Make your BLE devices use as little power as possible. This book shows you the ropes of BLE programming with Python and the Bleak library on a Raspberry Pi or PC, with C++ and NimBLE-Arduino on Espressif’s ESP32 development boards, and with C on one of the development boards supported by the Zephyr real-time operating system, such as Nordic Semiconductor's nRF52 boards. Starting with a very little amount of theory, you’ll develop code right from the beginning. After you’ve completed this book, you’ll know enough to create your own BLE applications.

Eén ding hebben alle elektronische schakelingen en apparaten gemeen: de werking ervan staat of valt met de voeding. Alleen al daarom verdient deze deelschakeling speciale aandacht. Dit boek behandelt principes en schakelingen uit de praktijk van de voedingstechniek. Geheel in overeenstemming met de huidige trend gaat de auteur in het bijzonder in op 'mobiele' voedingen en op de techniek van schakelende voedingen. Ook wordt aandacht besteed aan het feit dat constante-stroombronnen ten opzichte van spanningsbronnen een steeds belangrijker rol gaan spelen. Naast de vereiste theoretische achtergronden en principes voor het ontwerpen en bouwen van eigen voedingsschakelingen biedt dit boek ook praktische toepassingsvoorbeelden, zoals het vervangen van defecte nettransformatoren, de voeding voor elektronica tijdens fietstochten of het aansturen van LED‘s in de verlichtingstechniek. Auteur Franz Peter Zantis is afgestudeerd als ingenieur communicatietechniek en houdt zich als elektronicus bezig met energie-installaties. Tijdens een onderzoeksproject heeft hij zich grondig verdiept in de stroomvoorziening van zelfstandig werkende apparaten en hij heeft talrijke artikelen over schakelende voedingen gepubliceerd.

Für viele Audiopuristen sind Röhrenverstärker noch immer – oder wieder erneut – das Nonplusultra in der Audioverstärkertechnik überhaupt. Gutes Aussehen gepaart mit einem unübertroffenen Klangerlebnis – so die Meinung vieler Audiofreaks – sind hierfür ausschlaggebend. Tatsächlich erleben seit vielen Jahren die "totgesagten Röhren" eine für viele unerwartete Renaissance; das gilt im professionellen als auch im Hobbybereich. Die Kombination von klassischer Technik mit modernen Komponenten haben zur Wiederbelebung der Röhrenverstärker beigetragen; so auch der durch den Autor entwickelte "Ringkern-Ausgangstransformator". Über das Wie und Warum solcher Ausgangsübertrager gibt das Buch ausreichend Auskunft. Dazu zählen Begriffserläuterungen und auch die genaue technische Funktionsbeschreibung in Zusammenarbeit zwischen Röhren, Ausgangstransformator und Lautsprecher. Schließlich folgen noch komplette Baubeschreibungen: vom einfachen 10-W- bis zum Highend-100-W-Röhrenverstärker. Dieses E-Buch beschreibt innovative Lösungen für eine perfekte Audioqualität. Sowohl der Pragmatiker, der sein Gerät selbst baut, wie auch der Theoretiker, den die Komplexität von Transformatoren, Röhrenverstärkern und die Verarbeitung von Audiosignalen interessiert, finden Gefallen an diesem Buch.
