Some consumer-focused routers have for some time claimed to use Stateful Packet Inspection (SPI) in their firewalls. But the recent generation of boxes based on the ADMtek 5106 Home Gateway Controller ...

For certain applications, the use of a low-cost microcontroller (MCU) is a must, yet many of those applications need to interface with high data rate signals. The problem is that as the data rate of ...

Typically bit-banging an I/O line is the common method of driving the WS2812B (WS2811) RGB LEDs. However, this ties up precious microcontroller cycles while it waits around to flip a bit. A less ...

SPI is an interface, I dunno about the rest, but we do alot of work with SPI and I2C at work. If you got a pinout, you should be able to tell if they have the pins required for those interfaces (SCL ...

Take a leap the next time you use SPI and don’t poll for the busy flag. “What, are you crazy? That’s the whole point of the busy flag! It’s a quick check to make sure you don’t kill a byte waiting to ...
