Why do so many of us get nervous when public speaking? Communication expert Lawrence Bernstein says the key to dealing with the pressure is as simple as having a casual chat. He introduces the "coffee shop test" as a way to help you overcome nerves, connect with your audience and deliver a message that truly resonates. After the talk, Modupe explains a similar approach in academia called the "Grandma test," and how public speaking can be as simple as a conversation with grandma.

The Great Search – UV LEDs for Costuming 10:23

3 days ago10:23

10:23

We recently got a request to make LED sequins with bright UV LEDs for costuming projects using UV-reactive paints and textiles. Also known as 'blacklight' paint or fabric, these dyes glow fluorescent when exposed to UV light. 🔗 https://www.digikey.com/short/bndtdnbr 🔗 https://www.adafruit.com/search?q=led+sequin 🔗 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultraviolet However, not all UV LEDs will work! UV ranges from 100nm to 450nm, and some frequencies are used for curing or disinfection. For light effects, 365nm is the 'peak' frequency to look for. Let’s find a ~365nm SMT UV LED we can pick and place onto a small PCB for easy sewing. ✨🧵 ----------------------------------------- Visit the Adafruit shop online - http://www.adafruit.com LIVE CHAT IS HERE! http://adafru.it/discord Subscribe to Adafruit on YouTube: http://adafru.it/subscribe New tutorials on the Adafruit Learning System: http://learn.adafruit.com/ ----------------------------------------- #ElectronicsDesign #UVLED #TheGreatSearch…

EYE ON NPI – onsemi NIV3071 4-Channel eFuse Solution 7:58

7 days ago7:58

7:58

This week's EYE ON NPI is another onsemi device - this week we're looking at the NIV3071 4-Channel eFuse Solution (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/o/on-semi/niv3071-4-channel-efuse-solution) a power distribution manager that can lets you manage a product with a lot of power domains and supplies using just a couple GPIO pins. This week's product is an upgrade from the covered-earlier NIS5420 (https://blog.adafruit.com/2021/09/09/eye-on-npi-onsemi-efuse-porfolio-eyeonnpi-digikey-onsemi-digikey-adafruit/) - with a higher 8~60V input range, and 4 independently-controlled channels. When people first meet fuses, they usually see and think of classic 'wire' fuses (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/bel-fuse-inc/5ST-200-R/1009012) with ceramic or glass or thermoplastic bodies, and a thin wire inside. When too much current goes through the fuse wire, it gets hotter and hotter and eventually melts, cutting off the load from the source voltage. These kinds of fuses are super cheap, very-very-low resistance, easy to find at any hardware store, and there's lots of suppliers with various current limits. However, they're one-shot usage only and only good for over-current, can't act as switches/sequencers. You need to have a way for customers to access the fuse in order to replace it. For those reasons, a lot of engineers prefer going with 'poly fuses' - fuses that are easy to mount into a circuit that auto-reset after a time (usually minutes) so that a temporary overload doesn't make the device a brick so quickly. For example, we have a chunky 24V 5A hold / 10 A trip polyfuse (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/littelfuse-inc/2016L260-24MR/6347052) on the Sparkle Motion board design (https://www.adafruit.com/product/6100), designed to protect folks who accidentally have a short in the output LED strings, and want to avoid damaging the power supply or main board. Poly-fuses are a great step-up from plain wire fuses: they're fairly inexpensive, available from lots of suppliers with various current limits, and best of all the fuse auto-resets after cooling down. However, like wire fuses, they're good for over-current, can't be reset, and have some variation depending on ambient temperature: you may trip 50% higher if its cold, or lower if its hot. Thus the next generation of fuses: eFuses (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/o/on-semi/efuse-automotive-circuit-protection)! As you could imagine, these are pure-silicon fuses, with a chunky N-FET that acts as the cut-off switch, and current limiting managed as an analog feedback loop that will cut the FET when too high. We get the resetability of a polyfuse, with additional control like sequence-able enable pins and under-voltage lockout. Note that some eFuses also can do over-voltage clamps and negative voltage protection, but the NIV3071 (https://www.digikey.com/short/3v0thr1p) doesn't contain these protections, so you may want to implement those protections separately. Especially designed for automotive power systems, which tend to be 12V/24V/36V/48V multiples, the NIV3071 (https://www.digikey.com/short/3v0thr1p) is AEC−Q100 qualified and PPAP capable (https://www.onsemi.com/pub/collateral/tnd6284-d.pdf). The use of eFuses is becoming popular as cars have become more computerized and electrified, with each 'zone' in a car (https://www.onsemi.com/solutions/automotive/zonal-architecture) - such as entertainment, communication, lighting, charging and sensors - all needing separate power management. If you don't need automotive qualifications, the functionally-compatible NIS3071 (https://www.digikey.com/short/9v2dmvhf) is a couple of cents cheaper. This family of eFuses is good for up to 60V and 2.5A per channel, but if you need more per channel you can just double or triple them up to add 2.5A per. If you want less per channel, to protect low-power devices from overheating or accidental shorts, the current limit can be reduced with an external resistor. And of course, you can turn on/off each channel with a GPIO enable pin: great for sequencing your power chain to reduce stress on the power supply from inrush current, or to allow each section to stabilize and go through self-test. For your next power supply design, the onsemi NIV3071 (https://www.digikey.com/short/3v0thr1p) and NIS3071 (https://www.digikey.com/short/9v2dmvhf) offer high-voltage, high-current control in a small package and a great price. Both are in stock right now at DigiKey for immediate shipment, so you can book today and start integration by tomorrow afternoon.…

The Great Search – 4.7 µH RF Inductor Q greater than 20 at 25 MHz 9:53

10 days ago9:53

9:53

For our SI4732 radio breakout, we're following the application note (https://www.skyworksinc.com/-/media/Skyworks/SL/documents/public/application-notes/AN383.pdf) for antenna setup. It specifies a low-pass filter inductor of 4.7 µH with a Q factor greater than 20 at 25 MHz and minimal DC resistance. The recommended part, COILCRAFT 1008CS-472GLB (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/coilcraft/1008CS-472XGRC/15794541), is somewhat pricey. Let's explore some alternatives! Recommended Alternatives: Murata LQW2UAS4R7J00L: 4.7 µH, Q=20 @25 MHz, 260 mA, 4 Ω DCR, 1008 package. Abracon AISC-1008-4R7J-T: 4.7 µH, Q=20 @25 MHz, 260 mA, 4 Ω DCR, 1008 package.

We wrote a library for the STSPIN220 (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/stmicroelectronics/STSPIN220/6137574) — this is a stepper motor driver like the A4988 (https://www.adafruit.com/product/6109) or TMC2209 (https://www.adafruit.com/product/6121), but for low voltage motors. One interesting thing about it is it uses the step/dir and two mode pins to set the micro-steps, from 1 to 1/256. Since that gets a little confusing, we figured a driver (https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_STSPIN) would be worth doing. The table was definitely annoying to decode, and higher microsteps started overflowing 16-bit variables, but now we've got it spinning happily! #anthropic #claude #sonnet Visit the Adafruit shop online - http://www.adafruit.com ----------------------------------------- LIVE CHAT IS HERE! http://adafru.it/discord Subscribe to Adafruit on YouTube: http://adafru.it/subscribe New tutorials on the Adafruit Learning System: http://learn.adafruit.com/ -----------------------------------------…

EYE ON NPI - onsemi ARX383CS 1/8-inch 0.3 Mp Global Shutter CMOS Digital Image Sensor 8:07

14 days ago8:07

This week's EYE ON NPI is renowned world-wide, it's onsemi's ARX383CS 1/8-inch 0.3 Mp Global Shutter CMOS Digital Image Sensor (https://www.digikey.com/short/45p5vfvr), a tiny pick-and-placeable vision sensor that is perfect for your next AI or robotics - or AI robotics - product! With the global shutter, you'll be able to get clear and complete photos each time, no matter your lighting and subject speed. We stock low-cost simple camera sensors like the OV5640 at the Adafruit shop (https://www.adafruit.com/product/5839) these cameras can do color, up to 720p or greater, and can even do internal JPEG compression before piping the image out of an 8-bit parallel interface. One thing that you'll quickly realized about these cameras is that they, like almost all cameras used for basic photography are rolling-shutter type. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rolling_shutter) That means the sensor reads each individual pixel in a row before moving to the next column, perfectly fine as long as the thing you're photographing is moving slowly compared to the speed of the sensor iterator. For robotics vision projects, this often gives smeared or blurry images, and since time = money and thus you need to run the motor as fast as possible. For example, our SM481 pick and place (https://www.hanwha-pm.com/en-mo/product/detail.asp?product_info_id=189&cate_id=50) can do up to 40,000 components per hour, each one with vision inspection: that's 10 a second! Whether you are building the fastest Rubik's-cube solver (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=59qgzzSD1tk) or a license plate reader (https://www.digikey.com/short/45p5vfvr) getting crisp-clear full-frame images is essential to make sure you get the best image. The ARX383CS (https://www.digikey.com/short/45p5vfvr) is sold as a chip-scale-package, meant for pick and placing directly onto a PCB or FPC. It'll need various power supplies and clock signal, as well as configuration over I2C and of course a lens and lighting. Once set up, images can be captured and sent over DSI/MIPI single-lane, at VGA 640x480 up to 120 FPS or quarter-VGA 320x240 up to 245 FPS. The available datasheet doesn't have all the details, you'll need to contact onsemi to sign an NDA for the full specifications. onsemi has also developed a read-to-go plug-in camera module that you can quickly integrate called the PRISM1M-ARX383CSSM130110-GEVB (https://www.onsemi.com/design/evaluation-board/PRISM1M-ARX383CSSM130110-GEVB) which is not in stock right now at DigiKey yet (https://www.digikey.com/short/zfm5d7tj) but we're sure that if you need it you can try contacting DigiKey's sales reps and they'll be able to get you samples and quantity pricing. If you don't mind a bulkier eval board, the ARX383CSSM28SMKAH3-GEVB (https://www.digikey.com/short/78p2c3dq) is available immediately for purchase. If you've needed to add fast video or photography to your next product, the onsemi ARX383CS 1/8-inch 0.3 Mp Global Shutter CMOS Digital Image Sensor (https://www.digikey.com/short/45p5vfvr) is an excellent way to add a VGA global-shutter sensor with 125 FPS VGA-resolution output and I2C control. Best of all DigiKey has tons in stock for immediate shipment, book today and they'll send you as many as you want in the blink of an eye so you can start getting high speed video integrated by tomorrow afternoon.
