If like me, you're a newbie to FPGAs, and SoC FPGAs from Xilinx, the complexity of running an application talking to your IP from Linux can be quite daunting. I started by using petalinux from Xilinx to try and use an IP that I made using Vivado HLS (C to
In the midst of launching our crowd supply campaign for nRF52840 based board Blip, we decided to do a project with it which will show some of its capabilities. Blip is a development board for Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and 802.15.4 based wireless applications, based on the Nordic Semiconductor nRF52840
In the coming months, we are planning to launch our new nRF52840 based development board named Blip. I thought it would be interesting to do something visually and use Web Bluetooth in the process. For peoples who are curious about what blip is, It is a development board for Bluetooth
iCE Bling It's the same story every year. At the horizon is a loved one's birthday, or an anniversary, and I want to make them something special. Buying something won't do. Oh no, I have to design and build it myself. I would then start with a simple idea, and
Developing a BLE application requires a lot of domain specific knowledge. You need to learn a lot of languages that target specific platforms. Eg. Java or Kotlin for Android Native Application development, or Objective C or Swift for IOS development. Moreover, you need to be proficient in the tools, like
Introduction I worked for almost two decades in the software industry. In the early 2000s, I was developing applications on Windows, Linux, and various flavours of Unix. On the Windows side, we had Microsoft Visual Studio, MFC, NMake, and CL. On the Linux/Unix side, we had GCC, POSIX and various
If you are planning to buy a Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) board or want to incorporate BLE functionality in your product, then hackaBLE could be a great candidate for the job! hackaBLE is a tiny Open Source Nordic nRF52832 based BLE development board developed by Electronut Labs that you can
Last weekend, my colleagues and I decided to go on a trek to Kudremukh peak in the Western Ghats. We thought, how about recording the GPS data throughout the trek. We quickly assembled a GPS module with our upcoming board blip, which is a development board based on Nordic's nRF52840
This post will have enough information to help someone understand the startup code and all the intermediate files present in a bare metal C project for a microcontroller. This will be explained through a minimal blinky example for nRF52832, that pulls no external dependencies. Over here at Electronut Labs, we
