A review on Seeed Studio pH and EC Sensor Kits – Part 2
This is the second part of the two-parts review on Seeed Studio's ph and EC Sensor Kits. In this part, I will take a closer look at EC Sensor Kit and how to measure EC with an Arduino. Continue reading "A review on Seeed Studio pH and EC Sensor Kits – Part 2"
A review on Seeed Studio pH and EC Sensor Kits – Part 1
For the past several months, I've been searching for a cost-effective pH and EC sensor kit and I evaluate Seeed Studio's new pH sensor kit and EC sensor kit this week. Continue reading "A review on Seeed Studio pH and EC Sensor Kits – Part 1"
ESP-01 Range Test with ESP-Now Protocol
I recently did a range test over a pair of ESP-01 running ESP-Now, by no means its a comprehensive test, but it gives a better understanding of ESP-01 wireless performance and the ESP-Now protocol. Continue reading "ESP-01 Range Test with ESP-Now Protocol"
A better way to use ESP-01 as WiFi shield
I like the low price of ESP-01, but I don't quite like to use it in my project because its design always make me feel like that I'm dealing with an unfinished product. Over the past a couple of months, out of necessity for one of my project, I was forced to spent some time to figure out a better way to use ESP-01 as a WiFi shield. Continue reading "A better way to use ESP-01 as WiFi shield"
Getting started with STM32 and things you need to be aware of
Getting started with STM32 development isn’t as smooth as setting up an Arduino or ESP32 for me for various reasons, and I hope my experience in setting it up, and the things you need to be aware of will help any one interested with this article. Continue reading "Getting started with STM32 and things you need to be aware of"
Build an ESP32 Web Server and IR Remote
My TV remote control is corroded by leaking battery and no longer working reliably, so I decided to build my own TV remote control with an ESP32 that running as a web server and IR remote control so that I can uses my iPhone to interactive with it via web browser. Continue reading "Build an ESP32 Web Server and IR Remote"
Using a Thermistor with Arduino and Unexpected ESP32 ADC Non-linearity
I recently accidentally bought 5 pieces of thermistor, so I tried it out on both of my Arduino and ESP32 modules, and I have surprise findings on both Arduino and enchanted unexpected ESP32's ADC linearity issue.
