Introduction A multimeter, whether analog or digital, is a crucial electronic device used for measuring different types of electrical properties, such as resistance, current, and voltage, of a circuit. The multimeter has a display where it shows the values depending on what is being measured. It’s a simple device to use, but not everyone knows […]

Transistors are semiconductor devices that control current flow, working as switches or amplifiers. Learn their parts, types (BJT, FET), operation, uses in electronics, pros/cons, and how to test them for performance.

Introduction A serial peripheral interface or SPI is a type of synchronous serial communication interface that is used for short distance data transfer from a master device to one or several slave devices. This type of system is common in embedded systems due to its high speed performance and simplicity as well. SPI operates on a […]

What is an Arduino? An Arduino is an open-source platform used for building electronic projects. It involves combining hardware, such as Arduino boards, and using a programming language to control the components connected to the boards. You can consider an Arduino as a microcontroller board that can be programmed to read inputs from devices, such […]
