Out of curiosity, I bought a strain gauge sensor module after it appeared on sale. This write-up is fuzzy, since I decided to write based on a quick inspection of it. Have fun reading my little post ...

Recently, I exhausted my stock of common passive infrared (PIR) motion sensor modules and was looking for a new one to play with. I searched the web for a small type with self-contained electronics.

When it comes to testing microelectromechanical system devices and sensors, sometimes you have to shake and bake. and sensors are physically different from standard ICs. They require a specific type ...

Rohde & Schwarz launched Power Sensor Modules R&S NRP-Z27/-Z37 for its Measuring Receiver R&S FSMR. The modules, which include a power sensor with integrated power splitter, allow designers to ...

Raspberry Pi launched a follow-up to its Camera Module 3 with the Camera Module 3 Sensor Assembly. Now, Raspberry Pi users can put the camera sensors into their own custom form factors. The move ...

Why and how indoor air quality is an increasingly important metric. Details of the seven parameters assessed by this all-in-one module. The need for a fan to ensure consistent airflow. Quantitative ...

Just about every “getting started with microcontrollers” kit, Arduino or otherwise, includes an ultrasonic distance sensor module. Given the power of microcontrollers these days, it was only a matter ...

System-in-package (SiP) and other advanced packaging technologies are putting more components together in tighter spaces than previously seen. Often these packages are contained in a module, which is ...

A COVID-19 sensor developed at Johns Hopkins University could revolutionize virus testing by adding accuracy and speed to a process that frustrated many during the pandemic. In a new study published ...

The medium-format camera has narrowly edged Nikon's top-end SLR in DxO Labs' test of image sensor quality. Stephen Shankland worked at CNET from 1998 to 2024 and wrote about processors, digital ...
