TI acquires Luminary Micro
16. May 2009 - 21:29 — adminTexas Instruments has acquired Luminary Micro, a market-leading supplier of ARM Cortex-M3-based 32-bit microcontrollers.
Microcontroller-based Web Radio
23. March 2009 - 20:30 — adminTwo simillar projects with one goal - a handy portable web radio, based on microcontroller (AVR or ARM), a VS1053 audio codec and Ethernet controller (built-in with the ARM version), with Power-over-Ethernet capability.
Video Frame Grabber
2. November 2008 - 13:47 — adminThe portable Video Frame Grabber records high-resolution camcorder frame grabs on a small flash memory card. The LM3S811-based device can grab frames from DVDs without connecting to a PC. The SD card, which stores frame grabs as BMPs, can be accessed with any SD card host.
ARM7TDMI projects
24. October 2008 - 21:44 — adminSome ARM projects from the Circuit Cellar's contest.
ARM Car locator
16. July 2008 - 0:20 — adminThis car locator is built around an LM3S811 microcontroller. It uses a GPS receiver to record geographical coordinates and a GSM modem to communicate with the user. If the car moves, the system sends an alert.
ARM Signal Generator
16. July 2008 - 0:14 — adminThe handy Signal Generator produces signals between 1 Hz and 10 kHz. The LM3S811-based system controls signal amplitude by changing the pulse-duty factor.
