  • Introducing the I2Connect Family of I2C Modules

    TTB #33: Introducing the I2Connect Family of I2C Modules

    Discover the new PTSolns I2Connect Series, a growing family of plug and play I2C expansion modules designed for rapid embedded development. Built around Qwiic compatible connectors and fully compatible with STEMMA QT, every module supports both 3.3 V and 5 V systems while sharing a consistent form factor for easy integration. The first three releases include the AHT20 Temperature & Humidity sensor, VEML7700 Ambient Light sensor, and 2 Mbit EEPROM memory module. Each includes a dedicated open source library that installs directly from the PTSolns IDE or Arduino IDE Library Manager, helping you get started in minutes.

  • How to Select the Right Microcontroller

    TTB #31: How to Select the Right Microcontroller

    Choosing the right microcontroller isn't about buying the fastest or most expensive option. It's about selecting a platform that meets your project's requirements while remaining easy to develop with. In this guide, I share the process I use when designing real embedded systems, from evaluating peripherals and voltage compatibility to considering documentation, development tools, and long term availability. You'll also find practical examples from my own projects, common mistakes to avoid, and recommendations for beginners and experienced makers alike. Whether you're building an IoT device, robot, drone, or home automation project, this guide will help you choose confidently.
