PCBWay 4th PCB Design Contest

Image
  We are glad to announce that our 4th PCB design contest is ongoing!  This year, we have mainly 2 themes of the entries: One is IoT (Internet of Things), which will include home automation, wearable. The other one is robotics, which could be combined with smart cars, drones, or other automated projects. If you don’t have any ideas on the above two topics, we also encourage you to play freely and bring us surprises in the projects you are good at! Our project release time is from Aug 9nd,2021 to Nov,30th,2021, projects should be uploaded within the time frame, otherwise, the submissions will be disqualified, and we will announce the final result in mid-December. Someone will definitely ask what are the rewards for this competition? Don't worry, we have sincerely prepared prizes and gifts worth than $6,000 for contestants to compete: The First Prize 1 winner $1500 Cash + $200 Coupon + Raspberry Pi 4G *1 The Second Prize 2 winners $1000 Cash + $100 Coupon + Raspberry Pi 3 B+ *1  Th

Making IoT projects with ESP32 — — Innovation & Implementation S2E6

  ESP32 is a popular and powerful module with Wi-Fi & dual-mode Bluetooth capabilities. Our brilliant PCBWayers made a lot of amazing projects based on it. Today let’s check them with Lesley and Zoey! 1.QuinLED-Dig-Quad Intermit.Tech This attracting light strip designed by “Quindor”, based on ESP-32. One of the unique features of this project is that it’s based on the same PCB, on which you can switch ESP32 and ESP8266 at the same time. 2.ESP Matrix Board — LED Dot Matrix Clock WiFi Android App This project designed by “Bluino”, no need of programming skill or Laptop to program. Just need Android phone to upload sketch/firmware to NodeMCU via USB OTG. As  w e can see, it’s easy to build, just need a NodeMCU ESP8266, MAX7219 LED Dot Matrix Panel and other components. It runs completely autonomously and be configured, controlled via an Android app, with the app you can configure along with setting ESPMatrix device easily with a simple interface. 3.

Amazing DIY Raspberry Pi Projects — -Innovation & Implementation S2E5

Image
  Since Raspberry Pi’s launch in 2012, it has been sold 30 million worldwide in the eight years. The reason why Raspberry PI gains many fans in the electric area because it aims to make and sell inexpensive, single-board computers that are easy to use and ultimately become tools to boost people’s interest in computer programming. Let’s enjoy some DIY Raspberry PI projects made by our PCBWayers! 1. Homemade Game Console- “NinTIMdo RP” Raspberry PI are for instance port a ble with many different systems. In fact, we are all familiar with the Nintendo brand. Super Smash Bros, Zelda and so on are the games that many of us have grown up with. One of our Community member “TimEE” DIY his own “NinTIMdo RP” based on Raspberry PI. This project is to create a gaming system that could as well double as a portable computer. Using 3D modeling to make professional looking cases, and interfaces with the 7-inch touch screen on the front to display. 2. Commodore 64 Pi1541 Commodore 64 was central to man

11 Highlights of PCBWay’s Unusual 2020

Image
  Dear All PCBWayers, 2020 is an unusual year for all of us. Back to February, under the great control of the epidemic and on the premise of safety, our factory resumed production. Thanks for all the warm care and encouragement from our PCBWayers during the outbreak of COVID-19. At the same time, we collect and sent free masks for pcbwayers to express our sincere gratefulness. We always believe that we can conquer it together. Let us pay tribute to the hard-won good life. Let’s see what happened this year in PCBWay. 1.Quick-order PCB This ye a r, we have launched the Quick-order PCB service. So that you can upload gerber files & autofill parameters. The system will automatically fill in the data according to the file. 2.“ Question ” & “ GiftShop ” “Question” and “GiftShop” have move to PCBWay Community page. 3.HDI / FPC become a new star HDI and FPC is becoming more and more popular among PCBWayers. 4.Now I Write Articles in PCBWay We hold the activity of writing articles in PC
