Comment on Flipper Zero gets a Raspberry Pi RP2040-powered video game module


FLIPPER ZERO GETS A RASPBERRY PI RP2040-POWERED VIDEO GAME MODULE



Flipper Zero hardware & wireless hacking tool can now be used as a proper game
console thanks to a Raspberry Pi RP2040-powered video game module that mirrors
the display of the device on a larger monitor or TV via DVI/HDMI video output,
and also adds a 6-axis motion tracking sensor. The Flipper Zero has been in the
news in recent days, notably with Canada’s government banning the device due to
car theft (although it only seems feasible on older cars), and today the company
has announced the launch of a video game module developed in collaboration with
Raspberry Pi Ltd. Video game module specifications: MCU – Raspberry Pi RP2040
dual-core Arm Cortex-M0+ microcontroller clocked up to 133 MHz with 264 kB SRAM

Comment on SMLIGHT launches Zigbee Ethernet/WiFi coordinators and USB adapters
based on TI CC2652P7 or CC2674P10 wireless chips


SMLIGHT LAUNCHES ZIGBEE ETHERNET/WIFI COORDINATORS AND USB ADAPTERS BASED ON TI
CC2652P7 OR CC2674P10 WIRELESS CHIPS



SMLIGHT has recently released Zigbee Ethernet/WiFi/USB coordinators and USB
dongles based on either Texas Instruments CC2652P7 or CC2674P10 wireless
microcontrollers that update on the company’s SLZB-06 Zigbee 3.0 to PoE
Ethernet, USB, and WiFi adapter and Silicon Labs EFR32MG21-based SLZB-07 Zigbee
3.0 USB adapter. That’s a total of four new devices with the SLZB-06p7 and
SLZB-07p7 based on CC2652P7 and designed to work with vendor-agnostic software
such as Zigbee2MQTT and Home Assistant ZHA, and the similar SLZB-06p10 and
SLZB-06p10 based on the CC2674P10 whose Zigbee firmware is still under
development according to SMLIGHT. SLZB-06p7/SLZB-06p10 Zigbee to

Posted on February 13, 2024 by Tomisin Olujinmi - 2 Comments on NRFICE is a
Bluetooth FPGA board in the Arduino UNO form factor (Crowdfunding)


NRFICE IS A BLUETOOTH FPGA BOARD IN THE ARDUINO UNO FORM FACTOR (CROWDFUNDING)



The NRFICE FPGA is a Bluetooth FPGA board designed for edge computing and IoT
applications. It is built upon a combination of the dual-core nRF5340 Bluetooth
SoC and the Lattice ICE40UP5K FPGA. The ICE40 UltraPlus is a low-power,
high-performance FPGA for edge computing and artificial intelligence projects
and the nRF5340 is a Bluetooth 5.3 SoC that supports Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE),
Bluetooth Mesh, Thread, NFC, and Zigbee. Through the Nordic nRF5340, NRFICE can
load a project directly into the iCE40 FPGA, bypassing the usual extensive
toolchain setup. This enables a new class of FPGA development, where bitstreams
can be hosted in the cloud, selected by a user on their phone, and loaded
wirelessly to the board. It features a built-in J-Link OB for easy debugging and
programming without the need for emulator dongles and is similar to the
previously covered Segger emPower evaluation board in this regard. This board
supports […]

Comments on Testing AMD Ryzen 9 7940HS’ AI Engine in Windows 11


TESTING AMD RYZEN 9 7940HS’ AI ENGINE IN WINDOWS 11



Some of the newer AMD Ryzen processors come with an AI Engine (also called NPU
or IPU) that works in Windows 11 including the Ryzen 9 7940HS, Ryzen 7 7840HS,
Ryzen 5 7640HS, Ryzen 7 7840U, and Ryzen 5 7640U. I’ve just completed the review
of the GEEKOM A7 mini PC powered by an AMD Ryzen 9 7940HS CPU with Windows 11 –
but need to wait before publishing it – so I decided to try the AI engine on the
Ryzen 9 7940HS processor. The AI Engine relies on AMD XDNA architecture, and AMD
provides instructions to get started with examples, demos, and developer
resources. So I decided to try some examples, but for some reasons I’ll explain
below, I eventually had to settle for some demos. Ryzen AI software installation
(for the demos) The examples hosted on GitHub require us to install dependencies
for the Ryzen AI software […]
