For the ACS37800 breakout, we need chunky terminal blocks for high-current circuits. Since the chip can handle 30 Amps, we’re going with compact barrier blocks so users can safely connect spade/lug terminals without shorts.

We're wrapping up the design for the OPT4048 breakout: mostly putting the finishing touches on the Arduino library (https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_OPT4048). Since the whole point of this sensor is that it gives you CIE X & Y coordinates, we thought it would be cool to plot that onto a CIE diagram (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIE_1931_color_…

We're back to designing more prototypes to get the product pump primed! Having lots of boards to work with means we can reliably get one or two shipping each week.

With sunny days ahead, we're working on more solar projects. One thing that comes up often is we need is a diode to keep the PV panel current only flowing into a charging circuit. Often times folks use a Schottky diode (https://www.digikey.com/short/b5d8495f) for their low forward voltage. But as you get to an Amp or more, you're still looking at a…

For our solar-capable Feathers, we're going to design a FeatherWing helper board to assist with solar connection and monitoring. To do that, we will want to monitor two voltages (the LiPoly battery and the solar panel) and one current (the panel draw). Traditionally, we've liked using the INA219 and friends—let's see if we can find a voltage/curren…

We're back building—testing sensors, finishing the Sparkle Motion Stick, and designing a solar-ready FeatherWing for dual-voltage monitoring. Tune in & explore with us!Kirjoittanut Adafruit Industries
