Sensor Development Kit for IoT , RSL10 sensor

 Postscape estimates that by the end of this year, 2020, approximately 50 billion devices will be connected to the internet. A huge percentage of these devices are short-range wireless systems that use Bluetooth and Wi-Fi to connect to the internet. This is evidence enough that IoT is taking the world by storm. Engineers are constantly trying ways of incorporating IoT into various aspects of our lives from production to agriculture. As such, Development kits for IoT come in handy in the sense they make prototyping faster and easier. Sensor development kit for IoT, therefore, comes in handy when developing IoT systems.




BLE based sensor development KIT for IoT

The RSL10 Sensor Development Kit by ON Semiconductor is one such kind. It offers engineers a comprehensive platform for developing IoT applications that embody cutting-edge smart sensor technology. Most notably it uses Bluetooth Low Energy radio. Using this platform can be used to develop industrial wearables, smart monitoring, and asset monitoring. Using the RSL10 sensor development kit you can also come up with medical, home automation, gaming, smart city, and consumer electronics applications.

RSL10 sensor development kit architecture

This sensor development kit combines highly integrated RSL 10 SIP alongside a variety of low power sensors from Bosch Sensortec. The sensors include environmental, inertial, geomagnetic, and ambient light sensors. As a result, the platform offers 9 degrees-of-freedom detection and environmental monitoring (Volatile Organic Compound, temperature, pressure, ambient light, and relative humidity.) The RSL10 sensor development kit also incorporates pushbuttons, a programmable RGB LED, a microphone, and a 64Kbit of EEPROM.

Types

There two variants of the RSL10 Sensor development kit for IoT;

  • Base version (RSL 10-SENSE-GEVK)
  • Debug version (RSL10- SENSE-DB-GEVK)

The debug version has a populated 10-pin debug header alongside a Segger J-Link LITE Cortes debugger. The debugger connects to this header comes alongside the development kit. The user will require a TC2050 connector on the base variant for debugging.

Features of the RSL10

  • Based on RSL10 SIP
  • Bluetooth 5 certified
  • Certified to international wireless regulations including CE, IC, KC, MIC, and FCC
  • Embodies NOA1305 for ambient light
  • BH160- Integrated low-power smart hub, 3-axis accelerometer, 3-axis gyroscope
  • BHI150 – Integrated low-power, Low-Noise 3-axis digital geomagnetic sensor
  • BME 680- Integrated high-accuracy gas, pressure, humidity, and temperature sensor
  • INMP522- Ultra-low Noise digital Microphone
  • APTF1616 – Programmable RGB LED
  • N24RF64 – 64KB NFC EEPROM
  • 3 push buttons (programmable)
  • RSL10 Sense and control app supported

Little Know more about Brush-less Motors

Image
Brushless motors Brushless differs from conventional dc motors in the sense that it does not have brushes. Commutation is done using electronic drives to feed power to the stator windings. They consist of a rotor which is in the form of a permanent magnet and a stator that is in the form of polyphase armature windings. A  brushless DC motor  can be constructed in two ways; one is by placing the rotor outside the core and the other is by placing the rotor inside the core. How a brushless motor works Brushless motors are driven by electronic drives that  switch  the supply voltage between the stator windings while the rotor turns. There is a transducer that monitors the position of the rotor as it turns and conveys the information to an electronic controller. The controller then decides which stator winding to be energized based on the position of the rotor. Electronic drives are made up of two transistors each phase which is run by a microprocessor. The magnetic field i

LED Modules: Manufacturer,Types and Application

Image
LED Modules Light-emitting diodes (LED) modules are LED self-contained devices that are designed to either function on its own or to plug into a compatible unit. These modules are mostly used in the development of both energy-efficient and portable lighting.  An LED contains several LED bulbs that are connected to a fixture that contains a battery or an alternative power supply which powers all the bulbs contained therein. LED modules can either emit white light or emit different colours based on the material they are made of. They are prominently used for advertising and signages but could as well be used for other purposes due to their versatility. Types of LED modules There are a variety of LED modules available in the market. There no specific parameters that can be used to categorize LED modules . They can be categorized in terms of efficiency, form, CCT, colour among others. Some of the common ones used in signage and advertising include; Side LED modules

Block-chain: A Complete Beginners Guide | Block Chain Technology

Blockchain technology Blockchain technology is barely three decades old, but it has completely changed global money transfer as we know it. It was first conceived in 1991 by a group of researchers who originally intended it to be used to timestamp digital documents to make it impossible to tamper with them. This concept was first put into actual use in 2009 by Satoshi Takamoto to create Bitcoin. Bitcoin has since spurred the adoption of  blockchain technology  for cryptocurrency, medical records, and land records among others.  What is blockchain? A blockchain is a network of computers that share a digital ledger that is duplicated and distributed across all participants in the network (nodes). That is to say that each node on the network has a duplicate copy of the ledger. The digital ledger keeps a chain of transactions since the creation of the network. The chain of transactions keeps growing as new blocks of transactions are approved and then added along. Before a new
