My first 20 MHz oscilloscope still works but age shows. Bought this sometimes in 1990′s used, made maybe sometimes early 1980′s. I don’t have original manuals and I have not found much info on this on Internet. My first real oscilloscope: Iwatsu SS-5050. Served well for many years until a digital oscilloscope took it’s place →
Good idea to disconnect your automation devices from network – most of the devices are not secure enough to handle network connection. Here is one big news related to Industrial Controls Systems (ICS) from a big manufacturer: ICS/OTRockwell Automation Urges Customers to Disconnect ICS From Internet Rockwell Automation is concerned about internet-exposed ICS due to →

HTML is not a programming language. As its name indicates (Hypertext Markup Language), it’s a markup language used for creating and structuring content on the web. This funny project wanted to turn HTML to a programming language: HTML, The Programming Language https://html-lang.org/ HTML, the programming language, is a practical, turing-complete[1], stack-based programming language based on →
I just opened the article/blog section on Concergens company web page with my post about information security trends especially related to embedded systems and IoT. More regulation is coming this year and next year. The blog post is available in English and Finnish languages. Information security requirements are increasing https://www.convergens.fi/post/information-security-requirements-are-increasing Tietoturvavaatimukset kasvavat https://www.convergens.fi/fi/post/tietoturvavaatimukset-kasvavat Earlier related →
A massive solar storm rocked the Earth’s atmosphere with charged particles this weekend, triggering spectacular auroras in the night sky across a substantial swath of both North America and Europe. Over the last weekend, one of the strongest geomagnetic storms of the millennium was experienced. ‘Extreme’ solar storm triggers Northern Lights as far south as →

Depends what you want. I’d go with a microcontroller for starts so you can change it programmatically. I’d bet someone has done it with an Arduino or Pi. Here are some links to interesting looking projects. Those circuits operate mostly at safe low voltages and control low power LEDs. The same ideas can be used →
A resistor is a resistor, a coil is a plain ol’ inductance, and a capacitor is a capacitor – or so you thought. Alas, life isn’t quite so trivial… There are non-ideal properties of real components. Capacitors have non-idealities that you should know about when designing electronics circuits. If you are building high frequency circuits →
