When it comes to short-range IoT technologies, besides Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, there is actually another well-known player—ZigBee. ZigBee has been one of the important wireless communication protocols in recent years, widely used in the IoT field, especially in smart home applications. Today, let’s take a detailed look at it! 1. Origin and History 1Why Was … Read more
In practical control projects centered around PLCs, most cases rely on the cooperation of touch screens or upper-level computers. This is because we use PLCs for control, primarily dealing with some analog quantities, which are the values we need to monitor, such as pressure, temperature, and flow on the equipment. These detected values are then … Read more

1. Introduction As shown in the figure below, this four-channel HDMI video switch controller has been used during the video recording process in my laboratory. It can be controlled via the front panel buttons or by sending commands over the network. To facilitate remote control on the experimental platform, I plan to use this wireless … Read more
1 Introduction to SPI SPI, short for Serial Peripheral Interface, is a synchronous serial communication protocol. It was first defined by Motorola for its MC68HCXX series processors. The SPI interface is primarily used in EEPROM, FLASH, real-time clocks, ADCs, as well as between digital signal processors and digital signal decoders. SPI is a high-speed, full-duplex, … Read more
Some things can only be done alone. Some doors can only be passed alone. Some roads can only be walked alone. 1. Overview SPI: Serial Peripheral Interface. It is a synchronous serial bus interface specification developed by Motorola in the mid-1980s (with clock signal, controlled by clock polarity and clock phase for sampling, that is, … Read more
Recently, I needed to write a protocol, so I reviewed SPI again. (I have kept this draft for too long, if I don’t publish it now, I will forget it) First, I analyzed the characteristics of the SPI protocol, using the ADS1118 device as a carrier for analysis. Later, I used a logic analyzer to … Read more
