We have launched our own YouTube channel and uploaded our first video showing how to use our soldering jig.
We have also uploaded two other videos showing the placement of the components on an ADC Pi and a Servo Pi demo driving 16 RC servos.
We have added product information for legacy and discontinued products into our knowledge base.
We now have a Zero size version of our popular RTC Pi Plus board for the Raspberry Pi Zero.
We are currently working on two new products to allow people to use our Raspberry Pi expansion boards with the Beaglebone Black mini computer, the Arduino Uno/Mega boards, and other Arduino-based boards that use the same pin header layout.
We are pleased to announce that our new support section is now live at AB Electronics UK.
The updated support pages now include a new Knowledge Base system with sections for each of our Raspberry Pi development boards with tutorials for each board and ready-to-run code demos.
New from AB Electronics UK, the ADC Differential Pi is an 8-channel 18-bit analogue to digital converter designed to work with the Raspberry Pi A+, Raspberry Pi B+ and newer models.
Bad Dog Designs in the UK have made a 1930’s style solar power monitoring system using a Raspberry Pi which displays the solar power generated on large Nixie tubes and old analogue panel meters which are driven using servos using one of our Servo Pi development boards.
Today we received a question from a customer asking how fast the ADC Pi could sample all its 8 input channels and log to a file.
We’re delighted to share an innovative contribution from one of our community members, Warren. He’s successfully created a project using a Raspberry Pi 2 paired with our Serial Pi RS232 adapter to operate an EPSON Thermal Printer, all controlled via PHP.
In August 2014 the Raspberry Pi foundation announced a new revision of the Raspberry Pi model B called a Raspberry Pi B+ which was a redesign of the old board with a new 40-pin GPIO connector, two extra USB ports and other changes on the board to improve the power consumption and changes to the memory card.
After seeing the initial images and information on Sunday 14th July and the official release yesterday announcing the new Raspberry Pi Model B+ boards, we ordered the new boards from RS Components and they arrived today.
We have made a video demo showing our Servo Pi board driving 16 RC servos with various drive modes and sequences.
