Power Over Ethernet HAT For Raspberry Pi 3B+ And 802.3af PoE Network
Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a technology for wired Ethernet local area networks (LANs) that allows the electrical current necessary for the operation of each device to be carried by the data cables rather than by power cords. Doing so minimizes the number of wires that must be strung to install the network. PoE was [...]
LIN (Local Interconnect Network) Prototyping For Embedded Systems Such As Arduino, Raspberry Pi
LIN (Local Interconnect Network) is a serial network protocol used for communication between components in vehicles. The demand for a second serial network emerged as the technologies and the facilities implemented in modern cars grew, while the CAN Bus was too expensive to implement for every component in the car. European car manufacturers started using [...]
