GPS6MV2 problems
I am trying to get some input from my gps and I have a problem. It is that I don't get any input from the gps. I am a noob. Here is my code: ```#include <SoftwareSerial.h>
int RXPin = 3;
int TXPin = 2;

Trying to add cellular to ESP32C3 (Seeed Studio) with BK-SIM7080G
Hi, I’m trying to add cellular to my project but I am not sure if I am powering the BK board correctly. I need small smd components because space is very tight. I also don’t know what ESR/ESD to choose. Is this diagram correct or are there improvements that should be made? The battery is also connected to something else, which will be our main method to monitor battery life. Thanks.

ATS2855
Hey
Does anyone know anything about the ATS2855?
I got a chinese gaming controller and need to dump the firmware from the chip
(the controller has 4 buttons on the back, 2 back buttons and 2 to programm them with other controller buttons. and i wanna try to make them work as normal buttons instead, via firmware if possible)
All i can find online is: ...
Can't show anything on a WS2812B 8x8 matrix (arduino nano)
Hi, so... I recieved 4 RGB WS2812B 8x8 matrix purchased off of aliexpress over here, and since then I've never been able to show anything with them. On the picture I have the purple wire (DIN) connected to the D12 pin on my arduino nano, and the two other +5V and GND pins are connected to the 5V and GND pins on the arduino. I've tried everything in the FastLED library, lots of pins (4, 5, 6, 12, 11, 10, 9, all digital), every WS2812Controller type when declaring
FastLED.addLeds<TYPE, DATA_PIN, RGB>(leds, NUM_LEDS);, and a bunch of FastLED examples. I also tried the NeoPixel libraries, but with no result. Nothing works.
All I have is the following information:
- When declaring only 1 led (instead of the 64) nothing happens. Every led is off.
- When declaring 64 leds (or more) the first blue led seems to blink with very low intensity an very very shortly (the LOW time seems to be much longer than the HIGH time)....
Will the hc-sr04 be able to give inputs and outputs if i connect the wires in this way?
Sorry, I'm terribly new to this stuff and our teacher told us to create a product. No tutorial given. He just told us to do it on our own.
NFC/RFID reader with two transponders
I misplaced the data sheet for the module in the picture. I am finding out that I really needed that to understand what I have. Can anyone point me to where I need to look to find the information I need to understand what I have.
Old Drone Camera Hacking
I found this camera module that used to be part of a cheap drone I bought close to 7 years ago. upon further looking, I noticed 4 empty pads and assumed they were debug pins, since it says "UART" somewhere on the middle of the module. I identified the power pins and soldered a USB cable to it. after plugging it to my computer, the module powered up but wouldn't appear on
lsusb nor a serial terminal like coolterm.
after a little bit of digging on the internet, I found a post mentioning a similar module to mine, but theirs appears to not have those 4 pins on the side. https://electronics.stackexchange.com/questions/490422/controlling-3-pin-pinhole-camera-from-drone-using-arduino
one thing I could confirm was taking pictures and videos when hooking the yellow wire to power. ...

Motor & diode.
Okay, with this I'm struggling yo understand the current flow of this Back-Emf and this diode.
As far as I get it;
When the motor is off, (obviously there's back emf i know that) basically it says it let's current flow from the motors negative to the positive. How im not sure. Because ro me hsi diode seems the wrong wsy around for that....
