In this post, we’ll be taking a closer look at the ESP32-S2 hardware, and more specifically, the ESP32-S2 Mini pinout. The ESP32-S2 is based on the Xtensa® single-core 32-bit LX7 microprocessor, up to 240 MHz. The ESP32-S2 pinout consists of 43 × programmable GPIO’s pins, 2 × 12-bit SAR ADCs, up to 20 channels. The […]
PIP is among the most popular package managers for Python. This article will discuss how to Install PIP on macOS systems. Third-party libraries and packages are the main assets of the Python programming language. The standard python itself does not have many libraries and packages for the developers. As such, third-party libraries and packages give

A thermocouple is a device for measuring temperature. It comprises two dissimilar metallic wires joined together to form a junction. When the junction is heated or cooled, a small voltage is generated in the electrical circuit of the thermocouple which can be measured, and this corresponds to temperature. Basics of Thermocouples A thermocouple consists of
A PID controller or controller is a very advanced electronic thermostat that ensures that the temperature, for example of an oven or proofing cabinet, reaches and retains the set temperature very accurately (and as quickly as possible). PID controller PID stands for Proportionally Integrating and Differentiating. A PID controller is a very advanced thermostat (temperature controller). A
Thread is a new, energy-efficient networking technology found on the HomePod mini and Apple TV 4K (2021). Products from Nanoleaf, Eve and other manufacturers have also increasingly been made suitable for thread. What is it, and what can you do with it? You can read that here. What is Thread? Thread is an IP-based network
