On page 4, there is an "IDE Power" connector. It looks a lot like a 4 pin CPU fan connector, but it (obviously) provides different voltages that are appropriate for 3.5" IDE drives (5V, 12V) and the ...

I2C is a wonderful interface. With four wires and only two GPIOs, you can connect a whole lot of sensors and devices – in parallel, at that! You will see I2C used basically everywhere, in every phone, ...

Parallel ATA (IDE) uses 40 pins, not 26. 26 was for floppies. But it's a standard 40-pin "header" connector. Sometimes called "IDC". CF cards have the PATA interface on a 50-pin connector. I don't ...

A few days ago we reported on a new product for owners of the Raspberry Pi Zero, a set of solderless header pins that had a novel installation method involving a hammer. We were skeptical that they ...

We all like to standardise. But there doesn’t appear to be any pin number system defined for one of the most popular wire-to-board connector sets. Marking the PCB pin header isn’t so important, as the ...

The processor features two ARM Cortex-A76 CPU cores with support for frequencies up to 2 GHz, six Cortex-A55 cores that run at up to 1.8 GHz, and a single 200 MHz XuanTie E902 RISC-V co-processor for ...
