What is ncurses?
ncurses (New curses) is a free library providing an API for the development of user interfaces with drop-down menus, using the characters and colors of a semi-graphical mode. Not only is this type of user interface designed independently of the terminal, but it speeds up screen refresh, thereby reducing the latency typically experienced by remote shell users (Read Text User Interface, TUI). We … [Read more...]
What is JTAG in Electronics?
Electronic circuits and devices are getting smaller and exponentially more complex. When they were large, they can be tested them with test probes on the bottom of the board. There were issues with such method but still it was a way. Today, components are mounted on both sides of a circuit board, hence no place of attachment are left for the test equipment. Joint Test Action Group (JTAG) is a … [Read more...]
What is In-System Programming (ISP)
The In-System programming (ISP), also known as In-circuit serial programming (ICSP), enables the programming of a logical circuit directly in the deployment system. A simple serial connection, e.g. JTAG or SPI, is usually used for this purpose. The advantage of in-system programming is that otherwise the block to be programmed would have to be removed from the target system or a further … [Read more...]

What is a Battery Charge Controller
A charge controller or charging circuit has the task of technically implementing the charging method for charging batteries. The different types of accumulators also require different charging methods. In current concepts, this is achieved by power electronics, while older charge controllers in motor vehicles with DC alternators also work electromechanically. They had switching coils, similar to … [Read more...]
