The RTL-SDR devices (V3 and V4) have gained popularity among radio amateurs because of their very low cost and rich features. A basic system may consist of a USB based RTL-SDR device (dongle) with a suitable antenna, a Raspberry Pi 5 computer, a USB based external audio inputoutput adapter, and software installed on the Raspberry Pi 5 computer. With such a modest setup, it is possible to receive signals from around 24 MHz to over 1.7 GHz. This book is aimed at amateur radio enthusiasts and electronic engineering students, as well as at anyone interested in learning to use the Raspberry Pi 5 to build electronic projects. The book is suitable for both beginners through experienced readers. Some knowledge of the Python programming language is required to understand and eventually modify the projects given in the book. A block diagram, a circuit diagram, and a complete Python program listing is given for each project, alongside a comprehensive description. The following popular RTL-SDR programs are discussed in detail, aided by step-by-step installation guides for practical use on a Raspberry Pi 5: > SimpleFM > GQRX > SDR++ > CubicSDR > RTL-SDR Server > Dump1090 > FLDIGI > Quick > RTL_433 > aldo > xcwcp > GPredict > TWCLOCK > CQRLOG > klog > Morse2Ascii > PyQSO > Welle.io > Ham Clock > CHIRP > xastir > qsstv > flrig > XyGrib > FreeDV > Qtel (EchoLink) > XDX (DX-Cluster) > WSJT-X The application of the Python programming language on the latest Raspberry Pi 5 platform precludes the use of the programs in the book from working on older versions of Raspberry Pi computers.

Comprehensive resource on power management ICs affording new levels of functionality and applications with cost reduction in various fields. Design of Power Management Integrated Circuits is a comprehensive reference for power management IC design, covering the circuit design of main power management circuits like linear and switched-mode voltage regulators, along with sub-circuits such as power switches, gate drivers and their supply, level shifters, the error amplifier, current sensing, and control loop design. Circuits for protection and diagnostics, as well as aspects of the physical design like lateral and vertical power delivery, pin-out, floor planning, grounding/supply guidelines, and packaging, are also addressed. A full chapter is dedicated to the design of integrated passives. The text illustrates the application of power management integrated circuits (PMIC) to growth areas like computing, the Internet of Things, mobility, and renewable energy. Includes numerous real-world examples, case studies, and exercises illustrating key design concepts and techniques. Power management integrated circuits (PMICs) are essential in today's electronic devices. They manage power delivery and consumption, provide efficient power supplies, and drive power switches that control actuators and motors. PMICs can be integrated into complex integrated circuits (ICs) or implemented as dedicated ICs. In this book, the term PMIC will refer to any type of power integrated circuit. The importance of PMICs has grown significantly in recent years, driving innovation and progress in various industries, from consumer electronics to automotive and industrial applications. With the progress of Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence (AI), intelligent power management is critical to supplying complex processors and sensors.

This book provides readers with state-of-the-art knowledge of established and emerging semiconducting materials, their processing, and the fabrication of chips and microprocessors. Applications of semiconductors in electronic devices, chips, and microprocessors are covered in detail, along with the fundamentals of semiconductors and their processing. This book provides the basics and workings of many semiconducting devices and their role in modern electronics. This book also explores emerging semiconductors and their importance in future devices. The future and challenges of many emerging semiconductors are also explored. Microprocessors have emerged as the unsung champions of modern technology in the 21st century, silently but profoundly influencing nearly every aspect of our existence. These minuscule electronic processors, often referred to as central processing units (CPUs), are at the core of a staggering variety of devices, including smartphones, laptops, industrial apparatus, and space-based equipment. Their function and significance in the modern world are nothing short of revolutionary. A microprocessor is, at its core, a semiconductor device that conducts the fundamental computations and data processing duties that power modern technology. It executes a series of instructions, processes data, and manages the different operations necessary for a device to perform its intended function.

The “Basic Course on Arduino” is the gateway to the discovery of the new paradigm due to Industry 4.0. This Course fits perfectly in that new area of teaching that lately, especially internationally, is spreading and in Italy we are just at the beginning. More and more resources are being invested in this, which has now even become a course of study that starts in elementary school until it takes students all the way to graduation. This new area, which encompasses multiple disciplines, is called STEM. Arduino is a kind of small PC, it has a processor (a microcontroller to be exact), memory (like the RAM and Hard Disk of a PC), a motherboard, and connectors for signal inputs and outputs that go to external peripherals which can be sensors, actuator modules such as electric motors, etc. There are different types of boards, depending on certain features, for example, there are boards that already have WiFi module built in, those that have GPS, etc.. among the most popular is the Arduino UNO R.3, a basic development board that can be integrated with any type of module. Because the Arduino project is open source, many other manufacturers have made their own UNO R.3 board. Some manufacturers, seeing the potential of this board, have also developed it further by adding features and making it even easier to use. So many projects can be made with this Maker Development Board, the only limit is our imagination. Using the supplied USB cable, it is possible to connect the Development Board to the USB port of the PC from which the board itself draws the power necessary for its operation and interfaces with the PC to be programmed.

In this book, we explain the subject of digital signal processing with MATLAB examples. Digital signal processing has a wide field of study in electronic engineering. MATLAB program is a computer software that offers a wide range of working opportunities in engineering sciences. While preparing this book, we wanted it to be of maximum benefit, not only just providing MATLAB applications on digital signal processing, but also as a good MATLAB tutorial. That's why we prepared the starting chapters of the book as MATLAB tutorial. The MATLAB examples cover the subjects: sampling, spectral domain analysis of samples signals, downsampling, upsampling, interpolation, disctete Fourier transform, analog and digital filter design. In the book, basic MATLAB commands are explained in detail in the first four chapters. These chapters were prepared considering the readers who do not know the MATLAB programming language, want to remember it, or want to reinforce what they know. In the fifth chapter, the basic signals frequently used in the literature are explained in continuous and discrete time form. In the Chapter-6, sampling of continuous time signals is explained. We also covered spectral overlapping, i.e., aliasing problem.

Communication and network hardware like routers, switches, and base stations are based on them too. In the consumer market, typical products with embedded systems include smart washing machines, intelligent heating systems, and gaming consoles. Even the plastic cards we use for banking and building access control can be considered a type of embedded system. As an engineer, you know that countless devices—from industrial components to smart household appliances—rely on embedded computer systems. But how do you balance the need for robust security with performance and innovative product design? Engineering Secure Devices will guide you through crafting secure devices—from protecting crucial assets to the nature of attackers and the risks they pose. You’ll explore the technical intricacies and pros and cons of symmetric and asymmetric cryptography and learn how to use and analyze random number generators and cryptographic algorithms. You’ll learn how to ensure confidential data storage and secure memory, and devise secure device identity solutions and communication protocols to reinforce system architecture against potential threats.
