A Combat Guide against E-waste and Throwawayism
This book is for anyone who enjoys tinkering with analog and digital hardware electronics. Regardless of the sophistication of your workspace, only basic tools are required to achieve truly satisfying results. It is intended as a reference guide among other hardware repair publications you may have in your library. However, the book goes a step further than most other repair guides in addressing issues in the modern era of discarded electronics called e-waste.
E-waste should be put to good use. Producing anything new requires not just precious resources and labor, but also energy to make and deliver it to global retail shelves. Your talents and love of electronics can be put to good use by rescuing and resurrecting at least selected units from this endless stream of e-waste. Examples include either restoring through repair, or salvaging reusable electronic and mechanical components for your next project.
Smart tips are provided throughout the book, and much information is tabulated for easy reference. The book expands age-old repair and hacking techniques applied for repair on the workbench into clever methods and applications to achieve effective results with discarded or “non-servicable” electronic consumer products. The final chapter provides real-life examples using all of the previously discussed content in a summarized form for each example repair type.

Cool Projects for Test, Measurement, and Control
The Raspberry Pi has dominated the maker scene for many years. Freely accessible I/O pins have made it one of the most popular processor boards of all time. However, the classic Raspberry Pi has no analog inputs. Direct measurement of analog values is therefore not possible. Consequently, photodiodes, NTCs, Hall sensors, etc. cannot be read directly. In addition, the pins are connected directly to the exposed contacts, i.e. without a driver or protection circuit. This can quickly destroy the central controller and thus the entire Raspberry Pi.
These problems can be elegantly solved with the Pico. As a front-end, it can easily handle a wide range of measurement tasks. In addition, the Pico is much cheaper than a classic Raspberry Pi 4 or 5. If a faulty circuit leads to the destruction of the Pico, this is relatively easy to handle. This makes the combination of a classic Raspberry Pi 4 or 5 and the Pico an ideal pair.
The book introduces the broad and highly topical field of modern controller technology using the combined force of a Raspberry Pi 4 or 5 and a Raspberry Pi Pico. In addition to a detailed introduction to the operation and functionality of the controller boards themselves, the book also focuses on data acquisition and processing with digital processors. Especially the combination of both systems offers a wide range of interesting possibilities.
Some practical projects from the contents:
USB between Raspberry Pi 4 or 5 and Pico
I²C Communication and Pico as an I²C device
Voltmeter and Computer Thermometer
Pico W as a Web Server and WLAN Scanner
Frequency Meters and Generators
OLED Displays on Raspberry Pi 4 or 5 and Pico

Le monde de l'électronique est à la fois vaste et… tout petit ! Voici un livre qui confirme ces deux constatations contradictoires. En effet, en électronique, tout touche à tout, d'une manière ou d'une autre. Le plus petit détail peut avoir les plus grandes conséquences, et pas toujours celles que l'on attendrait.
L'objectif de l'auteur de cette série d'articles autonomes intitulée hors-circuits, réunis ici en un livre, n'est pas de vous tenir par la main. Robert Lacoste, électronicien professionnel de haut-niveau, vous donne des pistes pour comprendre ce qui paraît mystérieux. Il vous guide juste assez pour vous permettre ensuite de progresser tout seul. Avec lui, non seulement vous repousserez vos propres limites, mais saurez aussi détecter celles du matériel et du logiciel que vous utilisez. En vous invitant à repasser par les notions de physique de base, il vous permettra de séparer les véritables progrès techniques des laïus commerciaux.
Les bases, ça peut mener loin
D'où vient la sensibilité d'un récepteur d'ondes radio ? Pourquoi le téléchargement d'une vidéo sur votre portable est-il beaucoup plus lent à la campagne qu'en centre-ville ? Si pour vous la réponse technique à des questions comme celles-ci (et bien d'autres que vous n'osez peut-être même pas vous poser) n'est pas évidente, ce livre vous aidera à y voir plus clair. Oui, on peut être à l'aise avec les microcontrôleurs, mais dérouté par le comportement d'un simple transistor. Vous sentez-vous concerné par de telles interrogations ? Ce livre est donc pour vous.
Sans aucune formule mathématique qui ne soit pas à la portée d'un lycéen, il balaye tout le champ de l'électronique, depuis l'analogique jusqu'au traitement numérique du signal en passant par le domaine si redouté des hautes-fréquences. La théorie ne s'y éloigne jamais beaucoup de la loi d'Ohm ! Avec des mots simples, l'auteur explique comment ça marche, pourquoi parfois ça ne marche pas comme on veut, et comment mieux utiliser différentes techniques dans vos propres projets pour que ça marche.

Next, readers discover how to control a smart home Raspberry Pi display from an Alexa skill using Simple Queue Service (SQS) messaging to switch the display on and off or change the color.
A node-RED design is discussed from the basic user interface right up to configuring MQTT nodes. MQTT messages sent from a user are displayed on a Raspberry Pi.
A chapter discusses sending a proactive notification such as a weather alert from a Raspberry Pi to an Alexa device. The book concludes by explaining how to create Raspberry Pi as a stand-alone Alexa device.
Avec une simple carte Pro Mini et quelques autres composants, des projets qui étaient impensables il y a 20 ou 30 ans (ou qui auraient coûté une petite fortune) sont réalisés facilement et à un prix abordable dans ce livre. Des simples effets LED à une station complète de chargement et de test de batteries qui mettra une batterie rechargeable à l'épreuve, il y en a pour tous les goûts.
Tous les projets sont basés sur le microcontrôleur ATmega328, qui offre des possibilités infinies de mesure, de commutation et de contrôle grâce à ses 20 portes d'entrée et de sortie. Par exemple, avec un affichage à 7 segments et quelques résistances, vous pouvez construire un voltmètre ou un thermomètre à base de NTC. La plateforme Arduino offre l'environnement de développement idéal pour programmer cette gamme de cartes.
Outre ces projets très pratiques, le livre fournit également les connaissances nécessaires pour vous permettre de créer des projets à partir de vos propres idées. Comment mesurer, et quoi ? Quel transistor convient pour commuter une certaine charge ? Quand est-il préférable d'utiliser un circuit intégré ? Comment commuter la tension du secteur ? Même les projets fonctionnant sur batterie basés sur le LilyPad sont abordés en détail, ainsi que de nombreux moteurs différents, du simple moteur à courant continu au moteur pas à pas.
Les capteurs sont un autre sujet passionnant. Par exemple, un simple récepteur infrarouge qui peut donner aux télécommandes désuètes une nouvelle vie en contrôlant votre maison, et un minuscule composant qui peut mesurer la différence de pression de l'air entre le sol et la hauteur de la table !
For Raspberry Pi, ESP32 and nRF52 with Python, Arduino and Zephyr
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) radio chips are ubiquitous from Raspberry Pi to light bulbs. BLE is an elaborate technology with a comprehensive specification, but the basics are quite accessible.
A progressive and systematic approach will lead you far in mastering this wireless communication technique, which is essential for working in low power scenarios.
In this book, you’ll learn how to:
Discover BLE devices in the neighborhood by listening to their advertisements.
Create your own BLE devices advertising data.
Connect to BLE devices such as heart rate monitors and proximity reporters.
Create secure connections to BLE devices with encryption and authentication.
Understand BLE service and profile specifications and implement them.
Reverse engineer a BLE device with a proprietary implementation and control it with your own software.
Make your BLE devices use as little power as possible.
This book shows you the ropes of BLE programming with Python and the Bleak library on a Raspberry Pi or PC, with C++ and NimBLE-Arduino on Espressif’s ESP32 development boards, and with C on one of the development boards supported by the Zephyr real-time operating system, such as Nordic Semiconductor's nRF52 boards.
Starting with a very little amount of theory, you’ll develop code right from the beginning. After you’ve completed this book, you’ll know enough to create your own BLE applications.
