Qualcomm’s recent acquisition of Arduino marks a turning point in the maker and embedded space. As announced on October 7, 2025, Qualcomm will acquire Arduino while preserving its brand, tools, and commitment to open-source development. In parallel with the acquisition news, Arduino and Qualcomm jointly unveiled the Arduino UNO Q, a hybrid single-board system combining Linux-capable compute…
Qualcomm has announced an acquisition agreement with Arduino to equip developers with edge capabilities, pending regulatory approval. This is not an isolated move, given the company’s acquisition of Foundries.io and Edge Impulse. It’s a consolidation of multiple developer platforms under a single ecosystem that combines AI model development, OS infrastructure, and now the hardware base.

Acquiring custom chips usually means dealing with complex negotiations and a large minimum order requirement. wafer.space is a pooled fabrication solution to that. You submit your design through an automated system and, in return, get 1000 identical bare dies or chip-on-board (COB) assemblies (each bonded to a small PCB). The area to design your chip is standard, a slot measuring 3.88 mm × 5.…
Infineon and ROHM have signed an MoU(Memorandum of Understanding) that lets them act as second sources for each other's customers using certain SiC products with applications including electric vehicle on-board chargers, solar photovoltaic systems, energy storage, and AI data centres. This will make both the design and procurement process easier for the customer. The standardisation of…
As official media partners of electronica India and productronica India 2025, we bring to you highlights from its inauguration ceremony. The event was held in an open space facing Hall C, hosted by Priya Shubankar. The host was assisted by a humanoid, VOLT-E, who welcomed guests and waved back when members from the audience waved at it. The bot was able to respond to…

A young semiconductor start-up called IndieSemiC made headlines at Semicon India 2025, Delhi, by launching India’s first IoT Evolution Board with Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw. The product comes from a partnership between the startup and C-DAC (Centre for Development of Advanced Computing). It uses a homegrown VEGA processor and supports Bluetooth and LoRa.
The board has a wide range…
Educational robotics company Hiwonder has released miniHexa, an AI hexapod robot based on an ESP32 with Arduino programming support. Its physical prowess comes from its 18 individual servo motors that enable realistic hexapod locomotion and complex maneuvers. It can strafe in any direction without needing to turn around through the use of inverse kinematics algorithms. The bot can be…
DigiKey has announced its Back to School Giveaway, and it’s open for submissions from August 26th to October 24th, 2025. The winners' announcement is expected around the 15th of November. This is a giveaway that happens every year, and the company sees this as a way to help students bring their creative engineering ideas to life.
The entry eligibility is for you to be a student with a…
Traditional analog power supplies struggle to keep up with today’s performance and control accuracy requirements, which have gotten way stricter. Even though digital power supplies work better, they’re just too expensive and use too much power for smaller industrial applications. This makes their use limited. To counter this, ROHM has just announced a new reference design for power supply…
Mouser Electronics, Inc.’s most recent Mouser Talks Tech video episode features an interview with Dean Kamen, the founder of FIRST®. The interview was recorded in Houston during the 2025 FIRST Championship, where Mouser served as the registration sponsor. The interview centers on how much of an influence FIRST has had on students and the support it has offered towards growth in science,…
Vishay Intertechnology has introduced the TSM41 series of industrial-grade, multi-turn surface-mount cermet trimmers. They are designed to fit constrained applications and work in harsh environments, with a 4 mm by 4 mm size, -55 °C to +140 °C range, and IP67 sealing. They occupy less space on a circuit board compared to older versions, as the case is 42% smaller.
The range of…
