Running 260K Tiny-LLM on ESP32 We are all facing a huge transition in tech due to AI. In projects, we can run AI models on PCs, SBCs or even Cloud servers. In this tutorial, we are trying to see if we can run an AI model on a microcontroller board like the ESP32. To test this out, we are going to deploy and benchmark the 260K-parameter Tiny-LLM by Andrej Karpathy using his open-source llama2.c… |

How to Identify ESP32 Flash & PSRAM Size ESP32 development boards have been around for years, and we all have been doing a lot of projects with them. They come in various models, with different peripherals, and they perform different levels of tasks. If we are to check into a simple example, we have the normal ESP32 WROOM development boards as well as the same ESP32 with a camera sensor mounted onboard, the… |

ESP32-S3 Runs a 28.9-Million-Parameter LLM, Borrowing a Memory Trick From Google's Gemma Developer slvDev has published an open-source project that runs a 28.9-million-parameter language model directly on an ESP32-S3, a microcontroller that costs roughly $8. The model runs entirely on the chip itself, with no data sent to a server, generating text at roughly 9 tokens per second and outputting it to a small connected display. The achievement stands out because of how little working… |

Revolutionizing Memory Technology: Sanjeev Aggarwal, CEO of Everspin Technologies Shares Insights on MRAM's Role in the Modern Era Everspin Technologies has a rich history that dates back to 1996 when it was part of Motorola’s Magnetoresistive Random Access Memory (MRAM) group. Selected by DARPA for its mission-critical technology initiative, Everspin's roots were firmly grounded in the defense sector. Following Motorola's spin-off of its semiconductor business in 2004, Everspin continued its… |

Is Flash Memory just a derivative of EEPROM? How to choose the right one for your applications? Memory is an irreplaceable part of any device. Today, memories can be largely classified into many different categories, but are mainly narrowed down to two of their types i.e. Volatile and Non-volatile, which are then classified into further more types. Let’s start from the beginning, from the time, methods for memory erasability… |

LittleFS with ESP8266 to Read, Write and Delete Data on Flash Memory of NodeMCU If one is familiar with using firebase to fetch and update data to real-time databases, then it’s known that it’s an annoying problem that the data will be destroyed when the NodeMCU resets. So, here, let’s learn how to overcome the problem with the help of LittleFS. This problem persists in Arduino as well, but to solve this in Arduino, we use EEPROM. It is a non-… |
