PUI Audio AMP2X15 Amplifier Board and Speakers Getting Started with the PUI Audio AMP2X15 Audio Amplifier Board and Speakers

Adding a speaker to an embedded project is not always as simple as connecting it directly to a microcontroller or single-board computer. Most audio sources provide a relatively low-level signal, while a speaker needs more power to produce useful sound output. This is where an audio amplifier becomes important. The PUI Audio AMP2X15 is designed to bridge this gap,…

Smart Wireless Doorbell Using IoT How to Build a Smart Wireless Doorbell System Using IoT

Missing a visitor at the front door usually means missed package deliveries, keeping friends waiting outside, or missing unexpected guests. Standard doorbells only work if we happen to be sitting nearby and the chime is loud enough to hear. If we are stuck in a work meeting, listening to music with headphones, or away from home, it is easy to miss the ring, leaving…

ESP32 GSM Calling Device using GeoLinker GL868 Build an ESP32 GSM Calling Device with Auto Answer Using GeoLinker

In this project, we build a complete ESP32 GSM voice calling device using the GeoLinker GL868 board. The main idea of this project is very simple. When we press a push button connected to the ESP32 board, it will automatically call a fixed phone number. Also, if someone calls the SIM card inside the module, the call will be automatically attended, and we can talk…
