This is a great teardown video – one of my favorites yet from electronupdate – complete with die shots of several of the ICs and components used in this Zigbee-enabled light bulb:
Tear down of a Cree Connected bulb. This Zigbee compliant bulb has lots of interesting silicon. Video looks at overall construction and then de-caps the ICs on the remote controller PCB.
Keep up with electronupdate’s updates on blogspot.
Make a robot friend with Adafruit’s CRICKIT – A Creative Robotics & Interactive Construction Kit. It’s an add-on to our popular Circuit Playground Express, FEATHER and other platforms to make and program robots with CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. Start controlling motors, servos, solenoids. You also get signal pins, capacitive touch sensors, a NeoPixel driver and amplified speaker output. It complements & extends your boards so you can still use all the goodies on the microcontroller, now you have a robotics playground as well.
