I am using the Aardvark I2C/SPI Host Adapter and Aardvark Software API to interact with an SMBus system. I have looked through the API library to find a way to send a quick command, but all the examples seem to involve data exchange – are quick commands available with the API?
In recent years, healthcare has begun shifting beyond the walls of traditional hospitals, with innovations that bring high-quality care directly into patients' homes. At the heart of this transformation is the Internet of Things (IoT), a network of smart, connected devices that enable seamless communication between patients, caregivers, and healthcare providers. Whether it's wearable monitors, remote diagnostic tools, or cloud-based data platforms, IoT technology has made it possible to deliver hospital-level services in the comfort of a patient’s own home. This shift not only increases convenience and comfort for patients, but also offers promising solutions to systemic healthcare challenges, such as overcrowded hospitals and rising costs. In this blog, we'll explore how IoT is powering the “Hospital at Home” model, the benefits it brings, the challenges it faces, and what the future of connected healthcare might look like.
I am using the Advanced Cable Tester v2 (ACTv2) to run a USB Type-C to USB Type-C cable test and I’m wondering how the cable tester calculates resistance values? It’s helpful to know as we verify our cables’ performance against standards. We’d also like to know which physical factors, like cable length, temperature, or connector wear, could affect the readings?
I started a new project that uses the Aardvark I2C/SPI Host Adapter with the Flash Center Software. I am trying to read an EEPROM device, but in the Transaction log I see that the I2C bus locked. What could cause the bus lock? What do I need to analyze and change?
