STMicroelectronics has started a second STM32 entry on GitHub alongside its official STM32 GitHub for the microcontroller family. Called STM32 Hotspot, it “contains non-productised code created by ST’s in-house engineers, originally written for purposes such as exhibition demonstrations and proof-of-concept models. Code examples like these would typically not be shared outside ST,” according to the …

Harvard scientists have managed to create a processing circuit usign ionics rather than electronics. Working with biotech start-up DNA Script, they designed an ionic transistor which consists of an aqueous solution of quinone molecules, interfaced with two concentric ring electrodes with a centre disc electrode (see photo). The ring electrodes electrochemically lower and tune the local …
