El despliegue de 5G en ESP continúa su evolución lineal. Cerramos 0125 con aprox 10k N28 sites (o bandas) para cada uno de los operadores líderes (MasOrange y Telefónica) y con algo más de 6k en N78 por parte de Telefónica. Pero tenemos un juego de datos nuevos que procede de la CNMC y además de datos sobre estaciones base hay información sobre tráfico y conexiones. Los números de estaciones entre las dos fuentes no coinciden, como cabría esperar, pero cuenta una historia muy similar. Dos líderes muy destacados casi empatados. Al menos en la banda de 700MHz . La foto del tráfico es mucho más sutil y nos cuenta historias mucho más complejas. Pero sobre todo nos hace plantearnos cuál es el impacto del despliegue de la banda N78 en los patrones de uso de los clientes, y de estos en parámetros del mercado como la captación (y la portabilidad). Y aventuramos una respuesta. Cuál es la vuestra?

¿Cuál es la posición que ocupa ESP en el mundo en cuanto al despliegue de #5g? ¿Y dentro de #eu? ¿Y cuál es la posición que ocupa la propia #eu dentro del desarrollo mundial? Recientemente Opensignal ha publicado su ranking global correspondiente a junio del 2023 y las noticias son templadas: ESP ocupa una posición intermedia, tanto en el mundo como en #eu. El liderazgo corresponde claramente a asía con #korea como líder destacada y una formidable potencia creciente: La India. El posicionamiento de ESP encaja con los datos y las estrategias de despliegue, que apuestan por 700MHz con una capa superpuesta de 3,5GHz que está todavía en construcción. Y, de nuevo, recordamos las diferentes estrategias que los operadores parecen estar siguiendo con respecto al despliegue de las bandas. Si #españa y la #eu quieren ocupar una posición de liderazgo deben potenciar al máximo los despliegues en bandas altas y no de manera exclusiva los de 700. No hacerlo así podría generar una nueva brecha digital y conduciría a permanecer rezagados en el despliegue de #5g
This week's EYE ON NPI comes to us from the brilliant wireless engineers at Nordic Semiconductor - it's the Nordic nRF9160 System-in-Package with Integrated Cellular and GNSS (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/n/nordic-semi/nrf9160-sip). You know them for their popular nRF52 series of microcontrollers that have integrated Bluetooth LE - they're the market leaders for BLE development and support, with excellent software and low-power capabilities. A few years ago they decided to start branching out from their hit products and into more wireless IoT transports, like cellular and, more recently, WiFi (which perhaps we'll cover in a future EYE ON NPI!). The nRF91 series (https://www.nordicsemi.com/Products/nRF9160) is the Nordic Semi flagship cellular line, but it's different than most cell modules we've used. Normally you get a modules say from Quectel, and interface to it via USB or UART - sending AT commands (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hayes_command_set) and parsing the responses. That's fine and good but means that there's often a secondary microcontroller that has to do the work, and there's always a lot of work to do that parsing and command handling. What we like about the nRF91 is that it comes as a cute SIP package, much smaller than most modules, and integrates an ARM Cortex M33 with 1MB of flash, 256KB of RAM that you can program directly. This is familiar to folks who use the nRF52 series, where the BLE stack is integrated in hardware/firmware through the 'SoftDevice' system. (https://infocenter.nordicsemi.com/topic/ug_gsg_ses/UG/gsg/softdevices.html) You get all the hardware-interfacing you need with 32 GPIO, 12-bit ADC, RTC, SPI, I2C, I2S, UART, PDM and PWM which means that ideally you can develop your entire product on a single chip without need for external peripherals or drivers. The nRF91 comes in three flavors: nRF9160-SIAA (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/nordic-semiconductor-asa/NRF9160-SIAA-B1A-R7/13533593) which has only LTE-M cellular support, nRF9160-SIBA (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/nordic-semiconductor-asa/NRF9160-SIBA-B1A-R7/13533587) which has only NB-IOT support, and the nRF9160-SICA (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/nordic-semiconductor-asa/NRF9160-SICA-B1A-R7/13533588) which has LTE, NB-IOT and GNSS. Each one has is pin-compatible but has different price levels, so pick the one that fits your budget and wireless needs. Note there's full 700MHz - 2.2GHz band support on each version of the SIP, so you don't have to order different SIPs for North America, South America, Asia, Europe, Africa, etc. There are global certifications available that you can look up to make sure you are cleared to integrate in any country you may need (https://www.nordicsemi.com/Products/Low-power-cellular-IoT/nRF9160-Certifications) The Nordic nRF9160 modules have been out for a few years, so there's lots of development boards you can use. For example, Nordic's in-house made dev board is fully featured with every add-on needed, plus Arduino-compatible headers (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/nordic-semiconductor-asa/NRF9160-DK/9740721). There's also the extremely well-named Nordic Thingy 91 (https://www.digikey.com/en/videos/n/nordic-semiconductor/introducing-the-nordic-thingy-91-cellular-iot-prototyping-platform) which is a great dev kit for designing compact, battery powered, sensor-filled prototypes. The prior is better when you want to have JTAG headers and connect lots of external hardware, the latter is good if you happen to have some overlap with the built in hardware and want to prototype user experiences. If you are a Feather Fancier, there's an nRF9160 Feather (https://www.digikey.com/short/94tc2w84) that you can use to make lightweight portable designs that plug into FeatherWings. Best of all, all three versions of the nRF91 (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/n/nordic-semi/nrf9160-sip) are in stock now for immediate shipment from Digi-Key! We recommend starting with the full-featured nRF9160-SICA (https://www.digikey.com/short/j97r25p7) as you can always place the final design with one of the pared down SIAA or SIBA when you go to production. Order today for instantaneous shipment, you'll have these in your hands by tomorrow afternoon.
The Wireless Access Providers Association (Wapa) recently called for government to free up vast tracts of radio frequency spectrum in the 6GHz band, claiming that doing so could drive a wave of economic growth. Wapa executive Paul Colmer joins the TechCentral podcast (listen below) to unpack why the association has made this call, and why it believes opening up the 6GHz band to unlicensed telecommunications providers could generate huge benefits for the country. Specifically, the spectrum could be used for Wi-Fi 6E, an evolution of Wi-Fi 6 (technically, 802.11ax) that exploits the 6GHz band. Wapa, which represents many of South Africa's wireless Internet service providers, said its own calculations suggest that more than R560-billion in increased GDP could be derived from freeing up 1.2GHz of spectrum around 6GHz. Two parts The Wi-Fi 6E band is broken up into two main portions: a lower band from 5 925MHz to 6 425MHz and an upper band from 6 425MHz to 7 125MHz. The Dynamic Spectrum Alliance has urged governments to provide unlicensed access to 700MHz of the upper band. But why should the band be made available on an unlicensed basis for Wi-Fi, rather than being allocated to mobile operators as so-called IMT spectrum for mobile broadband instead? What about existing users in the band? And if the band is made available on an unlicensed basis, how should it be done? In the podcast, Colmer looks at what other countries are doing with the band, and why he thinks the time is right for communications regulator Icasa to consider how it plans to make the band available for communications services. Don't miss the discussion.

India is slated to hold the 5G spectrum auction later this year. And the launch is envisaged in 2023. The 2016 and 2021 auctions ended on a whimper as more than 60% of the spectrum put up for sale remained unsold. Looking to avoid a repeat of the last two auctions, the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India has recommended a 36% cut in the reserve price for the prime 5G frequency of 3.3 to 3.67 GHz band for a pan-India use. This frequency, also called the mid-band 5G spectrum, has become the basis for the first implementations of 5G globally as it provides the right balance between coverage and capacity. Many countries around the world have already earmarked the mid-band spectrum for 5G. It can carry large amount of data while also achieving greater geographic coverage. The base price per megahertz has been cut from Rs 492 crore to around Rs 317 for a 20 year allotment. While this works out to around a 36% reduction, it is much lower than the industry demand, which was up to a 90% cut. In line with global trends, telcos in India will look to acquire 100 MHz of mid-band spectrum to run an efficient network, which at the base price will cost them Rs 31,700 crore for 20 years. An industry expert said that telecom companies would also need a large quantum of spectrum in the premium 700 Mhz band for a reliable 5G network. Telecom companies have already conducted 5G trials in the 700 MHz, 3.5 GHz, and 26 GHz bands. The reserve price for the 700 MHz band has been cut by 40% to Rs 3,927 crore per MHz for a 20-year pan-India coverage. The recommended base price is also 60% lower than the 2016 price. This band found no buyers in the last two rounds due to the extremely high reserve prices. This time it may see some demand. Low-frequency bands are ideal for use in rural areas, while they also help to improve indoor coverage in urban areas. ICICI Securities has however said the spectrum prices for 700MHz “still remain expensive”. We can still expect to see some action in the upcoming auction. While Bharti Airtel and Reliance Jio are well placed to participate in the auction, Vodafone Idea's ability to compete is constrained due to a weak balance sheet. Without significant fundraising, Vodafone Idea may be left behind. Analysts say this would lead to further market share gains for Jio and Airtel. TRAI has also recommended that telcos be allowed easy payment options, including part payment with the flexibility of moratorium. The government has to approve rhe regulator's recommendations before going ahead with the auction. How far will TRAI's recommendations go in generating interest in telecom companies for the 5G auction, only time will tell.
Happy 10th birthday Raspberry Pi! The tiny computer has come a long way in just ten short years. It all started when Raspberry Pi Foundation founders Eben Upton and Rob Mullins set out to create an affordable, easy-to-use computer that students could use to learn coding. And they succeeded - Raspberry Pi has become one of the most popular computers in the world, with millions of units sold.The Raspberry Pi HardwareThe first devices were not intended to be the massive platform they are today, Instead, the plan was simply to make a few thousand devices to encourage children to learn to code. Raspberry Pi devices were first sold in 2012, and the response was overwhelming. Not only did students love them, but makers and hobbyists snapped them up as well. It quickly became clear that there was a much larger market for the tiny computers than originally anticipated.The Raspberry Pi Foundation has always been focused on education, and they continue to work with schools and organizations around the world to promote coding and computer science education. In addition to their educational initiatives, they have also developed several tools and resources that have made it easier for makers of all levels to create amazing projects.Over the years, Raspberry Pi has undergone several iterations, each one more powerful than the last. The original Model B was followed by the Model B+, the Raspberry Pi Zero, the Raspberry Pi A+ and A series, the Raspberry Pi Compute Module, and the Raspberry Pi Model B+. Beyond that, there have been a whole lot more.The Raspberry Pi 4 is just one example of how much Raspberry Pi has changed over the years. The original Model B had just 256MB of RAM and a 700MHz single-core processor. The latest Raspberry Pi 4 has a quad-core processor clocked at up to 1.5 GHz, as well as 8 GB of RAM. It also features improved networking with dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) on board.In addition to hardware changes, the Raspberry Pi Foundation has also made several changes to the operating system over the years. The original Raspberry Pi devices ran on a modified version of Debian Linux, but the Raspberry Pi Foundation later developed their own operating system, Raspbian. Raspbian is based on Debian and is optimized for the Raspberry Pi hardware. Since then, the platform has transferred to Raspberry Pi OS, another Linux-based operating system.The Raspberry Pi communityAs amazing as all of the changes to Raspberry Pi have been, perhaps the most impressive thing about the tiny computer is the community that has grown up around it. There are now millions of Raspberry Pi devices in use all over the world, and there are countless projects and applications for them.From small projects like retro gaming consoles and media centers to large-scale deployments like industrial control systems and weather stations, Raspberry Pi is being used for everything. The possibilities are truly endless, and the Raspberry Pi community continues to come up with new and innovative ways to use the tiny computers.As Raspberry Pi celebrates its tenth birthday, it's clear that the best is yet to come. Thank you for being a part of this incredible journey, and we can't wait to see what the next ten years have in store for Raspberry Pi.

What changed in the radio landscape in 20 years post 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina here in the US? Have you ever wondered why we have so many new P25 systems showing up in the 700 MHz band? These are the questions we are asking in today's podcast. What You Need To Know 9/11 really brought to light some of the changes that had to happen with interoperability. Hurricane Katrina, which happened just four years later in 2005, also revealed that changes needed to happen. Responding agencies on 9/11 had communication problems on their own two way systems. They also lacked a structured plan for communicating to other agencies in real time to alert them of urgent risks to life and health. In order to open frequencies for public safety, Congress enacted Spectrum Act 2012 This directed the Commission to allocate the D block from 758 to 763 MHz and 788 to 793 MHz to public safety for use in a nationwide broadband network. FirstNet is charged with responsibilities for deploying and operating a nationwide public safety broadband network. In February of 2006 U.S. house of representatives voted 216 to 214 and approved a budget package that required analog television broadcasters to clear the 700-megahertz airwaves. Channels 70 to 83 are now part of the mobile radio system's public safety and trunk system. The National Interoperability Field Guide is a technical reference for multi-communication planning and for radio technicians responsible for radios that will be used in disaster response. This is why we see so many new P25 systems showing up in the 700Mhz band All session notes with links to the items we talked about can be found on our website at https://www.scannerschool.com/session195 ====================================

In this special edition of the TechCentral podcast, Duncan McLeod chats to three top industry experts to unpack communications regulator Icasa’s invitations to apply for broadband spectrum and for the wholesale open-access network (Woan). McLeod is joined by Steve Song, Kerron Edmunson and Mortimer Hope to discuss the ITAs in detail, including what they means for South Africa’s telecommunications industry and consumers. Song, who has many hats, including as fellow in residence at the Mozilla Foundation, Hope, who runs a policy and regulatory consultancy and who is a former director for Africa at the GSMA, and Edmunson, an attorney who specialises in telecoms policy and regulation, start by giving their high-level views of the spectrum ITA. What’s good about it, what’s not so good about it, and what needs to be fixed? The conversation then delves into greater detail, looking at the spectrum lots that Icasa has created for the auction and whether these make sense. Is Icasa trying to engineer a particular outcome? And if it is, is that a good thing or a bad thing? The three panellists then unpack the reserve prices set by Icasa. Are they too high? Too low? Just right? Is an auction the best model to use to allocate spectrum in an emerging market like South Africa? What will be the impact on retail prices? Who can afford to bid? What will it mean for competition? The discussion then turns to the digital dividend bands – 700MHz and 800MHz – still occupied by analogue television broadcasters. Should Icasa be licensing these bands at this stage? Will bidders be prepared to pay top dollar for access to bands they can’t fully utilise until at least 2022? Should South Africa give up on digital terrestrial television and free up all sub-1GHz spectrum for mobile? The panellists also tackle the obligations attached to the spectrum licences – are they fair? Do they make sense? What about the requirements around mobile virtual network operators? Does the requirement to support MVN

TechCentral — MTN South Africa chief technology and information officer Giovanni Chiarelli joins the TechCentral podcast to chat about the company's launch on Tuesday of its commercial 5G network and what was involved. In the podcast, Chiarelli talks about why MTN has chosen the cities and towns it has for the launch, why it's using different frequency bands - including 700MHz in Port Alfred - and why it won't be rushing to build a national 5G network until there's clarity on the outcome of a planned spectrum auction. Chiarelli also explains why MTN is deploying a technology known as dynamic spectrum sharing and why he believes this year's Apple iPhone 12 launch is going to propel consumer interest in 5G.
This week, Avram Piltch talks about some of the best and most unknown aspects of the Raspberry Pi computer. The Raspberry Pi entered the market 8 years ago, but with a different purpose than most might think. It was originally intended for Cambridge University, with a planned production of about 1000 units. Today, the brand has sold 31 million units - far more than the organization ever expected to produce.In those 8 years, there have been at least 18 models made available, with at least one specially produced model. In those models, the RAM has gone from 256MB on the original 1B to an optional 4GB on the 4B. The processing power has also increased significantly, from a single-core 700MHz processor on the original to the quad-core 1.5GHz processor on the current model.Somehow, even with all of the processing power enhancements over the years, the Raspberry Pi has technically gotten less expensive. The selling price has remained $35, but when you compare the value of the dollar in 2012 versus 2020, the original model would have sold for almost $40 in today's dollars. That means that we have gotten years worth of hardware enhancements for less relative dollars than the original.While the Raspberry Pi can be found in tons of applications, from web servers to robotics, there is one truly unique location for one of the computers: space. There are two "Astro Pis," which are specially modified Raspberry Pi B+ models (first generation). The computers had to be modified to deal with the oddities of space and to survive onboard the International Space Station. The European Space Agency runs contests to allow school children to have their code run on these computers.There's a lot more to know about the Raspberry Pi, which can be found in Avram's article at Tom's Hardware.
This week, Avram Piltch talks about some of the best and most unknown aspects of the Raspberry Pi computer. The Raspberry Pi entered the market 8 years ago, but with a different purpose than most might think. It was originally intended for Cambridge University, with a planned production of about 1000 units. Today, the brand has sold 31 million units - far more than the organization ever expected to produce.In those 8 years, there have been at least 18 models made available, with at least one specially produced model. In those models, the RAM has gone from 256MB on the original 1B to an optional 4GB on the 4B. The processing power has also increased significantly, from a single-core 700MHz processor on the original to the quad-core 1.5GHz processor on the current model.Somehow, even with all of the processing power enhancements over the years, the Raspberry Pi has technically gotten less expensive.

Rischio nelle onde elettromagnetiche dei cellulareRischio nei commenti onlineRischio nelle smart carRischio nella progettazione degli aerei.Quale e' la tua soglia di rischio accettabile ?Proviamo a cercare dei metodi.1) contesto2) complessità3) costo4) conseguenzeIn tema di privacy ci sono studi specifici. Non ne faccio ancora cenno, magari piu' avanti ok ? :)Puntata sponsorizzata da Talent Bay disponibile su www.thetalentbay.comGrazie a Polly e naturalmente l'affezionato ascoltatore :)"Ho ascoltato la puntata su smartphone e tumori... Non posso che concordare sul fatto che l'informazione dei media generalisti in merito alla "cancerogenicità" delle radio frequenze sia discutibile... e credo sia necessario fare un po' di chiarezza anche perché spesso si tratta di combinati disposti...Bisogna tener presente che ci sono "cose" cancerogene (direttamente responsabili della formazione dei tumori) e "cose" che sebbene non possano causare direttamente dei tumori possono facilitare il lavoro delle prime. Questa è una distinzione di cui spesso non si tiene debitamente conto... Inoltre per entrambe le categorie bisogna tenere conto delle "dosi" oltrepassate le quali si manifesta l'effetto deterministico...Per quanto riguarda esposizioni prolungate alle lunghezze d'onda e alle intensità di campo elettromagnetico in prossimità degli apparecchi cellulari la maggior parte degli studi indica non un'azione direttamente cancerogena ma un'azione agevolatrice... altri studi indicano invece una vera e propria azione cancerogena. Il tutto è complicato dal fatto che durante l'evoluzione della tecnologia cellulare frequenze e flussi sono cambiati (e stanno ancora cambiando) rendendo più difficile stabilire le soglie. Aggiungiamoci il fatto che spesso l'origine di un tumore può essere molteplice e quindi l'eziologia estremamente complessa da definire."Tutto questo per dire che in base ai dati attuali sembrerebbe che le radiofrequenze cellulari non siano cancerogene di per se ma che possano agevolare/accelerare l'insorgenza dovuta ad altre cause."Morale: le precauzioni indicate nell'episodio sono da tenere in seria considerazione.AGGIUNGO QUESTA RIFLESSIONE DI GHIBELLINI:"il 5g sarà su frequenzs alte per tutti gli operatori, tranne Iliad che sarà sui 700Mhz, e che avrà una capacità di penetrazione del segnale fino a 10 metri sotto terra e pochissime antenne (ricordate l'ETACS?) dato che ne basterebbe 1 per tutta l'Italia, potendo coprire con un imponente wattaggio un raggio fino a 1000km; mentre Vodafone etc avranno antenne tramite OPENfibre (https://openfiber.it/it/fibra-ottica/la-quinta-generazione-delle-reti-mobili/cose-il-5g) in ogni tombino ENEL, con coperture fino a massimo 100 metri e milliwattaggi, oltretutto i cellulari faranno da ripetitori/sponda al segnale. cosa sarà meglio?"Questa settimana episodio sponsorizzato da Talent Bay , podcast disponibile su www.talentbay.com
#WTF Episode นี้น้ำหวานพาไปไขข้อสงสัย และตอบคำถามต่าง ๆ เกี่ยวกับการเรียกคืนคลื่นความถี่ย่าน 700MHz ที่กสทช. มีการเรียกคืนคลื่นความถี่เพื่อนำไปใช้ประโยชน์ในกิจการโทรคมนาคมว่า เรียกคืนไปแล้วจะพอใช้ไหม ? น่าจะแล้วเสร็จเมื่อไหร่ ? คนที่ดูทีวีดิจิทัลตามบ้านจะต้องเตรียมตัวอะไรบ้างรึเปล่านะ ? อยากรู้ต้องฟังครับ
TechCentral — Mexico is often held up by the South African government as an example of a successful wholesale open-access network (Woan), the type of network it’s keen to roll out to make the local telecommunications market more competitive. But how successful has Mexico’s Woan – known as Red Compartida – been? TechCentral editor Duncan McLeod sat down with Fernando Borjón, general director of Mexico’s Telecommunications Investment Promotion Agency, or Promtel, to get a better understanding of the project, why the country embarked on it and the lessons learnt so far. In the podcast, Borjón talks about the history of the Mexican telecoms market, how it came to be dominated by one operator – Carlos Slim’s América Móvil – and how the country hopes Red Compartida will break Slim’s monopoly hold over the sector. What could – and should – South Africa learn from the Mexican example, and are the two markets even remotely comparable? Could a Woan help loosen MTN and Vodacom’s dominance on the country’s mobile sector? And what mistakes should be avoided? Borjón explains why Mexico decided to give Red Compartida exclusive access to the 700MHz band and not other bands, why the country mandated its creation in the constitution and what adoption has been like so far. It’s a fascinating discussion about a topic that has a direct bearing on the future of South Africa’s telecoms industry. Don’t miss it!
En el capítulo de hoy vamos a ver una introducción a Raspberry Pi, un mini-ordenador que nos permite hacer prácticamente de todo desde usarlo para servidor multimedia, hasta servidor de aplicaciones. Soporta diferentes sistemas operativos (Linux, Windows y Android) y es de un coste muy reducido. Hará las delicias de todos los apasionados de la tecnología.Para contactar con nosotros lo podéis hacer a través del formulario de contacto, de Twitter y de Facebook. Recordar que tenéis una lista de distribución a vuestra disposición a la que os podéis suscribir.Raspberry Pi es simplemente un ordenador, más pequeño de lo que estamos acostumbrados pero un ordenador al fin y al cabo. Fue desarrollado por la Fundación Raspberry Pi en el Reino Unido. La versión definitiva salió en el año 2012, unas 10.000 placas tras 6 años de desarrollo del proyecto. Su objetivo inicial era estimular la enseñanza de ciencias de la computación en los colegios e institutos del Reino Unido. Se trataba de construir un ordenador de muy bajo coste para que todo el mundo tuviera acceso a la programación. En la actualidad se usa para muchas cosas además de su principal objetivo.Este mini-ordenador permite emplear diferentes sistemas operativos, entre otras: Linux(con diversas distribuciones), FreeBSD, Android e ¡incluso Windows 10! Pronto hablaremos sobre los distintos sistemas operativos y describiremos cuáles son sus ventajasLas versiones que se están comercializando actualmente son las siguientes:Raspberry Pi 2 Model B:Es el último modelo disponible y el más potente, sus principales características hardware se basan en su nuevo procesador ARM Cortex-A7 de 900 Mhz de cuatro núcleos con 1Gb de RAM. Dispone de 4 puertos USB, HDMI, 1 puerto ethernet, jack de audio, interfaz de camara(CSI), DSI, Micro SD y 40 pines GPIO. Podemos encontrarlas en tiendas españolas sobre los 40 euros actualmente.Raspberry Pi 1 Model B+:Es la revisión definitiva de la Raspberry Pi 1 y el modelo que ha sido ya sustituido por la Raspberry Pi 2 pero desde la web oficial de raspberry continúa vigente. Respecto a la que Raspberry Pi 2 B cambia fundamentalmente el procesador(Broadcom BCM2835 a 700Mhz) y la memoria(512 GbRAM). Podemos encontrarlas en tiendas españolas sobre los 30 euros actualmente.Raspberry Pi 1 Model A+:Basado también en la Raspberry Pi 1, es el modelo económico, pequeño y más eficiente aún. Tiene unos 21mm menos de longitud y tiene un consumo de 600 mA. No tiene puerto ethernet pero sí que tiene un puerto USB. Las características técnicas son heredadas de la primera revisión de la Raspberry 1: Procesador Broadcom BCM2835 capaz y 256 de RAM. Podemos encontrarlas en tiendas españolas sobre los 27 euros actualmente.Sin duda un buen catálogo. No olvidemos que estos precio de los que hablamos solo incluyen la placa a la que tendremos que añadir cable micro USB, adaptador de corriente, tarjeta de memoria MicroSD y la caja. Lo que puede incrementar el presupuesto cerca de los 20 euros o más.Al tratarse de un ordenador: el límite lo pones tú, tu creatividad pone los límites para poder abordar cualquier proyecto que tengas en mente. Desde aquí te animamos a que nos hagas cualquier tipo de aportación, duda o sugerencia.Pronto publicaremos mucho más sobre Raspberry Pi!Recurso del díaWebmatrixWebMatrix es un servidor web de Microsoft cuya mayor ventaja es la sencillez. Ya hablamos en su día de las distribuciones de Apache como XAMPP. Microsoft ha rizado el rizo y ha creado un servidor web muy fácil de usar. Nos permite programar en ASP.NET y en PHP, utilizar la base de datos SQL Server Compact, orientada al desarrollo web, SQL Server y MySQL. Puedes crear un sitio web desde cero o utilizar alguna aplicación de código abierto como WordPress, Joomla o PrestaShop. Estas aplicaciones se instalan de una manera sencilla a través de un asistente. Es una buena opción para no complicarnos la vida en nuestros desarrollos y poder tener un servidor web totalmente operativo en nuestra casa.Pues hasta aquí el programa de hoy ya sabéis si os gusta el contenido y los mensajeros no dudéis en valorarnos en las diferentes plataformas de podcast iVoox, iTunes y Spreaker.
