Hi fellow Hackers, Every hacker's project published on Hackaday has some sort of back story, and a history of personal achievements and journeys. These are my personal reminiscences sparked off by the desire to revisit to the world of the Sym-1. You...
The Sipeed Longan Nano development board by Seeed Studio is based on the Gigadevice GD32V which implements the RISC-V architecture. It has an impressive list of features, which you can read for yourself. Low power consumption is claimed as one, a third...
Product Overview The TDA1543 is a monolithic integrated dual 16-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) designed as an economy version for use in hi-fi digital audio equipment such as Compact Disc players, digital tape or cassette recorders, digital sound...
Having started off using an stm8s, and then moving to an stm8l, making a batch of gadgets, and having a really good time getting there, then having some supply issues, and now using a smaller stm32, I've picked up some good information over the past...
PIC16F877a is a low-power microcontroller device in the 16-pin family of PIC® microcontrollers. It features an enhanced instruction set, greater program space and data memory space than its predecessor, and on-chip peripherals to simplify system...
General Description The regulators of the LM2576 series are monolithic integrated circuits that perform all active operations. A step-down (buck) switching regulator capable of driving a 3A load with good line and load control is available...
What we usually call "chip" refers to a silicon chip containing an integrated circuit, which is small in size and is often part of a computer or other electronic equipment. Chip or microcircuit, microchip, integrated circuit (English: integrated circuit,...
The Sym-1 was created by Synertek in the age of Teletypes ASR-33 when they were pretty much the best "golden standard" interface available for some, and for others the cheapest was the ubiquitous Hex keyboard and display. Well it was 1978, or thereabouts,...
tl;dr: Use the pin-invert function on an FT232 to read an S.BUS stream into a PC without needing extra components to invert the signal. Thereby, take the S.BUS output of an R/C Tx/Rx and pipe it straight into vJoySerialFeeder which parses...
MSP430™ is a 16-bit microcontroller of Texas Instruments. In this tutorial, we will create basic hardware for controlling LED strips. The Microcontroller We will use MSP430G2553, with 512B of RAM and 16kB of Flash program memory. This is sufficient...
As basic and as fun as it comes, this box contains 3 relays that simply pass through power on three different voltage rails. Isolation is about 250V and the current rating is 10-15A depending on factors. Power by USB 5V and TTL signaled from a BNC, it's...
Arduino LED 8X8 DOT Matrix Display with MAX7219 The Dot Matrix display is so useful that every enthusiast once came across it. It is a two dimensional patterned LED array that is used to represent character, symbol and images. Almost every outdoor LED...
Even though it's the smallest Arduino board, the Arduino beetle still has all the features of the Arduino Leonardo. This board is an impressive complement to the Arduino technology's understated design. The Atmel Atmega32u4 microprocessor serves as its...
directMessage A custom-designed hardware that establishes secure communication with identical devices through a dedicated 865MHz (EU868/US915/AU915/KR920/IN865) channel, utilizing the Lora E5 SOC (Wio-E5) from Seeed Studios. I would like to express...
