  • The 7 segment decoder, done wrong.

  • Hi,   I'm Rue Mohr, you might know me from such places as the internet, the information superhighway, or the world wide web. Today I'd like to tell you about an adventure in optimization of a 7 segment decoder. (7 segment display with the highly...
  • Lions vs Ben Heck

  • The fight to make a CAD model leaves the lion kingdom feeling a bit under accomplished, compared to Ben Heck. Although his show only covers baby projects, he obviously is very skilled in CAD tools, electronic design tools, FPGA programming tools, embedded...
  • How to make kids interested in programming

  • Absolutely hated any higher level language than assembly as a kid. Programming was only a means to draw fast graphics, rather than an end or a way to make money as taught nowadays.  The outcome of the act was the key. Assembly language was the only...

  • Myths and legends of PIC microcontrollers

  • I built this list, because sometimes I'm bored enough to write the same things again and again, so I have stable place to link. 1) PICs require awkward proprietary tools based on Windows, so you can't use it on Linux or Mac. Nope, see points 2 and 3....
  • Interrupt driven MSX tape read

  • I've been following athread on MSX.org to add recording functionality to Casduino. So far the tape reading is being done using sampling / signal processing but the real bottleneck seems to be the latency of the SD card writing. Worth to notice that the...

  • From the Intelligent Toasters blog:Retro CPC Dongle – Part 18I’ve been working on, replacing the NAND raw flash with an eMMC chip on the CPC2.0 board.I wrote about raw flash and the challenges of writing a flash translation later in part 16 of this series....
  • Driving LED Matrices Conveniently

  • You can make a pretty neat low-resolution display out of LEDs arranged in rows and columns — you can even buy ready matrices that save you a lot of work with it. You "only" need one GPIO pin per every row and every column (you can save a lot of them...
