When entering a short test sequence on my remote this is what my receiver displays (a dot means an exact repetition of the previous packet):All on: 07 B0 F2 EA 35 90 01 B9 AC F9 .......................... 07 B0 F2 EA 35 90 00 B9 74 E0 .. Color red: 07...
Tonight I gathered some reference/research material for this project. Fortunately, several others have done some really great work with this module, so here's credit to them: LTC3780 DatasheetBeyond Logic blog postTemplaro blog postGreat Scott videoJulien...
I'm going to create a stand-alone PSoC project to use the PSoC to read SD cards. I'm going to start with the hardware defines for this project (which should leave the Z80 hardware pins unmolested) and just not download code. For the software piece, I...
The STM32 board was just a hair bigger than the PIC, but the biggest pieces are still the power switch, channel button, & battery. The plan is just to print an L enclosure which scotch tapes around the hot shoe & sticks up. The antenna will...
Initially I thought the data stream from the camera board to the quadcopter controller was PPM. This signal is only active when the app is running and the on-screen controls are brought up. The quadcopter has to be power-cycled in order to be controlled...
For quite some time I have been thinking about the possibility to using a laptop to run all the heavy OpenPlotter and OpenCPN stuff instead of using a Raspberry Pi. The performance of the RPi is... well it's usable but it's not a pleasant user experience....
The first step in reverse-engineering any radio protocol is to listen to it on the air. The advent of software-defined radio makes this much, much, easier than before. For this project I've used a nuand bladeRF board and the GNURadio software stack,...
I was looking for a way to make the Excel Paper Model for the Z30 calculate the stepping points so it would be a complete model of the machine. The example shown below is for a rotor with a Ring Setting of 4, the 1 mark on the ring is set to the 4 position...
The rest of the boards just came:I think I will connect them together through wire-wrapped "motherboard" (lets call it "NEDONAND-10" ; )All of these NEDONAND components could be tested one by one using PIC microcontroller (connected to PC through RS-232)...
Indeed, immediately after running the Windows software in a VM with the device connected I was getting a live data log of the CO₂ concentration! This screenshot shows me breathing into the vicinity of the sensor:Ok, time to disconnect the device from...
Before I began the layout of the DDL4-CPU, I came up with an initial Instruction Set Architecture (ISA) for the design. It went through several revisions as I was designing the boards and refined the components. Here at the last minute as I am...
Cut all 2x4's and 4x4's. Here is my cut list:9 ea 2"x4"x33"4 ea 2"x4"x48"4 ea 4"x4" x 22 1/2"Started assembly. Table is wider than my doors so I have to do assembly in my basement.
Reading this Japanese article on a kit sold in Japan to build a Z80-MCB, I realized the presence of a possible bug seeing this two images: As you can see, there is a Z80-MCB without any Virtual Disk or RTC attached and in the resulting screenshot the...
Plascii Petsma by Cruzer/Camelot has one of the nicest looking plasma effects I've seen for the C64. Since he included the source code, I was able to port it to the Z80 and TMS9918. On top of the features in the original C64 version, I have...
In this chapter, the fundamental concepts of hexapod robots such as walking gaits, stability, kinematics and dynamics are covered which are essential to obtain a better understanding of the control architecture that is delivered in the next chapter....
