Maybe Feather?
Log from Kubik M0
I still have no strength to sit down and program a proper gait, but I keep thinking about the mechanical design and having ideas. One thing I'm going to need is some kind of an expansion socket on the front part of the robot, so that I can connect different...

Designing the nRF9160 Feather
Log from The nRF9160 Feather
Whenever I design a board, I optimize as much as possible. Layer count, part count and even part location can play a big role in how much assemblies cost later down the road. In this article, I go into depth about the decisions I made when designing...

New Feather Wing viEwMotion Board
Log from viEwMotion
I successfully etched a new board (after thickening traces, etc as much as possible). I cleaned and etched the board, re-flowed all the SMD parts, drilled holes for jumpers and header pins (and hand soldered all of that stuff) it was time to check...

The nRF9160 Feather Is Now Served
Log from The nRF9160 Feather
I was a complete failure. My prototype wasn’t working. I spent at least an hour trying to rework a frustratingly large LTE module on an impossibly small circuit board. It wasn’t going to work. So I went back to the drawing board. I poured my years of...

Getting Zephyr Running on the nRF9160 Feather
Log from The nRF9160 Feather
In this post, I’ll be outlining my first experiences with Zephyr and nRF Connect SDK. If you’re not familiar, Zephyr is an up and coming RTOS for embedded devices. It brings things like threads to tiny little processors so that your real time tasks can...

Example: Power of Feather M0 Adalogger
Log from MetaShunt: High Dynamic Range Current Measurement
As an example to show MetaShunt's capability, I created an Arduino sketch for the Adafruit Feather M0 Adalogger which would toggle the onboard LED and use various low power modes. This microcontroller development board was then connected to MetaShunt:...

How To Add Bluetooth to your Zephyr powered nRF9160 Feather
Log from The nRF9160 Feather
One of the cool things about Zephyr is its modularity. It’s also one of things that makes development on the platform difficult. This is especially true if you’re not use to the recursive nature of CMake or how to configure it in the first place!...

Swap MKR 1300 LoRaWAN for Adafruit Feather M0 LoRa Radio
Log from Low Power High Accuracy Weather Station
I've been really struggling getting the Arduino MKR1300 to work properly - A simple delay after powering up moisture pin seemed to fix it:Old code: digitalWrite(moisturePowerPin, HIGH); // Powers up the moisture sensor for 0.1 seconds to prevent corrosion....

Float like a feather and string like a USB.
Log from Amherst Makerspace Maker Station
The ESP 32 devices come in every shape and size imaginable! If we are going to have any hope of a future capable design we need some kind of standard to work with. Both Sparkfun and Adafruit sell several flavors of device on a form factor called "Feather"....

Dwalin: Power management problem
Log from Home environment monitor
I'm moving Dwalin from the breadboard stage to prototype in the enclosure. As part of this, I'm setting it up so that the Pi can turn off power to the Feather in order to run the Feather from the LiPo battery once a week. Unfortunately I've run into...

Hardware
Log from Seashell Hydrophone Listener
The hardware setup for this build is fairly straightforward. The ESP8266 (I used Adafruit's Feather HUZZAH) is connected to a VS1053 decoder chip with the SPI bus. The VS1053 is connected to a small powered speaker (I just used one I already had laying...

Soldering Notes and OLED Wiring Mystery
Log from ArduAOA
Follow steps to solder connections:Attached OLED wing to Feather using soldering notes provided by Adafruit. Really needed a third hand. My result is that the wing is slightly off parallel. The side away from USB is slightly closer...

Dwalin: More fitting work in the enclosure
Log from Home environment monitor
More fitting work, soldering up headers. Stack from bottom to top: Adafruit Feather M0 ExpressAdafruit Latching Relay wing, Raspberry Pi Zero WAdafruit Raspberry Pi Protosheild (I didn't do enough research on this - it's the older 26 pin header not the...

Looks like it'll be Arduino Code, not CircuitPython
Log from BBQ Thermostat
After my hardware switch to Unexpected Maker's Feather S2, Sparkfun's MCP6900, and Adafruit motor board (I need to update my BOM) - I waited throughout the Circuit Python 6.x series to see if they would fix the fact that the Sparkfun wouldn't work with...

USB Host #2
Log from Merlin
I have my cheapo mini usb host shield (max3421e) connected up to a 3.3v 328p feather board. the arduino code translates the USB HID data to ps2 data for the fpga system - giving usb mouse and keyboard via a powered hub. I think I may have space for usb...
