I decided to build a FP with 8-bit exponent and 9-bit mantissa (and with no NANs, infinities, denorms or rounding).The sum of the bit-lengths (plus one sign bit) means that the FP number fits into a 18-bit M4K block word on the CycloneII FPGA. The 9-bit...
## What is it?Project RE-birth 2nd is the spiritual continuation of [Project RE-birth](https://web.archive.org/web/20210307031049/ym2203.com) In 2021, for unknown reasons, the Japanese closed the ym2203.com website, deleted all public...
As noted in our previous column, in the not-so-distant future we’re going to start creating simple circuits using resistors and light-emitting diodes (LEDs), but we first need to learn enough about resistors to ensure we use the right ones when the occasion...
Background:I wanted a charger for portable power that could be used with solar panels, TEG elements and dynamo. It was also important that the charger could take all available power. I quickly realized that LiFePO4 are the best batteries available. LiFePO4...
Way back in the late 80s, I remember seeing a TV show (I think it was Amazing Stories) which featured an interesting clock. It was round, black, about the same size as a normal wall clock, and all done up in LEDs. The LEDs appeared to be what I now recognize...
What I wanted out of this supply:Be small and compactoutput adjustable to 20VUse mostly salvaged and recycled componentsdisplay the voltage and currentFine adjustment of output voltageAdjustable current limiting up to 1AMains suppliedLinear topology...
Step 1: Understanding of Transhumanism - Interviews In order to define what is the best way to become a machine, I have been in transhumanism meetings organized by "London Futurist", the London most influent group lead by David Wood. From those discussions,...
The goal of this task is to describe the steps needed to translate a neural network onto a discrete component implementation Sample neural network As a starting point we'll use a simple neural network with two inputs or signals and two outputs or classes....
Hello guys, today we are going to make a remote-control universal switch on/off 3 channel circuit. Though this we can control any load like: fan, light, bulb, TV, charger or any other electrical appliances under 1000watts. This circuit can be controlled...
Cars run to and fro, maybe it's at the intersection or at the gate of the parking lot. But no matter when and where, in a world where cars occupy the streets and lanes and are closely related to our lives, such scenes will only become more and more frequent....
The previous month, I made an Electric board relay-controlled circuit. Using the exact schematics and circuit diagram, I want to build an IR controlled Electric extension board. Keeping the form factor in mind, I designed a PCB and ordered it from JLCPCB....
The weather station project is still at the proof of concept stage but the last few articles have run through the concepts for connecting several sensors to the Digistump Oak microcontroller. In this article we will look at the basic (and I stress basic)...
Sample Below is a sample of the serial monitor output window. Cycle #89 Clear distance to front: 0-In 0-Cm Temperature: 21-C 71-F System Arming State: Disarmed Transmission State: Neutral Turn State: Going Straight Spin State: Not Spinning Throttle...
It all began with a big letdown. Back in 2010 when the grass was greener and the blues bluer i decided to stop ruining my eyes and start taking a part in the e-ink revolution. I choose the IREX DR1000S for obvious reasons. The size and the possibility...
Lights: There are almost 250 lights on LUT, not including the swing arms. To get the correct scale look, the proper number of lights, fairly dim will be the best. For this I had a bag of 3mm white LEDs from a previous project. I ordered another 200,...
