The 5.21E ROM works file with the current board, but the 7.11A ROM uses a different pin for the vertical sync signal. This can be fixed, but then the 5.21E ROM results in no display. Rather than fixing the hardware (with a jumper to be changed when the...
Revisiting the RAM signature stamping knowing what I know now, I can better see what's going on and record that knowledge. The RAM stamping routine now looks like this:F723 ; stamp 'ram valid signature' on RAM page 0 and 3 F723 stampRAMsignature_F723:...
Switching over to an ARM based solution is much better than an AVR+RTC chipset solution. Been looking at the STM32F030 chip and it is a perfect fit for this application! It has the following very desirable characteristics:32.768kHz oscillator on-chip....
I took a perfboard and soldered up power and the data/address busses of the MCU, SRAM, NVRAM and the address bus latch.I did't really care about the exact order of the bits when wiring them up, I just went for the easiest layout. I'm not really sure...
The end goal for the Autodro is a complete monitoring system for under $10. This means that cheaper, simpler, less accurate sensors are needed. I've started with a simple EC sensor, and am hoping to design something around $1.So far, I've created a sensor...
I think about Terminal-BASIC based programmable calculator, like MK-90 I am planning to use Arduino DUE, TFT screen schield and custom matrix keyboard of40-64 keys.Does anybody know, if this shield is compatible with arduino DUE?Actually, I'v just tried...
At last, I found a bit in EC RAM that is used to enable EC ACPI, so ACPI is working now. I copied the ASL code from vendor DSDT, and now battery, AC, and lid status change can be detected by OS now.https://review.coreboot.org/#/c/19072/
I just got the pH portion of the circuit working. There actually wasn't anything wrong with the circuit. It turns out that the probe that I was initially was using was bad. I tried a different brand and it worked perfectly. The working probe is listed...
I also wanted to sniff the communication between the micro controller and radio IC, but couldn't get the case of the remote control open. At the next opportunity I brought the Mi-Light Wi-Fi controller with me and got that open more or less easily:Inside...
This Blog will Cover How to build a cheap EC meter for your aquaponics/Hydroponics or water quality related projects. We are not going to get into what the ideal value of PPM or EC is, Just cover how to measure and quantify a fluid.We will be using this...
There are several translation routines found during the file sending stuff that translate one character value into another one. Some we understand, like this one:F4DC sub_F4DC: F4DC 84 7F anda #$7F ; reset high bit F4DE 16 tab F4DF 4F clra F4E0...
