  • CC2531 Zigbee Datasheet

  • Product Overview The CC2531 USB is a USB enabled true system-on-chip (SoC) solution for IEEE 802.15.4, cc2531 Zigbee and RF4CE applications. It enables USB dongles or USB upgradable network nodes to be built with low total bill-of-material costs....
  • Sym-1 plus EPROM

  • One of the popular chip formats in the 70's and 80's were the ubiquitous EPROMs (Electrically Programmable Read Only Memories). They had very good memory density at the time and were accessible technology for hackers and OEMs alike. They had the advantage...
  • Introduction to Raspberry Pi Zero

  • Background:       The pi zero is the smallest version of the Raspberry pi. It's a slightly bigger than a stick of gum but it's still a full ratified computer. It's fantastic for trading Time Lord Pi projects like sitting...
  • 40107

  • When I first signed up for this account I was like "oh yeah! I'm a pretty cool part-number!" And then I realized the part-number I thought I was was actually the 40106. ( @davedarko, I distinctly recall your calling me out on this one ;)Today I stumbled...
  • Sidekick project

  • The idea for this project occurred to me while I was implementing the PC Joystick adapter for #Control Freak , and the user @Dave's Dev Lab  mentioned that he had 300 IBM PC jr joysticks and I started to wonder if I could use the cheap Digispark...
  • Meet Elbert

  • Originally published in 2015. And now, for something completely different. Lest you think my interest in electronics begins and ends with blinkenlights, I’d like to introduce you to Elbert. The Elbert V2 from Numato is an entry-level FPGA board. The...
  • Using freeRouting with Kicad 5

  • I was not looking forward to the manual work of routing traces in pcbnew (Kicad 5) so I started looking for autorouters. In Kicad 5 this is currently done externally, whereas 4 had a builtin autorouter. Now I know this is a controversial topic because...
  • STM32F107RCT6 Microcontrollers Datasheet

  • Product Overview The STM32F105xx and STM32F107xx connectivity line family incorporates the highperformance ARM® Cortex®-M3 32-bit RISC core operating at a 72 MHz frequency, highspeed embedded memories (Flash memory up to 256 Kbytes and SRAM...
  • Enjoying Some 68k Retro Fun with Rosco_m68k

  • With some extra "stay at home" time on my hands, I was looking around for a retro project to work on (and have some fun by learning something).  While I enjoy 8-bit CPUs and there are a lot of great 8-bit 6502 and Z-80 (and other) retro system projects...
  • In-circuit testing using Intel HEX file components

  • Some background... The main purpose of my Intel HEX project was to: Check how difficult it is to create non-CPU controllers using microcodeImprove my microcode compiler based on real projectGive me a tool for priming memory of FPGA-based computers when...
  • Teasing a few GPIO lines from a UART

  • So you have an old microcomputer board that has a UART but no PIO. Maybe one like mine. No chance then of driving a couple of digital I/O lines unless you add a PIO chip? Hmm, let's look at the data sheet for the Intel 8251, a typical UART of a...
  • Aluminum PCB

  • General advent of Aluminum PCB Among all Metal center PCBs, Aluminum PCB is the maximum not unusualplace type. The base cloth includes an aluminum center and general FR4. It functions a thermal clad layer that dissipates warmth in a notably green way...
