  • EDID Inserter

  • The DVI to HDMI Pinout Schematic http://goo.gl/sN0o27 shows the front view of a female connector which of course at the same time depicts the PCB-side pinout of a male plug viewed from rear. When a suitable platform has been found and pried open......we'll...
  • Prototypes are GO!

  • Well we missed our January 18th target by 2 days, but the prototype design has been ordered. We hope to have them in house by February 15th. This gives us about 2 weeks of slack time in case the fab and assembly takes longer than expected.We did an initial...
  • Boards have arrived!

  • I sent the gerbers off to China as the UK board fabs were really expensive for a 10x10cm board (about £35-50 per unit!) and only could do 7 day turnaround at a sensible cost. I went with a fab called Smarter-Prototyping (NOA Labs) and they turned...
  • New Tool: Sewing Machine

  • Recently, I've been slowly gathering resources for this project. Just a few days ago, I scored a very nice sewing machine for $15 at a local Goodwill. It would not run when the foot pedal was depressed, but the light came on and smacking the pedal would...
  • Please just work -Eric

  • Hey guys,Since I last talked to you I have still been trying to troubleshoot the ATmega328p, in particular burning a bootloader onto it. I successfully burned a bootloader onto another uno using an uno, which I just did as a sanity check to make sure...
  • Parts Layout

  • I couldn't find my breadboard, but managed to dig out an old Arduino Mega with a prototyping shield. That should do the trick ha ha!The Mega can act as the slave for now. On Monday I'm going to solder some headers onto the protoshield for the Wemos D1...
  • PCBs have just arrived!

  • Luckily, everything went perfect during the prototyping stage: No MOSFETS died, the microcontroller didn't turn off when the gun was firing, and the motor driver worked fine. So after drawing the circuit and designing the PCB in KiCad we decided to send...
  • Wiring Up the OctosonarX2

  • The OctosonarX2 is a lot busier than the Octosonar but the connections to the Arduino are exactly the same - so see above for that. The only difference is that the V1 and address solder jumpers are on the front of the board.The OctosonarX2 base address...
  • Prototype is as Prototype does...

  • In the normal business model of creating electronics and products in general, prototyping plays a really strong role in "getting it right". One thing that I've really taken advantage of during the development process for the WITCH-E project is doing...
  • Blogged

  • First, got my project on the front page of Hackaday which I thought was very cool. Thanks to everyone for the encouragement!Second, I figured I'd better check out the rest of my board. I soldered on the microSD card receptacle and the Bluetooth comm...
  • DIY Smart Home bedside remote

  • Step 4: SET UP YOUR ANTENNA This step is only needed if you want to connect a RF socket to your bedside remote. If you have opted for a RF module and a DIY antenna, you need to solder them together.Make sure the soldering connects the antenna to the...
  • Week 1: first lamp idea done (mostly)

  • After having this idea so many years ago, I finally have a desktop-sized extant version of it. It's pretty cool. It's made from cheap aluminum extrusion, a chunk of waste walnut, WWA LEDs strip, and my rotary encoder test board. It has several issues...
  • HW fixes

  • After my honeymoon trip and triathlon race, I finally found the time to fix those bugs. Broken LDO was replaced by some similar 3V3 LDO in SOT 32-5 package from an older project. It did the job well, and 3V3 as well as other voltage, were present at...
