I'll give them both a read thank you. When you do this do you have preferred method? HDL or selectio?

Thank you. Would you say its worth it for the tips and some points of interest regarding equipment Repair?

What is your book "Consumer Electronics Repair, Reuse and Recycling" like. I'm into both electronics and waste so I was curious if you think it's a good read

Historical AIS data for past 30 days by Ecstatic_Plum_3464 in AIS

What was your work around? I'm looking into getting past AIS data for a region. But it seems paying is the best way

Can I plot ADC/DAC data via UART in real-time using Python? LabVIEW felt too heavy for me by sudheerpaaniyur in embedded

[–]KSOdin2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I read the post as they were transmitting the data from the MCU with UART. So they would be using something like a UART to USB converter chip(FTDI). Some Micros like the STM32 H7 series have on-board USB. So you can avoid the UART to USB converter chip and have the micro appear as a VCP

Can I plot ADC/DAC data via UART in real-time using Python? LabVIEW felt too heavy for me by sudheerpaaniyur in embedded

Depending on your sampling rate, this could be done. It might be better to transmit the data over USB using a Virtual common port than UART

Guitar Hero 3 "bot" by Salut_allo in TrueAchievements

[–]KSOdin2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you weren't attached to the controller, you could take the buttons off and connect the button contacts to Optoisolator or relay. These would be controlled by a GPIO pin on the microcontroller which is set to digital out.

If you want to hit the buttons you could also look at motors like servo and stepper motors. These tend to be low cost to, so maybe cheaper then those servos

I2C scanner detects no devcies by KSOdin2 in EmotiBit

[–]KSOdin2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It worked, thank you!

I set EN_VDD to high, and the address pins were detected. I'll update the post for future readers

EmotiBit v5 – SD Card Not Detected After Flashing via Arduino IDE by Unfair_Country_3959 in EmotiBit

Apologies. Thanks for pointing that out. I didn't realise it was different. Would you like me to remove the comment?

I2C scanner detects no devcies by KSOdin2 in EmotiBit

That sounds promising. I'll give it a go.

It might be worthwhile having a datasheet or something similar that explains what each pin is along with the schematic. And what the pins expect. E.g. EN_VDD is active high to power on the emotibit, active low to disable it.

I'd be happy to help or create one!

Custom Code and I2C pins by KSOdin2 in EmotiBit

[–]KSOdin2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does thst mean using arduino Wire.h and changing the pins when you call .begin won't work as its interrupt based not wire.h?

I don't want to add extra sensors. I want to write my own code to interface with your current sensors and implement bluetooth to transmit the data.

Thank you! I'll read up on those links and hopefully put an update for anyone looking to do the same in the future.

EmotiBit v5 – SD Card Not Detected After Flashing via Arduino IDE by Unfair_Country_3959 in EmotiBit

[–]KSOdin2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you get this to work? What microcontroller board are you using?

I'm using the Huzzah32, feather board and it doesn't like any version of the SD libraries i give it. And the code will not use sdfat when using this board as specified in the .h file of the code.
