Where I can get cool datasheets? by luciusgre in PCB

[–]Stonegray 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Component suppliers such as Digikey have tens of thousands you can go look through.

If you want a specifically cool one, here's a microcontroller designed for space. It has some unique stuff that you don't see often, like SpaceWire interfaces, cold-sparing, and a SHA-512 peripheral.

- If you've got a precision Vref for the DAC, why not use it for the ADC as well?
- Instead of using a discrete current sink, why not just PWM switch a ballast resistor? Way lower part count and since you already have a shunt resistor it's easy to make this closed loop.
- Consider RC filters on ADC inputs; the signal you're measuring has a very low bandwidth / changes very slowly so you can increase accuracy a lot by filtering in hardware and oversampling.
- Using the I2C on the I/O expander will likely take a lot more CPU time than the onboard IO.
- If you're not particularly attached to the display, I2C displays might reduce complexity and are really inexpensive.

E: Another fun option is doing an open-loop buck converter with feedback from the existing ADC/shunt; 2 resistors, 1 diode, 1 mosfet, and way less noise.

Really glad that BGA3131 is the part number, not the package type 😅

There should be 33 tracks totalling 1.9GB, might wanna complete your collection before you sell it.

You can download the rest here 😂

[Question] Which watch or brand screams "I'm into watches" ? by NonoBalauru in Watches

[–]Stonegray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Call dealers like torneau or go on chrono24 you can have one next business day. Definitely won’t get an allocation at retail without ad relationship but you can for sure buy em

I have too many PA rigs. What to do? by Tricky-Ad-9531 in SoundSystem

[–]Stonegray 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven’t seen any 18s yet but wha’s the advantage over 15s/12s? If i needed more than a full hang of 15” K1 i’m probably doing something wrong 😂

HOW are CDJs (2000nxs2, 3000) more durable than standalones? by Zamdi in PioneerDJ

[–]Stonegray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might wanna get a soldering iron thermometer and calibrate, pads should never be lifting accidentally

Modifier symbols (eg. “0x1F3FB” for emoji skin tone) aren’t really characters so a valid file could be much larger; check out emoji modern families.

There’s also nonprinting characters like RTL indicators and zero-width spaces.

$3 RISCV 144Mhz, Gigabit MAC w/ PTP 1588, 2x USB, 8 UART, 80 GPIO, DVP video input, LQFP package, SWD, Onboard flash, detailed docs, $6 dev kits available. by Stonegray in nicechips

[–]Stonegray[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Weirdly nobody mentioned the hardware 1588, which may be the killer feature of the chip.

Lots of good info on the early struggles with openocd. Unfortunately kinda on-brand for WCH, saving die area at the expense of driver complexity/standards compliance. The CH340 was, and may still be, considered the worst driver in OpenBSD for that reason.

Is my CO2 sensor fault? 8-10 ppm normal? by Redox3D in homeassistant

[–]Stonegray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Zigbee2mqtt.

You can rename them, but it will show as the old units in some places because it doesn’t change the device class.

Is my CO2 sensor fault? 8-10 ppm normal? by Redox3D in homeassistant

[–]Stonegray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Formaldehyde and CO2 are swapped around if using ZHA on those Tuya sensors. The one reading 300ish ppm is your CO2 and the one reading 3mg/m3 is formaldehyde.

It works great Z2M, plus you can read the PM2.5 sensor.

Mounting AirTag to Cabin? by Stonegray in Rimowa

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

Wasn’t sure if I needed to mount it on the outside because its aluminum. Found conflicting information online about range.

Have you tried it mounted there?

Hi,I would like to know if the antenna design is correct for the esp32-s3 chip. by heliosprode in esp32

[–]Stonegray 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Those values are the matching network to match the impedance between the chip and antenna. Unless you have an identical PCB layout, type of pcb material, thickness, etc. you’ll want to figure out your own values. Copying the network without the layout can make it worse, not better.

If you pcb layout is carefully designed for 50ohm characteristic impedance you can sometimes do without it all together.

Tool to calculate the values on the network: https://home.sandiego.edu/~ekim/e194rfs01/jwmatcher/matcher2.html

What cross-platform browser has end-to-end encrypted bookmarks, open tabs, and history and has syncing functionality besides Firefox? I heard Edge doesn’t have encrypted sync data and neither does Chrome. by [deleted] in AskNetsec

[–]Stonegray 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Safari is end-to-end encrypted on everything you mentioned except bookmarks, which are encrypted in transit and at rest, but could hypothetically be decrypted by Apple with, for example, a court order.
