The four-member PIC24FJ256GB210 microcontroller family integrates USB for Embedded Host/Peripheral/On-the-Go and 96 Kbytes of RAM. This large RAM enables the buffering of sizeable amounts of data and better overall throughput, for applications such as Ethernet connectivity, remote sensing, data logging and audio streaming. It can also be used to store generated images or data for dynamic content, such as real-time, remote sensor data graphs. In combination with Microchip’s free USB software library and TCP/IP stack, these MCUs lower system costs and footprints in a broad range of industrial, instrumentation/measurement, medical and consumer applications.

Talks and performances by people doing strange things with electricity

Fri 23 March 2012, 6.30-10pm with interval at the Showroom Cinema, Sheffield.

 

Dorkbot is a meeting of people interested in electric/electronic art in the broadest sense; robotics, kinetic art, microcontrollers, interactive art, algorithmic music, net.art... The only real conditions are that it is a bit strange and involves electricity in some way. It is really defined by whoever turns up, be it engineers who want to be artists, artists who want to be engineers, or the otherwise confused.

 

This MEGADORK event features a cabaret of talks and performances from among the UK's dorkiest, to entertain and amaze:

 

Paul Granjon - A strange performance from the world renowned self-styled robot artist.

www.zprod.org/

 

Patrick Tresset - Talks about his drawing robot Paul (on show as part of the Alan Turing: Intuition and Ingenuity exhibition).

www.aikon-gold.com/

 

Daniel Jones and James Bulley - talking about generating live music from patterns of weather.

www.variable4.org.uk/about/intro

 

Sarah and Jenny Angliss - playing robot music from past futures.

spacedog.biz

 

Sergi Jorda - talks about the Reactable tangible tabletop music playground (which you'll be able to try out at the Central Library Saturday 24 March)

Dan Stowell - Demonstrates his use of the Risset illusion in techno music.

www.mcld.co.uk/

 

Silicone Bake - Live coded pop songs about love, death and counterfeit watches, where all lyrics are taken from spam emails.

 

Megadork is curated by Alex McLean.

 

Dorkbot started in New York, spread to London, and now dozens of cities around the world, including several active UK chapters; Sheffield, Bristol, Anglia, Newcastle, Cardiff and Alba (Scotland). Find out more at: www.dorkbot.org

Les Belles Noiseuses vs. the Tower of Boobs

The 8 pins PIC12F683 microcontroller is one of the smallest members of the Microchip 8-bit microcontroller families but equipped with powerful peripherals such as ADC and PWM capabilities. This make this tiny microcontroller is suitable for controlling the DC motor speed. In order to demonstrate the PIC12F683 capabilities and to make this tutorial more attractive, I decided to use the PIC12F683 microcontroller to generate simple and yet fascinating laser light show from a cheap keychain laser pointer. For more information please visit www.ermicro.com/blog/?p=1622

The little daughter-board with eight resistors and LEDs plugs into the Port D connector of the AVR.

Closeup of the serial interface header pins, from below.

PARC Repeater Controller board

Change of plan: I decided to use female connectors for the I/O ports instead of pins. The Molex KK connectors are nice and simple, but I had another look at the Arduino and realised that sockets would make more sense. This way, I can wire up a LED to a couple of header pins and plug it in -- at a pinch, I can just plug wires in directly. In this photo, I've soldered the main chip socket, the crystal parts, the decoupling capacitors, the programming socket and the reset button.

First Beagleboard project - "OpenSprinkler" sprinkler system.

The PIC16(LF)190X family supports many general-purpose applications and enables the implementation of LCD into any design, such as security tokens, smart cards, medical devices, home appliances, or any application involving a simple LCD display.

chipKIT Pro MX4 : Embedded Systems Trainer Board

 

The chipKIT™ Pro MX4 is a microcontroller development board based on the Microchip® PIC32MX460F512L, a member of the 32-bit PIC32 microcontroller family. It is compatible with Digilent's line of Pmods, and is suitable for use with the Microchip MPLAB® IDE tools. The chipKIT Pro MX4 is also compatible for use with the chipKIT MPIDE development environment.

 

The chipKIT Pro MX4 provides 74 I/O pins that support a number of peripheral functions, such as USB controller, UART, SPI, and I2C ports as well as five pulse-width modulated outputs and five external interrupt inputs. Fifteen of the I/O pins can be used as analog inputs in addition to their use as digital inputs and outputs.

Summary of Features:

XMC1100 (ARM® Cortex™-M0 based)

On-board J-Link Lite Debugger

(Realized with XMC4200 Microcontroller)

Power over USB (Micro USB)

ESD and reverse current protection

2 x user LED

Pin Header 2x8 Pins suitable for Breadbord

The MRF24J40MB is Microchip’s second 2.4 GHz Radio Frequency (RF), surface-mountable transceiver module. This new module adds +20 decibels per milliwatt (dBm) of transmit power via an integrated Power Amplifier (PA) and -102 dBm of receive sensitivity via the integrated Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) to the proven IEEE 802.15.4 compliant transceiver, PCB antenna and discrete matching circuitry. More transmit power allows designers to expand the range of their IEEE 802.15.4-based ZigBee or proprietary-protocol wireless networks.

Block Diagram of Microchip's 32-bit PIC32 "MX1" and "MX2" Microcontrollers

This is how I'm programming the AVR microcontrollers. I made a little carrier board to hold the standard 6 way socket which connects to the Adafruit USBtiny ISP. My breadboard power supply provides power for the micrcontroller and the whole lot is connected with breadboard wires. The LEDs on this board are for testing the software I'm currently working on. A short time ago the NRM had the Great Gathering and had six of Sir Nigel Gresley's A4 locomotives (including Mallard, which still has the steam locomotive speed record) all in one place. Two have now left but four still remain.

Part of my final project for "Electron Wrangling for Beginners" class at Machine Project gallery in Echo Park.

 

My project involved building an optical tape reader out of legos. I mounted an LED and a photo-resistor inside a lego brick (using a Dremel tool and hot glue). Then a built

a black chamber around this sensor, so that the light levels could be controlled.

 

A paper tape with color bars is fed thru the chamber, using lego "capstans". This produced 10 reliable light levels on the photo resister. After finding that the resister was returning values on a logarithmic curve, I modified the printed color bars so that it would return linear values.

Breadboard. The upper chip is the microcontroller, the lower one (hidden by the orange wires) is the DAC.

Microchip's low-cost ENC624J600 standalone, IEEE 802.3™ compliant, 100 Mbps Ethernet interface controllers. These Ethernet controllers combine a 10/100Base-TX physical interface (PHY) and a Media Access Controller (MAC) with a hardware cryptographic security engine, and can connect to any PIC® microcontroller via an industry-standard Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) or a flexible parallel interface. Additionally, each device has a unique, factory-preprogrammed MAC address and 24 Kbytes of configurable SRAM for packet transmit/receive buffering and data storage. This combination of speed, flexibility and features enables designers to create fast, secure network- and Internet-connected embedded applications with minimized board space, cost and complexity. All of Microchip’s Ethernet products, tools, documentation and other design resources can be found on the Company’s online Ethernet Design Center, located at: www.microchip.com/Ethernet
