Microchip's PIC32 “MX1” and “MX2” MCUs are the smallest and lowest-cost PIC32 microcontrollers, and are the first PIC32s to feature dedicated audio and capacitive-sensing peripherals. These latest PIC32 MX1 and MX2 MCUs also feature USB On-the-Go (OTG) capabilities, making them ideal for developing audio accessories and other applications in the consumer, industrial, medical and automotive markets.
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.
Patrick Tresset - Talks about his drawing robot Paul (on show as part of the Alan Turing: Intuition and Ingenuity exhibition).
Daniel Jones and James Bulley - talking about generating live music from patterns of weather.

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

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.
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

The idea behind this project is to run a microcontroller and its accessories (LCD's, high speed ADC or DACs, any sort of ANYTHING really) from a single AAA battery. The devices can be tiny and compact, and the MSP430 will last a bazillion years on a single AAA cell anyway. Yes, it does work after only a good 5 hour lab session!
So this is a boost converter that can take anything between 0.7v and 3v and will output a 4.8v signal (for use in 5v logic, LCDs, and backlights) and a 2.5v output for powering the actual microcontroller. It can also output 3v with a resistor change and if I need to I'll add a pot to give a wide range of values.
The board is a lot bigger than it needs to be, but this was more of a proof of concept because I had never built a power converter before. If I was to put this on a PCB I would be able to make it VERY small (smaller than a second AAA cell, wich would validate the effort!)
The Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) is one of the popular embedded serial communications widely supported by many of today’s chip manufacture and it considered as one of the fastest serial data transfer interface for the embedded system. Because of its special in/out register configuration, the SPI master device could transfer its data and at the same time it receive a data from the SPI slave device with the clock speed as high as 10 MHz. Beside its superior data transfer speed; SPI also use a very simple data transfer protocol compared to the other serial data transfer methods.

Microchip's dsPIC33FJ16 “GP,” dsPIC33FJ16 and PIC24FJ16 “MC” devices enable advanced control for cost-sensitive general-purpose and motor-control applications.
This is the replacement hardware. The core is a PIC18f4550 controlling everything with a 20Mhz oscillator to supply the PLL for the 48Mhz required to run USB should i ever get round to implementing that. The CPU runs at 8Mhz from the internal osc. There is a MAX232 to drive the serial port and some transistors to switch relays for the spindle and that is about it. the 9 pin plug floating there is just to allow me to debug the board when it is not in the machine. The screw terminals will be for the motor and the spindle encoder but the encoder is not implemented in code yet so I haven't connected it. Some fly back diodes for the relays, caps for the MAX232 charge pumps, transistor base resistors, LEDs for debugging, ICSP plug and some wire make up what is left. Not really all that much there. I will probably add another transistor and 2 resistors and a cap to this to amplify the PWM signal since the PIC gives out 5Vpk-pk and the PWM in the control box needs 0-10V in. (I know its a bit silly generating an analogue voltage from a PWM output only to use it to control another PWM drive but this way it is a direct board swap.)
Without a computer or a microcontroller, time machine: inner landscape is interactively controlled by five-fifty-five timer chips and photo resistors which advances slide show imagery and amplified sounds via analog and digital sound circuitry.

Microchip's eight-member PIC24FJ256DA microcontroller family integrates three graphics acceleration units and a display controller, along with 96 Kbytes of RAM. This integration reduces system costs and makes it practical to add advanced graphics displays for a wide range of embedded applications, by eliminating the need for external RAM and a display controller. Additional savings are achieved through the integrated peripherals for USB and capacitive touch sensing. To enable quick time to market, Microchip’s Graphics Display Design Center provides a host of resources for application designers, such as the free and easy-to-use Graphics Library and Visual Design Tool, see: www.microchip.com/get/89VU

The Secret Project Circuit Bward She Works! Yhey!
Seen here resting upon The Development Environment of Kings.
This is the first time I've attempted to make a circuit with a surface-mount microcontroller. In this case, a SOIC version of the Atmel ATTiny861. How very encouraging that it works and did not splode!
I goofed and forgot to take a picture of the underside of the assembled board, which is where all the interesting bits are. But you know what? I made two of them, so I can take a picture of the guts after assembling the other one. Or I could just remove the high-tech protective backing on this one, which - like the one on the Ad-Hoc Power Supply - is a piece of cardboard held in place with electrical tape.

Russ connected an MCP4822 dual 12-bit digital-to-analog converter (DAC) to the fine Tektronix 2213A oscilloscope. A program (sketch) on the Arduino microcontroller drives the DAC and generates the image by steering the scope's CRT beam along the lines in the drawing (vector-scan). en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_monitor

Because there were some questions, here a picture of my microcontroller hardware. I added some notes to the picture.
This is a side view of the model R/C tank I am designing on a gearbox + Tracks & wheels from Tamiya. The radio is Hitec and two receiver servo outputs feed my microcontroller-based Pulse Position Modulation to PWM converter power output to the two motors.

Just got myself a new Arduino UNO. It took me just a few minutes to install the software and load an example program to test the board. Because its based on the C language and im familiar with that its very easy to write code for it. Look forward to using it in a project soon...
As the electronics hobbyist one of knowledge that we have to be familiar with is how to make our own printed circuit board (PCB). Making our own simple single side PCB actually is not require a sophisticated technique and technology as you might think, instead most of the required materials is already available at your home.

Microcontroller, thermal printer, stainless steel. 2016
This work is designed to undermine the vital but patronizing “Harz IV” agenda of the German government in which self-employed individuals must send in records of their expenses in order to verify the necessity of support. Made of stainless steel, this unobtrusive machine is suited for the harsh environments of the streets. It generates receipts for random items, quantities, and sale amounts. Each receipt is printed on thermal paper like an actual receipt and could be sent to the authorities.

In June, the Friends of Freeman Library received a generous $1,000 donation from United Space Alliance. U.S.A.'s donation supported the purchase of at least a dozen Sparkfun Inventor's Kits, which will allow older kids and teens to learn in a series of special library programs the basics of microcontrollers and how they work. Our CreatorSpace partners have also pledged help with instruction in these programs. Many thanks to U.S.A. and CreatorSpace for their continued support of Freeman Branch Library!
