I study electronics on third year, and I will probably be on the third year also next year, so it’s best time to finally get some interest into my studies. I find microcontrollers are very powerful tool to know, so I’m playing a little bit with Microchip PIC’s with PICKit2. I’m curious to see what these little chips can do :)

DORKBOTPDX November 1st Workshop: Advanced Microcontroller Audio

The MPLAB C Compiler for PIC32 is a full-featured ANSI compliant C compiler for Microchip's PIC32 family of 32-bit microcontrollers. A free evaluation is available by downloading the Evaluation Edition. It has no code size limit and provides complete functionality for 60 days. The compiler is completely usable after 60 days other than certain optimization levels are disabled. The compiler is fully compatible with Microchip's MPLAB IDE and popular third party IDEs. For more information, please visit: www.microchip.com/c32

Sanguino is an open source Arduino-compatible microcontroller board that is based on the Arduino, and inspired by the Boarduino form-factor. It uses the atmega644P chip which has 4x the memory, ram and 12 more GPIO pins than the Arduino's atmega168.

 

More info: make.sanguino.cc/1.0

 

Microchip's MRF89XA transceiver has extremely low receive current of 3 mA for longer battery life in 868, 915 and 950 MHz Sub-GHz wireless networks. For additional information, please visit Microchip’s online Wireless Design Center at www.microchip.com/get/D2C7.

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

Simple prototyping boards for AVR microcontrollers. This one is designed for the Atmel ATtiny2313, and you can read more about it here. It's a complement to our earlier ATmegaxx8 board.

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.

Some progress : I need more power !

Les Belles Noiseuses vs. the Tower of Boobs

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

Dorkbot Bristol, December 2008: The camera and flash are triggered by an Arduino at just the right moment to capture the splash.

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.

 

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.

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)

www.reactable.com/

 

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

Dabbling with AVRs (microcontrollers) and tri-color (RGB) LEDs. Something new is slowly coming to together...what can it be? World domination....or just some pretty lights...we will have to wait and see. :o)

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.

DORKBOTPDX November 1st Workshop: Advanced Microcontroller Audio

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.

Microchip Technology Inc., a leading provider of microcontroller, analog and Flash-IP solutions, today announced the new SST11CP15 RF power amplifier (amp) for 5 GHz IEE 802.11a/n WLAN embedded applications. The device operates on the 4.9 to 5.9 GHz band, and offers a wide operating voltage of 3.3V to 5V. The SST11CP15 features a high linear output power of 18 dBm at 2.5 percent EVM, using 802.11a OFDM 54 Mbps at 3.3V, and 20 dBm at 5.0V, and offers an output power of 23 dBm at mask compliance of 6 Mbps, at 3.3V. The device is offered in a compact, 2 mm x 2 mm x .55 mm, 12-pin QFN package. It is ideal for 5 GHz WLAN applications where small size and high-efficiency operation are required, such as in wireless multimedia and MIMO applications for broadband gateway and consumer-electronics equipment.
