The Great Search: Current-carrying Slide Switch
For our TCA9548 QT breakout, we're going to allow switching the QT power and signal between 3 and 5V, so it could be used for level shifting. This means the switch itself will be carrying power - we're not using a separate FET-based switch. It's reasonable for us to expect about 500mA total current among all of the 'client' boards, and we have a 500mA regulator on board to manage that. However, that switch has to be spec'd for the voltages and currents we're expecting to pass through it! It's very easy to glide over contact specs for switches if you're used to signal-only usage. Let's find a vertical switch that can handle 5V and up to 500mA total.

Desk of Ladyada - Proto-buildin' Weekend
Desk of Ladyada - Proto-buildin' Weekend This weekend we put together a bunch of prototypes so that we can order PCBs! First up, the PB86 breakouts we designed a few weekends ago came, and they work great, with side-by-side stack-ability. Then, we're redesigning the microlipo charger to have a current-selector switch - a few mistakes were made but they were easy to sort out and get the board tested. Finally, the TCA9548 QT breakout board is also good to go, with a voltage selector switch and all ports working. We're designing the tester for it now and are reminded that it's always good to add test points for making testing fast and easy!

EYE on NPI: EnOcean EDK350/EDK350U Developer Kits
This week's EYE ON NPI is a self-starting go-getter, it's the EDK350/EDK350U Developer Kits from EnOcean (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/e/enocean/edk350-and-edk350u-developer-kits) - containing everything you need to get started with energy-harvesting / self-powered sensors. These kits are a great way to explore and understand the EnOcean series of solar & mechanical energy-harvesting switches and sensors. As engineers, we're often tasked with 'smartening up' existing structures: whether that's machinery, agriculture, buildings, cars, appliances, etc. The last few decades have given us ultra-cheap sensors and radios - which means we are able to gather data from a wide area and store it centrally, the Internet of Things! (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_of_things) That means just about every project and product you will work on is going to have sensors, data storage and wireless - but with great technology comes great complexity: you now have to worry about shuffling that sensor data around, and nothing eats up batteries like constantly having to wake up and transmit radio data. In fact, a lot of the really tough engineering with sensor networks is not in picking the radio or sensor but in how to keep the battery lasting as long as possible. Particularly since folks like products with small, rechargeable batteries - but they don't like having to constantly plug them in. Moreover it's really hard to let people know when something needs to be recharged - there's the problem of "well we need power to blink an LED or sound a buzzer which will drain the power even faster - but if we blink or buzz too rarely it may not be caught in time to change out the battery before it dies". Also known as the 'smoke detector issue' - Americans kind of solved this by starting a campaign to check smoke detector batteries on every daylight savings change (https://www.nfpa.org/Public-Education/Staying-safe/Safety-equipment/Smoke-alarms/Changing-clocks-and-batteries). Great for individual households with maybe 3 or 4 smoke detectors - not great if you have dozens or hundreds of light switches or soil moisture sensors. EnOcean solved this in a typically engineer-y fashion: what if, instead of having batteries which add cost, maintenance and life-cycle management...we just didn't? Instead, their devices use energy harvesting (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zJIlG-KbFzE), which means that - in theory - there is no installation or maintenance costs at all. Once installed, it will forever sip power from motion or ambient light until there's enough power for a transmission. EnOcean even has their own low power 900/868MHz radio modules with integrated 8051's that are specifically designed for quick startup, sensing, transmission and power down. The most famous is their ECO200 mechanical energy harvesting switch, (https://www.enocean.com/en/product/eco-200/) which also made it into the Philips Hue wireless lighting system (https://meethue.co/hacks/convert-hue-tap-to-a-light-switch/), a great fit since the whole system is wireless, and there's a natural inclination to associate pressing a button with changing the light settings. In addition to the classic mechanically-powered switches, there's also a series of micro-solar powered sensors, (https://www.enocean.com/en/product-category/self-powered-sensors/) good when you need to have a slow but continuous measurement of environment. Tuck these near a fluorescent light fixture and you could sip enough power to send data once every few hours or per day - no wiring or installation required. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PkynD9FOVxY) If this technology is something you want to look into integrating, you can get started with the EnOcean EDK350/EDK350U Developer Kit, (https://www.digikey.com/short/77dn99q8) a chocolate box assortment containing one of each of EnOcean's sensors and switches. You get radios, USB sticks, mechanical and solar harvesters! Available in both 900MHz for Americans, or 868MHz for Europe / Asia. And both kits are in stock right now for immediate shipment from Digi-Key! (https://www.digikey.com/short/77dn99q8) Order today and you will be energy harvesting by tomorrow afternoon.

The Great Search: Very Low Dropout 1A Schottky Diode (MBR120VL replacement)
We use lots of Schottky diodes in our products for power supply circuits. Traditionally we've used the On Semi MBR120VLSFT1G (https://www.digikey.com/short/rd25c3rt) which is 20V forward, 1A current, SOD-123 package, and a slim 340mV forward drop at 1A. You'll be shocked (or is it...Schottk'd?) to hear that it's unobtanium, with a 75 week lead time. We looked at some other parts in the MBR120 base product number family (https://www.digikey.com/short/vjr347bp) but they're also out of stock! However, we will not be deterred - let's use our Great Search Skills to find a good drop-in replacement diode at Digi-Key with matching-or-better specifications!

Desk of Ladyada - Use ANY font in EagleCAD with Pinguin
Desk of Ladyada - Use ANY font in EagleCAD with Pinguin We've been doing a ton of revisions lately and as we're re-spinning boards we had a bit of an itch to make some pretty silkscreens. Normally the way nice silks are done at adafruit is we ask PaintYourDragon to do a custom silkscreen after the PCB is laid out. This of course results in the gorgeous designs for the MacroPad and Monster M4sk...but for lil breakouts it's a ton of work to export/design/re-import the top and bottom silks. And it's also hard to tweak the design. So we asked 'drag0n to come up with some automated way to change the font from a servicable-vector-y font. A week later and Pinguin is born, a python script that will swap any font for you, automagically, and even do a pretty darn good job of keeping the size the same. Let's check it out!

EYE on NPI: ST Micro's AIS25BA 3-Axis Accelerometer
This week's EYE ON NPI has great vibes, it's ST Micro's AIS25BA 3-Axis Accelerometer (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/s/stmicroelectronics/ais25ba-3-axis-accelerometer) a unique take on the classic tripe-axis motion sensor where data is streamed out with a TDM interface rather than I2C or SPI! We've never seen this kind of sensor but the idea behind its use case is kinda cool and is a great demonstration of using sensor fusion to cancel out or extract data from two 'directions'. Usually accelerometers we've covered on NPI before are used for tilt or motion sensing, detecting if something is falling or was struck. Another good use for this common sensor is vibration detection. You need very fast sensor reading but any vibration can be detected and sensed as motion and then integrated for displacement. That's pretty much what a microphone (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microphone) does as well, right? It takes vibrations in the air, then the displacement is converted to a capacitive measurement via MEMS (https://www.digikey.com/short/tt7qnddr) or current/voltage measurement via electret (https://www.digikey.com/short/9vdczd9n). So, what if in addition to measuring the air movement with the microphone, we also got to measure the vibration of a surface with an accelerometer? Dense surfaces will be better at low frequency measurements, and the microphone element will be better at high frequency. With a little filter work, we can combine these two data streams so that we get clear audio without the motion or air noise that often adds crackling, or overwhelms the analog front end. (https://www.st.com/resource/en/flyer/fllis25ba0218_lr.pdf) ST Micro's AIS25BA 3-Axis Accelerometer (https://www.digikey.com/short/3zrr4c8b) is the automotive-qualified version of the LIS25BA (https://www.digikey.com/short/c9bt59c0) but both function basically the same so choose whichever is best for your application. In both sensors, the configuration and test is still done over I2C - setting gains, offset, self-test, etc. Then data is streamed over a TDM audio-interface so it can be quickly funneled into a DSP or microcomputer that performs the high/low-pass filtering and merging. As demo'd by an ST engineer (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bi4NenlnR-k), the sound quality is greatly improved, kinda like a reverse-noise-cancelling-headphone. Particularly as so many more devices like cars are becoming voice-controlled to allow for advanced uses, and avoid mechanical components that can wear out or get dirty, having good clean audio input (https://www.st.com/resource/en/user_manual/um2824-getting-started-with-the-stm32cube-function-pack-for-acoustic-echo-cancellation-stmicroelectronics.pdf) is key to having a UX that is great versus one that is annoying to use. There's even a driver for the I2C side of things over on GitHub to get you started quickly. (https://github.com/STMicroelectronics/ais25ba-pid.git) Best of all, STMicroelectronics' AIS25BA 3-Axis Accelerometer (https://www.digikey.com/short/3zrr4c8b) is in stock now at Digi-Key for immediate shipment! Order today and your sensors will be shipped immediately so you can be noise-cancelling like a pro by tomorrow morning.

The Great Search – Replacement SPI FRAM
We think FRAM chips are the most underrated storage chips engineers can use - they're excellent for datalogging! They also solve the biggest frustration when people try to stream data to EEPROM, SD card or Flash memory: erase times for blocks can stretch to hundreds of milliseconds, and you often need to write a whole block at a time. SRAM is nice but will erase itself when power is lost. If you need to burst-write data to a reliable storage medium that is OK with having power cut - FRAM is great. We have a few FRAM breakouts (https://www.adafruit.com/?q=fram&sort=BestMatch) but we've found some chips are discontinued/obsolete (https://www.digikey.com/short/wc94tmd2). Let's see what options we have for replacements - a good lesson in how to read and understand PCNs.

EZ Link Bluefruit with ESP32 Arduino Upload Test
we're trying to revive the old EZ-Link Bluefruit design from many years ago - originally done with a CSR chipset that became very hard for us to get. ESP32 is a lot easier and the original chip has BT classic support - required for BT SPP which is what we're using. This test uses the Arduino IDE, we are uploading code from the IDE 'transparently' to the COM port which the operating system makes when you pair to a BT SPP profile device. Since we pass the baud rate and control lines, we're able to auto-reset and transmit data as if it were connected with a USB cable! here, we're uploading a NeoPixel test sketch and it seems to be working Visit the Adafruit shop online - http://www.adafruit.com ----------------------------------------- LIVE CHAT IS HERE! http://adafru.it/discord Adafruit on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adafruit Subscribe to Adafruit on YouTube: http://adafru.it/subscribe New tutorials on the Adafruit Learning System: http://learn.adafruit.com/ -----------------------------------------

CircuitPython WiFi support on the Raspberry Pi Pico W - part deux
Last time we checked in on the PicoW CircuitPy progress, we saw the onboard LED blinking - basically proving that the SPI transport and firmware upload was working. This round, we're starting to see the beginnings of integration support, with the ability to read the MAC address, scan for accessible SSIDs, and connect to get an IP address! there's still a lot more to do, like DNS support, LWIP integration and a TLS stack, so it's great to see progress 🥧🐮 Visit the Adafruit shop online - http://www.adafruit.com ----------------------------------------- LIVE CHAT IS HERE! http://adafru.it/discord Adafruit on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adafruit Subscribe to Adafruit on YouTube: http://adafru.it/subscribe New tutorials on the Adafruit Learning System: http://learn.adafruit.com/ -----------------------------------------

Desk of Ladyada - Samples Sunday & Replacement SPI FRAM
We got a whole mess of interesting mechanical samples - from fancy-pants breadboards to encoders and joysticks. We're also doing a lil bit of refactoring of hardware designs, since it was time to re-order 1.8" TFT breakout PCBs we decided to give up a glow-up to add an EYESPI port.
