The Desk of Ladyada - Feather M4 Redux: Pink PCB Adalogger + STEMMA QT update

It is starting to get a bit chilly out, with beautiful fall weather. We've even switched from iced to hot coffees! We decided this week to take a look again at our favvy Feather, the M4 Express. It's a good dev board, but there's improvements we can make given the years of experience we've had with designing Feathers. First up we swapped the Micro USB to USB C. We bumped the 2MB flash to 8MB, and added a STEMMA QT plug at the end. We also put a MicroSD card slot on the bottom, like our STM32 Feather. Finally, we made a few low-power-friendly improvements! We'll take a tour at the design in this stream The Great Search - 32 KHz RTC Crystals https://www.digikey.com/short/38nr3bdr We did an earlier Great Search on oscillators, but this week we're specifically looking at 32kHz 'real time clock/counter' crystals. These are often used in microcontrollers as input to a PLL to generate a higher frequency internal clock that is more precise than an RC oscillator. Even tho these are not 'semiconductors' they've been quite hard to source! Let's look at what options we've got. #deskofladyada #adafruit #thegreatsesarch 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/ -----------------------------------------

Deep Dive w/Scott: CircuitPython on Raspberry Pi 4

Join Scott as he shows all of the CircuitPython on Raspberry Pi 4 progress! After, we dive deep into enabling caches to speed things up. Questions are welcome. Next week is on Friday. Support Adafruit, and by extension me, by purchasing hardware from https://adafruit.com Chat with me and a lot of others on the Adafruit Discord at https://adafru.it/discord. Deep Dive happens every week. Normally Fridays at 2pm Pacific but occasionally shifted to Thursday at 2pm.

I was curious how well they would behave as a mass storage drive since they're much closer to being a full fledged pc than other cp devices. 1:57:50 Doesn’t look like it worked - ( getting the rainbow test pattern ) 1:59:06 try just the instruction cache? 2:01:40 obviously we have some more optimizations to do, including the TLB 2:02:20 How is the storage etc working now? do you have an emmc model and use the usbboot thing to copy it over? Or? 2:02:40 ​Is it still recommended for beginners to start with CircuitPython6? I've been finding some of the sensor examples provided don't work with CircuitPython7, as the calls/functions/etc have changed. 2:03:40 So big question...if I submit a PR that allows booty.py as code.py alternative if in Pirate language mode, will it be accepted? 2:04:10 eMMC and SDcard would behave the same, nothing to do there technically 2:05:00 Related question, is it possible for the community to offer pull requests to update those examples? Would that be best done on the particular sensors Github page? Which then would filter to learn.ada 2:05:59 Sooo running CP from a MultiGB SD Card will just work on the RPI? 2:06:50 Wrap-up - remember the US daylight time zone change happening soon - still at 2PM local Follow along at https://github.com/tannewt/circuitpython/tree/rpi 2:09:30 pet the cat 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/ -----------------------------------------

EYE ON NPI - ST VL53L5CX Time-of-Flight Ranging Sensor

This weeks' EYE ON NPI is right on time, it's the ST VL53L5CX Time-of-Flight Ranging Sensor, (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/s/stmicroelectronics/vl53l5cx-time-of-flight-ranging-sensor) the latest in a long line of successful and popular ToF ranging sensors. These sensors have gone through many revisions, and each version has improved on the prior one. Starting with the VL6180X (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/stmicroelectronics/VL6180XV0NR-1/4854909?s=N4IgTCBcDaIGoBkBsBGAHABgBogLoF8g), the VL53L0X (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/stmicroelectronics/VL53L0CXV0DH-1/6023691?s=N4IgTCBcDaIG4BsCsBmBAGAxgDxAXQF8g) and VL53L1X (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/stmicroelectronics/VL53L1CXV0FY-1/8258055?s=N4IgTCBcDaIGoBkCsBmBBGAwgDRAXQF8g), these sensors increase the range, speed, accuracy with each generation. Each sensor works the same way: they have a tiny near-IR laser that emits light and is bounced off nearby objects to determine the distance. The sensor has extra-ordinary time sensing, so it can measure the ‘time of flight’ between the photon emitted by the laser, and when it arrives bounced back. Thus, they are called “Time of Flight / ToF” sensors and the series of boards are called ST FlightSense (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/filter/optical-sensors-distance-measuring/542?s=N4IgjCBcoLQCxVAYygMwIYBsDOBTANCAG4B2aWehA9lANohxwDsATBALqEAOALlCCAC%2BwoA). STMicroelectronics' VL53L5CX is a state of the art, time-of-flight (ToF), laser-ranging sensor enhancing the ST FlightSense product family. Housed in a miniature reflowable package, it integrates a single-photon avalanche diode (SPAD) array, physical infrared filters, and diffractive optical elements (DOE) to achieve the best-ranging performance in various ambient lighting conditions with a range of cover glass materials. The use of a DOE above the vertical cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) allows a square FoV to be projected onto the scene. The reflection of this light is focused by the receiver lens onto a SPAD array. Unlike conventional IR sensors, the VL53L5CX uses ST's latest generation, direct ToF technology, which allows absolute distance measurement whatever the target color and reflectance. It provides accurate ranging up to 400 cm and can work at fast speeds (60 Hz), which makes it the fastest, multizone, miniature ToF sensor currently on the market...the VL53L5CX is able to detect different objects within the FoV with a distance information range up to 60 cm. The Histogram also provides immunity to cover glass crosstalk beyond 60 cm. Multizone distance measurements are possible up to 8x8 zones with a wide 61° diagonal FoV that can be reduced by software. The big updates in the L5 version is a new diffraction element which allows the SPAD to measure an 8x8 zone of distance measurements, which makes it more like a spatial LIDAR than a point-LIDAR. It's not super-fast, but you can use it for gesture recognition and possibly simple robotics-navigation. The price is not much different than before, and you still get 4 meter range. Another nice thing about this sensor is ST is starting to release 'platform agnostic' sensor drivers, including an 'ultra lite driver' for this chip that is easy to port to other platforms (https://www.st.com/en/imaging-and-photonics-solutions/vl53l5cx.html#tools-software) without heavy IDE/toolchain/chipset dependencies. The ST VL53L5CX is in stock right now for immediate shipment from Digi-Key! (https://www.digikey.com/short/hwb7rd0m) There's also eval/dev boards if you want to get started instantly. Order today and you can add a micro-LiDAR to your project or product by tomorrow afternoon. See on digikey.com at https://www.digikey.com/short/hwb7rd0m

Autofocus mode working on OV5640 camera module in CircuitPython

Last week when we got some OV5640 camera samples we noticed these modules have a built in voice coil motor for focusing. How neat! We followed the app guide to load in the autofocus firmware over I2C, and then over I2C you can request the camera to try and autofocus. It works very well, you can even hear the little click when it changes focus. We had to use a breakout board of our own design in order to power the motor coil externally. #adafruit #camera #python 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 - Camera Breakout + Autofocusing Firmware

Last week we took a look at an OV5640 camera sample that had a voice-coil auto focus motor inside. At the time we didn't get it working, turns out the breakout we were using had some shorted connection to the VM pins. We happened to have a camera breakout PCB we're working on so we put one together and found that with a little wiring we could follow the app note to load a firmware file through I2C and then get I2C working. Now we can redesign our camera breakout to support every camera module type we've seen. The Great Search - Small Heatsink for Camera module https://www.digikey.com/short/bzmz0pn0 Our OV5640 camera is working great but we notice it does heat up quite a bit. We want to add a little heatsink option to our breakout so that the camera can be cooled off a little while it's running. Digi-Key stocks hundreds of thousands of different heat sinks, lets see what we can find that is small enough to fit. #deskofladyada #thegreatsearch #adafruit 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/ -----------------------------------------

EYE ON NPI - C&K's KLS Series Illuminated Pushbuttons

This week's EYE ON NPI video is very illuminating! It's the C&K KLS Series Illuminated Pushbutton series. (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/c/ck-components/kls-series-illuminated-pushbutton) These very handsome buttons are clicky, glowy and come in a few different configurations depending on customer needs. The switches come in either SPDT or DPDT type, both momentary and latching on/off type, and with concave, flat or large flat clear tops. All of the ones available for purchase contain both red and green LEDs, so the front can be lit red, yellow or green. Note that there are 3 parallel LED inside, so you need 60mA per LED segment, (https://learn.adafruit.com/all-about-leds) but the front does illuminate nice and evenly which is something cheaper buttons struggle with. The tops are also easily removable, so you can put a label underneath, and they're nice crystal clear, so you'll get nice even illumination with an easy-to-clean cover. These are really high quality buttons with an excellent clicky feel and a durable build, they're perfect for A/V or industrial equipment where a clean user interface is important. All of the C&K KLS Series Illuminated Pushbuttons (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/c/ck-components/kls-series-illuminated-pushbutton) are in stock now at Digi-Key for immediate purchase and shipment. Order today (https://www.digikey.com/short/z3d42v8m) and you can be laying out your dream control-panel by tomorrow afternoon!

Desk of Ladyada - OV5640 Camera module testing

Thanks to jeplers intrepid and unyielding efforts, we now have OV5640 camera module support in CircuitPython. This is a snazzy 5 MPixel camera module which can do JPEG encoding on-chip and auto levels. It's a rather nice camera and given you can always use it at lower res like 320x240, we think this is our pick. We got a few samples from the camera manufacturer and interestingly enough, we got one version with a kinda fisheye lens (that works fine) and one version with a pinhole lens and a SECRET! The Great Search - Triple Nickles! (555 Timers) https://www.digikey.com/short/vr1c30pn We just saw Colin's great video on 555 timers, who doesn't love these classic chips? You can still get them, heck they are one of the few things you CAN get! So if you want to make a one-shot timer or a mini synth, check out Digi-Key for all your 555 timer needs. They've also greatly improved in performance since the 70s, with wider voltage range, lower quiescent current, and higher frequency outputs. #deskofladyada #thegreatsearch #adafruit 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/ -----------------------------------------

EYE ON NPI - Raltron Crystal Resonators Engineering Design Kit

Time flies (or fugit irreparabile tempus as the cool Hellenistic teens might say) when you're enjoying this EYE ON NPI - this week we're featuring the Raltron Crystal Resonators Engineering Design Kit (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/r/raltron/crystal-resonators-engineering-design-kit), a kit of 66 different crystal oscillators in various packages, frequencies and load capacitances. Crystals! (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal) They're so cool sounding, who doesn't love sparkly rocks? While we usually associate the word with gems, bedazzling, and new-age healing, crystals made of piezo-electric material (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_oscillator) are great for generating precise sinusoids of a desired frequency. We need these to keep our electronics ticking away at the right frequency. And, somewhat annoyingly, each chip seems to require a totally different frequency. So you end up getting a lot of different crystals in your proto-typing bin. For example, 'timing' crystals tend to be 32.768 KHz, because if you have a 15 bit counter that keeps track of each oscillation, you'll count out one second every overflow. These crystals are super common, used in micro's for low-power or PLL-syncing, also in real-time-clocks that need to run on small coin cell batteries for years. So, 32KHz is maybe the most common value used that we've seen - this kit gives you many pages of them with different sizes. For microcontrollers, especially ones with USB, you'll want 12 or 24 MHz (USB peripherals tend to run on 12MHz or some multiple). Other chips often need 8MHz, 16MHz, 20MHz, 24 MHz or 32MHz. Then, sometimes you get unusual frequency requirements - like for RFID/NFC that uses 13.56 MHz RF frequencies, you'll need 27.12 MHz crystal (it's 2x the RF frequency, not surprisingly!) So this crystal oscillator kit (https://www.digikey.com/short/n5pvt3f9) is quite handy with 5 pieces of each value. Each crystal cut tape strip is in a pocket, looks like a holder for business cards or maybe baseball cards. The pocket is clear, so behind it is the identification information - what the part number is, the frequency, stability, tolerance, load capacitance, ESR, temperature and size. There's also a short URL and QR code for the datasheet from Raltron (big ups to them for getting their own URL shortener rather than leaning on a third party). Of course when you're ready to purchase for production, each part is stocked on Digi-Key as well (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/r/raltron/crystal-resonators-engineering-design-kit) I love this kit for having so many values and options and sizes. Every workshop and lab should have one, so whenever you're designing a new chip, you can verify the crystal size and specifications immediately. Goes great with a Digi-Key resistor kit (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/filter/resistor-kits/653) or capacitor kit (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/filter/capacitor-kits/651). These Raltron Crystal Resonators Engineering Design Kit (https://www.digikey.com/short/n5pvt3f9) books are in stock now for immediate shipment from Digi-Key, order today and you can be oscillating by tomorrow morning!
