Looking at a lot of keyboard kits, we noticed that many use a diode key-matrix to connect lots of keys without a ghosting effect. We should probably source long tape strips of 1N4148s for folks making keyboards and key matrices! Let's talk about 1N4148s in two packages - DO-35 (classic glass) and SOD-123 as seen on a keyboard we purchased.

"Bakery" - Machine Learning on the Edge with Adafruit & Microsoft Lobe Machine learning is a transformative tool that’s redefining how we build software—but up until now, it was only accessible to a small group of experts. At Adafruit, we think machine learning should be accessible to everyone, that’s why Adafruit partnered with Microsoft and their Lobe platform for an easy to use machine learning kit using the Adafruit Braincraft hardware for Raspberry Po, to bring your machine learning ideas to life. This is one of the demos we made for the Microsoft Build keynote with the Kevin Scott, CTO of Microsoft.

This week's EYE ON NPI will go the distance to help you with your object sensing needs - its the Omron B5W-DB Long-Distance Object Detection Sensor (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/o/omron/b5w-db-long-distance-object-detection-sensor). This sensor builds on decades of infrared-breakbeam sensing technology, so while it's not a radically new idea, it is a solid and trustworthy sensor with great quality. Omron’s B5W-DB optical sensor improves on existing technology, and can detect objects over a half meter away. The B5W-DB offers an increased sensing distance of up to 800 mm depending on the object being detected. The B5W sensor series is a key component for object detection applications and touchless switches. This sensor operates the same as the previous iterations of the B5W object detection sensors by detecting a wide range of objects, no matter the color, reflectiveness, or transparency. Features Increased range for object detection: Expanded range of target applications Small package can be installed in tight spaces without sacrificing internal real estate Material immunity: Detects a wide range of objects including white, black, transparent, and reflective Note that this isn't a distance sensor, it won't tell you how far away something is - it will just tell you when something is in front of the sensor. This sensor has a surprisingly good distance rating of about 55 to 80 cm maximum. When something is in the way of the sensing beam, the output pin is driven low. You can connect the drive to an LED, alarm, solenoid driver, interlock, etc. VCC power is 12V, which isn't surprising because the LED is going to be pretty strong - you could probably get away with a lower 9V if you don't need the full distance rating. The sensor is really good looking too, with a nice snapped-together body. It's not waterproof but it looks well protected against most indoor environmental damage. In particular, we like the mounting flanges with both lateral and vertical mounting holes! A cable socket on board makes for easy connection to your robotic project, use a ready-to-go cable harness part number EE-5002 (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/omron-electronics-inc-emc-div/EE-5002-1M/8124128?s=N4IgTCBcDaIKJwLQFYAMqIF0C%2BQ) or you can DIY a custom-crimped cable using the JST GHR-03 plug (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/jst-sales-america-inc/GHR-03V-S/807815?s=N4IgTCBcDaIOIAkBKBaADAZgGooMogF0BfIA) A great looking sensor, which does one thing and does it well. With these sorts of sensors, in automation, you need ultra-reliability and Omron's a trustworthy brand that will give you a sensor that is repeatable and reliable. The Omron B5W-DB1452-1 is in stock right now at Digi-Key for immediate shipment - order today and you'll be detecting things around your workbench by tomorrow!

Adafruit has recently spent time adding support for the new Adafruit FunHouse WiFi Home Automation Development board to Wippersnapper, our no-code interface for Adafruit IO. We wanted to show off how easy it is to build an Adafruit IO dashboard using your Wippersnapper device's components. It takes a little over a minute and with no code! What is Wippersnapper? Wippersnapper is a no-code IoT interface for Adafruit.IO – it lets you turn any WiFi-capable board into an IoT device without any programming. Simply select what devices are connected to which pins on the hardware and it will auto-configure the firmware and even create an IO feed for visualization. Wippersnapper is not out yet but will be soon.

An older project of ours, the STEMMA Friend, has been reborn as an RP2040 board, we'll show off some of the projects we got working with it over the weekend, improvements to the Arduino API for faster SPI and why framebuffering is awesome if you hrave the RAM. We also got an Arduino Nano RP2040 Connect working thanks to BlitzCity's PR - with WiFi too! Mr Ladyada wants a Tube Trinkey, so I picked up some VFD 7 segments that maybe we'll try to trinkify The Great Search - LEMO 'aviator' connectors https://www.digikey.com/short/qz1h1pbr If you want really amazing push-pull connectors, nothing beats LEMO connectors. These are sometimes called 'aviation' connectors and they're luxurious, durable, and vibration proof. Did you know you can buy LEMO on Digi-Key?

The lil STEMMA Friend board we're working on this weekend could also be a cute lil UART/Serial monitor tool. the RP2040 has a fast enough GPIO peripheral that we can automatically detect baud rates and then turn on the UART peripheral to read data via an IRQ into a buffer. To get the nice scrolling effect (with a header at the top that doesn't scroll!) we have to use a framebuffer - thankfully the RP2040 also has enough RAM to buffer a full 240*240 pixels. we read the serial data and draw to the framebuffer in the IRQ and draw to the TFT itself in the main loop. We're testing it here with a 9600 baud GPS but it also works with a Raspberry pi. Maybe VT10x color coding is next? #adafruit #stemma #uart 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/ -----------------------------------------

We re-spun our STEMMA Friend design from a SAMD21 to an RP2040 to take advantage of the more-powerful chip, to make it CircuitPython-friendlier and faster at doing stuff like I2C sniffing. While porting over the Arduino code (which pretty much works just fine) we noticed the display is a little sluggish due to SPI data being sent over one byte at a time with a delay. So we're adding a bulk-transfer SPI function to the Philhower RP2040 core to take advantage of the pico-sdk's buffered writes - its now 10x faster! #adafruit #rp2040 #pico 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/ -----------------------------------------

Liz submitted a PR to add support for the Nano RP2040 to CircuitPython and we thought to try it out! So far so good, the digital pins all toggle right and we were able to see the built in LSM6DSOX chip on the I2C port. We have a driver for this IMU so hey, why not wire up a quick demo? We have an external OLED wired up on the same I2C bus, reading acceleration/gyro data and displaying it just fine.

Glider is a new app we're working on that will allow folks to program a CircuitPython board anywhere, with a mobile device like a phone or tablet (it will also work on desktops, but we sorta recommend USB ports if you have em) Glider sends and receives files over BLE using a simple protocol we've developed that is simpler and easier to implement than BLE's object-transfer-protocol. One of the nifty things about interpreted languages is that we can run new code by sending text files, no compilers needed - so this should work very nicely. Right now we're just doing protocol testing, here's us sending and receiving files. BLE can be very fast, thanks to some tricks we've learned from when we developed our Bluefruit Connect & Circuit Playground apps.

This week's EYE ON NPI is from long-time Maker-buddies FTDI Chip (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/f/ftdi/ft233hpq-usb-bridge): The FT233HP (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/ftdi-future-technology-devices-international-ltd/FT232HPQ-REEL/13981010) and FT232HP (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/ftdi-future-technology-devices-international-ltd/FT233HPQ-TRAY/13981013) builds on decades of work FTDI (https://www.digikey.com/en/supplier-centers/future-technology-devices-intl) have pioneered in making excellent quality USB controller ICs. This chip has taken the successful FT232H (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/ftdi-future-technology-devices-international-ltd/FT232HQ-REEL/2614626) that we're very fond of and added first-class USB Type C support with PD3.0 control. (https://www.usb.org/usb-charger-pd) Now in case you haven't tried them out yet, we make some nice FT232H breakouts here at Adafruit (https://www.adafruit.com/product/2264). This chip from FTDI is similar to their USB to serial converter chips (https://www.adafruit.com/product/284) but adds a 'multi-protocol synchronous serial engine' which allows it to speak many common protocols like SPI, I2C, serial UART, JTAG, and more! There's even a handful of digital GPIO pins that you can read and write to do things like flash LEDs, read switches or buttons, and more. The FT232H breakout is like adding a little swiss army knife for serial protocols to your computer! We recently even gave this chip a bit of a refresh by adding a Stemma QT port, an I2C mode switch, and a USB C port. However, that USB C port doesn't do anything fancy with USB C - it just has the bare-minimum resistors to let the upstream port know to give it 5V and use classic USB D+ and D- lines The FT232HP, on the other hand, is a full new version of the chip with individual CC1/CC2 pins that are used to communicate with the upstream port to tell it what voltage level and current level desired. With PD, we can request up to 20V on the power pins (https://www.usb.org/usb-charger-pd) - and it can do this fully automagically by configuring an external EEPROM chip that is wired up on a PCB. You can program the EEPROM as many times as you like, using the FTDI Prog tool or via a command line tool (https://www.ftdichip.com/Support/Documents/AppNotes/AN_551_FT4232HP_FT2232HP_FT232HP_Configuration_Guide.pdf) Once configured you can also use GPIO pins to adjust the PD settings, or even use a built in I2C peripheral engine that can be configured by a separate microcontroller. Besides the fancy new USB C power delivery control - the FT232HP and FT233HP also of course have the GPIO-control goodies we love about this series. The MPSSE peripheral set can mimic a wide variety of popular and useful protocols such UART RS232, RS422, RS485, 8-bit parallel, JTAG, SPI and I2C controllers. We've got Adafruit Blinka support for MPSSE (https://learn.adafruit.com/circuitpython-on-any-computer-with-ft232h) and while we haven't tested it with the FT232HP just yet, we're pretty sure it is going to be largely compatible (besides perhaps having a different USB PID). If you're making a product that needs USB C PD, and maybe some GPIO control over USB - this chip could really do a great job at saving you months of development time. Particularly if you can use the MPSSE control software on a computer to avoid any firmware writing at all! Or, if you do have a microcontroller, you could get rid of half your power supply by dropping a DC jack input and going with a smart USB adapter with PD source control. The FT233HP has more pins than the '232HP and adds a USB Sink PD port as well as 8 more GPIO pins. You can sign up to be notified when the FT233HP (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/ftdi-future-technology-devices-international-ltd/FT232HPQ-REEL/13981010) and FT232HP (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/ftdi-future-technology-devices-international-ltd/FT233HPQ-TRAY/13981013) arrive in stock at Digi-key today.
