It's a Keeb-ful sunday at the Desk of Ladyada - we launched the NeoKey breakout and dual key FeatherWing. But what about folks who want MORE KEEB? We chatted last weekend about making some sort of macro-pad or configurable keyboard, ideally with snap apart bits. Today we spent some time making the custom footprint that would let me easily tile Kailh-socket-plus-NeoPixel objects. There was some concern about how to handle snapping from various sides till an 'a-ha!' moment. Also, we're going to mint our first “NFT” (we are not), come by to see what it's gonna be.

https://adafruit.com/neopixel What's better for your project than rings, strips, boards and sticks of pulsing, colorful miniature LEDs? We can't think of much else - and that's why we carry a complete line of the Adafruit original NeoPixels. These popular products are chainable from one to the next so you can power and program a long line of NeoPixels together to form an endless (or almost endless) string of 5050 LEDs. Plus, with our NeoPixel Uberguide, wonderfully written NeoPixel library for Arduino and our diverse range of Learn System projects, its never been easier to both find a project and program it to glow or spin or flash as quickly, slowly, and vibrantly as you want. #adafruit #neopixel #neopixels 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/ -----------------------------------------

In the video I answer questions folks have, discuss GitHub Actions, discuss the new project bundles, talk about BLE file transfer progress. Next week will be on Friday. I’m sponsored by Adafruit to work on CircuitPython. Support them, and by extension me, by purchasing hardware from https://adafruit.com Chat with me and 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. Typically goes for two hours or more. Questions are welcome.

This week's EYE ON NPI has frickin' ceramics with frickin' lasers on its head - it's a Wurth Elektronik Vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) infrared laser emitter (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/w/wurth-electronics/wl-vcsl-vertical-cavity-surface-laser) . These pick-and-placeable components look a little like large LEDs, and they sort-of are. Except unlike LEDs, the light wavelength is very narrow band wavelength AND it is 'coherent' light (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coherence_(physics)) which means that the emitted waves of light are all in sync. ----------------------------------------- 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/ -----------------------------------------

Ooh we're fabbing QT Py RP2040 https://www.adafruit.com/product/4900 as fast as possible, folks love these adorable boards. With an RP2040 chip plus 8MB flash plus QT connector plus NeoPixel and two buttons...what is not to love? We want to get these tested as fast as possible, so we're using the Teensy 3.6 as a mass storage host, it 'drag's the UF2 over to the drive which then performs the self test. Voila, 2 seconds later we have the Neo glowin' and the board is ready to ship out. #adafruit #teensy #rp2040 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 drunk on Trinkey's here - we tested our four pending designs: slide trinkey, neokey trinkey, rotary trinkey and prox/light trinkey. All working well, we made Arduino and CircuitPython definitions for all four, and wrote a little example code. We also got a funky rotary encoder sample, a Kano Motion Sensor unboxing/teardown and a preview of BUNDLE FLY - the new CircuitPython library manager built into the adafruit learning system! We also started thinking about a Trinkey for connecting any I2C sensor, maybe a QT Trinkey...which we're going a slightly different direction with. The Great Search - Nylon PCB Spacers https://www.digikey.com/short/3vwj40b0 For our new QT Trinkey design we want to have QT sensors snap on with little plastic standoffs that have nubbins in them. What are these called? What sort of types are available and how do you buy them on Digi-Key? We'll go on a quest to get the perfect standoffs for our modular system!

Today we celebrate one year of deep dives, answer questions, discuss the BLE file transfer code and ladyada drops by to show her latest designs. Visit the Adafruit shop online - http://www.adafruit.com I’m sponsored by Adafruit to work on CircuitPython. Support them, and by extension me, by purchasing hardware from https://adafruit.com Chat with me and 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. Typically goes for two hours or more. Questions are welcome.

Rotary encoders are fun but a real pain to implement, especially if you don't have a real time OS. This seesaw-powered board give you a rotary encoder with I2C interface, the lil Cortex M0 is cheap and powerful enough to handle the gray code toggle counting, and then pass back the value to the I2C controller whenever requested. You can chain a bunch together on one bus for lotsa twisting fun. We're going to add a NeoPixel and then fabricate!
