EYE ON NPI - One-Touch FFC/FPC Easy-On Connectors

See this product on Digi-Key at https://www.digikey.com/short/rn8rw873 This week's EYE ON NPI is keeping things easy, with an innovative new approach to flex connectors: introducing the One-Touch series of push-button FPC connectors from Molex! (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/m/molex/one-touch-ffc-fpc-easy-on-connectors) Molex's connectors have a visible release button that allows for easy release operation. An innovation that will keep assembly and maintenance of flex connectors safe and easy. We use flex cables a lot in our electronic design. (https://www.adafruit.com/?q=fpc&sort=BestMatch) They are inexpensive, slim, durable, and easy to use. The connectors are likewise, inexpensive and un-intrusive. If you want to pass 20 to 50 (ish) contacts from one place to another, an FPC is going to be the way to go, no crimping, no housings, all pick & place friendly. Nearly all of our displays use flex connectors on em, which means the boards we have on the other side have an FPC connector. We tend to use either 'push/pull' connectors, these tend to have top-contacts. (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/molex/0541324062/24047840) Or we use flip-top connectors, these tend to have the contacts on the bottom. (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/molex/0512964094/3044821) These work great... almost all of the time. But once in a while, the little ears on the side of the connector come loose. Or sometimes they break off! And if the little insert breaks at one of the small hinge pieces, the whole connector needs to be replaced. And these connectors are really annoying to rework. Sometimes we just scrap the whole board because its so difficult to repair. That's why we really liked the look of the One-Touch FPC connectors from Molex (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/m/molex/one-touch-ffc-fpc-easy-on-connectors) when we saw them pop up on the Digi-Key new products page (https://www.digikey.com/en/new-products). No yanking, twisting or pulling. They work just like other FPC connectors you're used to, with similar footprints and both right-angle (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/molex/2004850440/13588615) and vertical style available. (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/molex/2004850540/13588607) FPC's can be inserted and will auto-lock in place. To remove, press on the button and remove the FPC. They are rated for 20 insertion and removal cycles, which should let the board make it through quite a few maintenance/rework/repair cycles! The Molex One-Touch FPC connectors are available in a few of the most popular sizes from 10 to 40 pins, in 0.5mm pitch (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/m/molex/one-touch-ffc-fpc-easy-on-connectors) and will make a very nice upgrade for your next product design where you've seen a history of broken or damaged FPC connectors. In stock at Digi-Key right now, you can order samples of your desired One Touch connectors tonight (https://www.digikey.com/short/rn8rw873) and receive them tomorrow!

EYE on NPI – Analog Devices AD5413 Digital-to-Analog Converter

We're living in a digital world, but eventually, every engineering project has to get down to the analog level. This week's EYE ON NPI is the Analog Devices AD5413 (https://www.digikey.com/short/pbqzchnr) is a 'swiss-army DAC' - a digital to analog converter that has a lot of extras to make it very easy for engineers who like to deal with bits and software, not analog components. Especially for those that need reliability and accountability in their electronic components! Usage is pretty simple, the protocol is a classic SPI transmission. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serial_Peripheral_Interface) 32 bits form one transmission, with one start bit, 2 address bits, 5 register bits, 16 data bits and 8 CRC bits. The two address bits are a little like I2C, even though this is SPI - you can have four AD5413's on one SPI bus with the same CS pin. A little uncommon, but maybe useful in low-pin-count or chained connections. The 5 registers let you set the voltage or current output, modes like single-ended or split-supply, check diagnostics and chip ID. Slew-rate management and overshoot compensation is all configurable. There's even a die temperature monitor! Compare this to most basic DAC chips where you only 'write' to the DAC, there's no registers or read-back for status. With 14-bit voltage or current output, it's got high resolution and multi-project usage. It's designed specifically for industrial uses, (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/a/analog-devices/ad5413-digital-to-analog-converter) but we think it could also come in handy for analog electronics situations where you have biassing needs that require a split supply. Sure you could use a 0-3.3V DAC and then do a bunch of analog op-amp circuitry to get the range you want, but why add that complexity to your life? You'd have to deal with offset voltages and op-amp specifications when the AD5413 chip does it all! Reading through the datasheet, (https://www.analog.com/en/products/ad5413.html) it's clear ADI really thought about everything that could go wrong in the field. The whole product is designed from bottom up to make reliability and error reporting easy to manage. For many products, the high integration may make it the only chip that is required for the analog-front-end. That leaves you, the engineer, with more time to work on firmware, and less time re-spinning boards and spec'ing feedback paths and compensation capacitors. For a rock-solid industrial DAC with wide voltage range, voltage and current output, and more fault-management than the US Geological Survey (https://www.usgs.gov/), pick up an Analog Devices AD5413 (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/analog-devices-inc./AD5413BCPZ/13146536) - it's an all-in-one solution for industrial/automation needs with excellent documentation and an eval board you can buy right now. (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/analog-devices-inc./EVAL-AD5413SDZ/12697942). Order the AD5413 today (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/analog-devices-inc./AD5413BCPZ/13146536) for immediate shipping, and you can have it in hand tomorrow for integration into your next industrial design!

Desk of Ladyada - It's a Keyswitch Cornucopia plus Stemma Sunday

The Great Search - Resistive touch screen driver replacement for STMPE610/STMPE811 https://www.digikey.com/short/7mt7b04f A week or two ago we showed off some mechanical keyboard ideas we had. Well, prototypes came a few days ago and we quickly threw together prototypes for the individual MX/Kailh breakout and a dual-key FeatherWing. The reverse-mount NeoPixel works with a simple fix, too. We also threw togehter a DVI breakout for use with RP2040 video demos and tested it. ForStemma Sunday, the TCA4307 is a hot-swapping I2C adapter, helpful to avoid bus glitching for hot-plug I2C buses! We also have a SNEAK PEEK world premier of a new not-public-yet Digi-Key service launch. Like many great parts, our go-to resistive touch controller chip, the STMPE family, has finally gone completely EOL - we are no longer able to source this part. Time to find a replacement!

Deep Dive w/Scott: Flash and Clocks oh my!

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. Next week is on Friday. If you are outside the US, double check the time because the US is changing this weekend. Time change in USA 0:00 Getting things going 03:09 hello 06:56 housekeeping 11:25 How do you keep the cats away from the workstation and hot irons? 12:40 how far is circuitpython's implementation of asynchronous I/O scheduler (uasyncio)? 14:44 Is there a time you'd pick the STM32F405 Feather over the SAMD51 feather? They seem similarly capable, but Adafruit seems all-in on the SAMD51 16:10 there was no feather airlift so ordered 1 on digikey which has not even shipped yet Ordered another airlift yesterday from adafruit when it came back in stock so which one will show up first? 18:05 Feather RP2040 flash speed fix 18:34 OSHPark USBmicromod/v1 19:29 Are you using debug-edge in anything? Know anyone else who is using it? 24:58 SMT assembly at OSH Park ( no ) 25:11 how does OSH's flex pcb compare to the flex PCB on the neopixel/dotstar strips 26:41 Overhead / RP2040 feathers… flash socket 34:30 How big flash chip we can use with Metro/Feather M4 express? I tried mounting 64Mb but circuitpython didn't support it!!! 35:37 nvm.TOML improvements 38:43 Salea Logic Pro 16 work 40:52 Is there a good small library for ingesting uart stuff, and parsing into variables, in CP ? (for multi headed use cases) 41:19 back to the logic analyzer…. Examining the clock speed up during the boot process 51:10 Luke mentions RXDLY see boot2_w25q80.S for reference 55:46 Well it delays your sampling to the point in time where you launch the next clock transition which should still give you plenty of hold time because your data hold will be equal to round trip delay ​so RX_SAMPLE_DLY = 1 should be fine for BAUDR = 2 ha, I bet the second read is the hardfault vector fetch 58:35 - works one time when new software is installed, but not on power up 1:00:30 is there a good source to understand how PIO was implemented?
