SimpleLink video: https://www.digikey.com/en/videos/t/texas-instruments/simplelink-mcu-platform-sdk-code-portability BAW video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXtsmOmcpdY Product link: https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/texas-instruments/CC2652RB1FRGZR/296-CC2652RB1FRGZRCT-ND/11502644 This week's EYE on NPI is a family of fresh wireless microcontrollers from TI that recently got a cute new update. The CC2652RB is the latest addition to the CC2652/CC1352 family, which a cool twist: there's no external crystals required for this 2.4GHz radio, the built in oscillator is temperature compensated and precise enough to keep the radio tuned! (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/t/texas-instruments/cc2652rb-simplelink-wireless-mcu) While researching it, I ended up looking up the rest of the family, so let's introduce them.The CC2652RB is the latest iteration of the CC2652R (https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/texas-instruments/CC2652RB1FRGZR/296-CC2652RB1FRGZRCT-ND/11502644), which is the little sister to the CC1352R (https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/texas-instruments/CC1352R1F3RGZR/296-CC1352R1F3RGZRCT-ND/10435240). These are part of the TI SimpleLink wireless family of chips - combining a Cortex M4 main processor with a wireless radio subprocessor, in one chip, for ultra-small and ultra-integrated wireless devices. TI has been developing chips in the CC wireless family for years, and they have a substantial segment of the market for WiFi, BLE, ZigBee, sub-GHz, etc. SimpleLink wireless is TI's API/IDE that builds on the MSP43x series of microcontrollers with wireless hardware tacked on so you can reuse the main application code, while changing the underlying protocol and transport. This is handy for IoT products because its common to design a product for WiFi or ZigBee and then release a version that is BLE. We have a video all about IoT protocols and transports if you'd like to familiarize yourself with the design decisions and trade-offs you'll face (https://learn.adafruit.com/alltheiot-transports)Let's check out the deets on this microcontroller set: Texas Instruments' CC2652RB SimpleLink multiprotocol 2.4 GHz wireless crystal-less MCU with integrated TI bulk acoustic wave (BAW) resonator technology supporting Thread, Zigbee®, Bluetooth® 5.1 low energy, IEEE 802.15.4, IPv6-enabled smart objects (6LoWPAN), proprietary systems including the TI 15.4-Stack (2.4 GHz), and concurrent multiprotocol operation through the dynamic multiprotocol manager (DMM) software driver. Integrated BAW resonator technology eliminates the need for external crystals without compromising latency or frequency stability. The CC2652RB device is optimized for low-power wireless communication and advanced sensing in building security systems, HVAC systems, medical, power tools, wired networking, portable electronics, home theater and entertainment, and connected peripheral markets. Microcontroller Powerful 48-MHz Arm® Cortex®-M4F processor EEMBC CoreMark® score: 148 352KB of in-system Programmable Flash 256KB ROM for protocols and library functions 8KB Cache SRAM (Alternatively available as general-purpose RAM) 80KB of ultra-low leakage SRAM.

Full Tutorial: https://learn.adafruit.com/make-it-glow-how-to-solder-neopixels-a-beginners-guide/overview This guide is for beginners who are ready to take the next step in DIY electronics: putting that soldering iron to use to add NeoPixel or other addressable LED lights to your project. You don't have to be able to solder to use NeoPixels! Here is a beginner tutorial that shows how to use NeoPixels with no soldering: https://learn.adafruit.com/make-it-glow-your-first-neopixel-project However, there are times when soldering is really the best option. If you want to use NeoPixel rings, or individual pixels, or create more elaborate or complicated designs with multiple strips, there's really no way to do it without soldering. The good news: it's not as hard as you think! There are a fair number of tools to acquire, but once you've got your station set up, a whole world of creative possibilities will open up for you. In this guide, we'll recommend some tools and equipment that every DIY electronics maker should have in their workshop. Then, we'll go over the techniques and skills needed to get a good solder connection, and how to secure your connections it so they are sturdy and reliable. Finally, we'll cover some techniques for repairing broken strips, and troubleshooting help for when your project just won't behave the way you want.

This week's EYE ON NPI (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/n/nxp-semi/i-mx-rt106l-local-command-voice-solution) looks at a new spin on a familiar favorite! We've chatted before about the IMX RT10xx series of chips from NXP. These 'cross-over' chips are Cortex M7's running at 500 or 600 MHz - that means you get the relative simplicity of a Cortex microcontroller with the speed and power of a microprocessor. Heck, the RT106x's ~3000 CoreMark @ 600 MHz makes it faster for some computations when you compare it to the Raspberry Pi Zero' ~2000 CoreMark (https://www.eembc.org/coremark/view.php?benchmark_seq=2534) - most of that due to the Linux operating system overhead. This chip family recently made its way into CircuitPython (https://circuitpython.org/board/imxrt1060_evk/) as we were super-excited to see such a powerful and low cost chip. OK but back to this week's EYE ON NPI which is a sister-chip, the iMX RT106L (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/n/nxp-semi/i-mx-rt106l-local-command-voice-solution) - an interesting twist to the RT1060 - this chip is licensed to use with a wake-word + voice-activation software stack. It seems like the hardware is the same, and share the same datasheets and reference manuals. So it's more about purchasing hardware that has a licensing cost baked in - this reminds us of when we would purchase MP3 chips that had a 50 cent licensing fee built in. (https://blog.adafruit.com/2017/04/18/is-mp3-now-patent-free-makerbusiness-technicolor/) So, why is this interesting? Well, you've seen the proliferation of voice assistants like Siri, Google Voice and Alexa - they all use a a microcomputer, with a very powerful processor, to record audio and send it to the cloud for processing. Having to build a full computer with operating system to do voice control makes the BoM cost go up - you need a few MB of RAM, plenty of flash, a complex PMIC...what if we could do all of the processing on a really fast microcontroller instead? Like...a 600 MHz M7? Yes! NXP’s MCU-based solution for local voice control leverages the i.MX RT106L crossover MCU, enabling developers to quickly and easily add local voice commands to their products. The ultra-small form-factor, production-ready hardware design comes with fully integrated software that runs on FreeRTOS for quick, out-of-the-box evaluation and proof-of-concept development. This turnkey solution minimizes time-to-market, risk, and development effort, enabling OEMs to easily add voice to their smart home and smart appliance products without the need for Wi-Fi and cloud connectivity while also addressing the privacy concerns of many consumers. There's a few different products in this family. First is the 106L - the L for "Local". (https://www.digikey.com/products/en/integrated-circuits-ics/embedded-microcontrollers/685?k=rt106l) That's internet-less voice command inference. Good for maybe a dozen words. There's a collection of words built-in - for more words you'll have to train up the engine which is a non-trivial task. The Local is great for simple device control and no WiFi is required so its very low power and low cost. Next is the similar 106A, the A is "Alexa", as you may guess it has Amazon Alexa software ready to go to create custom Alexa-connected devices. (https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/nxp-usa-inc/MIMXRT106ADVL6A/568-MIMXRT106ADVL6A-ND/10816229) You'll need to use/add WiFi for the cloud backend communication. Digi-Key has a great tutorial/article about the Alexa series and the nitty-gritty detail of how it works over here (https://www.digikey.com/en/articles/quickly-implement-alexa-built-in-iot-designs) Lastly is the 106F where F is for "Face" - yes facial recognition! (https://www.digikey.com/products/en/integrated-circuits-ics/embedded-microcontrollers/685?k=rt106f) This version connects up to a camera and can be used to recognize faces. These are all interesting machine learning demos many of us have seen, and its interesting to see NXP integrate them as software 'add-on's for a very powerful and capable chip. Note that the RT1060 doesn't have hardware ML acceleration or co-processor, so you'll be relying on the speed and power of the microcontroller itself. We think in the next few years we will see similar "AI ready" chips that are even less expensive thanks to a neural-net accelerator. Meanwhile, if you want to explore these powerful chips, you can check out the entire NXP iMX RT series chip collection here on Digi-Key (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/n/nxp-semi/imx-rt-series) And pick up the iMX RT106L eval kit here on Digi-Key (part 568-SLN-LOCAL-IOT-ND ) so you can start playing with local voice recognition: order today and you'll have it tomorrow!

On the face of it, the S2 seems less capable than the ESP32, with a single core and no Bluetooth or Ethernet. But the S2 more than makes up for that with a much faster CPU, scads more GPIO, more ADCs, a RISC-V co-processor, native USB, and the promise of very low current draw. It could be that the ESP32-S2 proves to be even more popular as it becomes established. To talk us through the new chip's potential, Limor "Ladyada" Fried and Scott Shawcroft, both of Adafruit Industries, will join us on the Hack Chat. Come along and learn everything you need to know about the ESP32-S2, and how to put it to work for you. Join the Hack Chat and return this Wednesday at 12:00PM PDT with your questions! Have an interesting project you're working on? Have something you'd like to discuss? Why not host a Hack Chat? Just stop by our easy sign-up form and tell us what you want to discuss!

This week's EYE ON NPI is a fairly new sensor from MAXIM called the MAX86150 (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/m/maxim-integrated/max86150-integrated-ppg-and-ecg-biosensor-module). We recently did a video where we took apart an off-the-shelf pulse oximeter (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ut7oGkIwRrE) and some folks have asked how they can build their own for learning about bio-sensing, or emergency use. We looked around and found in addition to the common MAX30102 (https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/maxim-integrated/MAX30102EFD/MAX30102EFD-ND/6166869), this MAX86150 (https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/maxim-integrated/MAX86150EFF-T/MAX86150EFF-TCT-ND/9839125) is a nice Integrated Photoplethysmogram and Electrocardiogram Bio-Sensor Module For Mobile Health. Phew, that's a lot of words, but what it means is that it's an optical sensor for pulse oximetry (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pulse_oximetry) with the addition of an EKG analog front end (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrocardiography). This is pretty rare - usually there's one sensor to manage the optical blood-gas sensing and one to do the electrical heart activity sensing. Why both? For telemedicine or self-monitoring, it might be beneficial to see the electrical activity waveforms as well as the SpO2 measurements since they can signify different health issues. The MAX86150 is an interesting chip in that it has a clear body for IR/Red LED emitting and sensing. Unlike most pulse oximeters we've seen, this does not shine light through the finger, it bounces the light off of the finger tip instead. This makes it a simpler wearable, although the cost is a little higher because of the high integration. One cute thing we noticed in the datasheet is that the sensor automatically detects when there's something in front of the optical sensor so that it will not keep blasting the high power LEDs, a nice power-saving trick! The interface for this chip is I2C, so it's easy to use with just about any chipset. You set the sensor off to collect data and then read the waveform back out. The PPG data is processed by a 19-bit ADC, the EKG is 18-bit and a FIFO collects data in chunks so you can read it at your convenience. Note that the sensor is 1.8V power and logic - it's designed for low power wearables - so you will need level shifting circuitry for use with 5V or 3.3V microcontrollers & microcomputers. Best of all, there's a super-sweet MAX86150 evaluation board (https://www.digikey.com/products/en/development-boards-kits-programmers/evaluation-boards-sensors/795?k=MAX86150) that even has the two 'dry' EKG electrodes you put your fingers over. The board is a FeatherWing, and even comes with a MAXIM Feather board, so you can make a portable BLE sensor. If you want to order up some MAX86150, Digi-Key has tons in stock in both tray and cut tape (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/m/maxim-integrated/max86150-integrated-ppg-and-ecg-biosensor-module) - visit https://www.digikey.com/product-detail/en/maxim-integrated/MAX86150EFF/MAX86150EFF-ND/7392247 to order this sensor today! ----------------------------------------- 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/
