This week - We tackle the TLV320DAC3100, fixing headphone & mic issues for a breakout board. Plan to use it in AudioFX remake. Jepler advanced HSTX DVI text mode for Fruit Jam. Also, a search for a new pocket multimeter begins as the fave Amprobe PM51A is discontinued.

Join Scott as he tests the Fruit Jam by creating simple games. He'll also answer questions folks ask.

This week @adafruit we’re highlighting our new learn guide project of custom add-ons for an IKEA coat hanger. Checking out new demos using WLED and the Sparkle Motion board. Starting a new segment dubbed Rapid Prototype - Showcasing AI CAD tools and 3D printed generated models. Also, community makes. Timelapses this week feature a lattice bowl that works as a magsafe charger. Learn Guide: https://...

Jepler has been working round the clock to get HSTX DVI (https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_dvhstx/blob/main/examples/02texttest/02texttest.ino) output support for the Fruit Jam (https://www.adafruit.com/product/6200) working - this mode is neat because its 'text only' - you get 3-bit color text, it does that by creating a 'resolution' of 91 x 30 characters, you can only set the color and glyph....

Woo! This xscreensaver-like demo shows random lines and colors displaying on a mini 7-inch HDMI monitor (https://www.adafruit.com/product/1667): it's a 320x240 'pixel doubled' display that is running from the Fruit Jam, an RP2350-based mini computer board (https://www.adafruit.com/product/6200). But what's cool is that we're now using the HSTX interface rather than PIO+core bit-banging. That means...

OK, after many hours spent with Claude on writing a driver for the TLV320DAC3100 (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/texas-instruments/TLV320DAC3100IRHBR/2260591), we finally have it configured using our driver, and playing an MP3 stream on this ESP32. This I2S DAC has a particularly complex PLL and audio-routing system, so it's not one where you can just pipe in I2S data and have it magic...

You can 3D print your own custom add-ons for this coat stand from IKEA. 3D Files: https://learn.adafruit.com/ikea-coat-stand These playful 3D printed add-ons are inspired by an early 20th-century public domain cartoon. We think it's a fun blend of practical and whimsical product design that you can make yourself. The “Alganas” hat and coat stand from IKEA features a simple design that stands up-ri...

Timon is designing a backpack for the Pi Compute Module, and we're stuffing it full of fun features. We need a lot of clearance for the Pi Compute module so we can put parts underneath. Let's look up the matching connectors for the CM4/CM5, what clearances you'll get, pricing, and the availability from DigiKey. See the chosen part on DigiKey: https://www.digikey.com/short/bhj2r04p ----------------...

Ladyada explores I2S DACs, testing PCM51xx as a UDA1334A alternative. Work continues on the TLV320DAC3100, we test an AI API interface for setters/getters for Claude with pay per token. A new Pi Compute Module backpack is in progress - And we search for tall connectors for CM4/CM5.

We used to stock a PiCam Module (https://www.adafruit.com/product/5247) that would plug into a Pi CM4 or CM5 - recently we went to restock it, but the vendor hasn't replied to our emails for many months. So, it could be a good time for us to design something that works similarly but with more capabilities. So we tasked Timon (https://github.com/timonsku) with designing something for us - we just s...

We're starting to stock a lot of chips that can do digital I2S out, which makes for great-quality audio playback. That's great when you have enough processing power to decode WAVs or MP3s in real-time. However, we could really use some better DACs in the shop. We like the UDA1334A (https://www.adafruit.com/product/3678), but that's technically discontinued - it's great because it doesn't require a...
