This week's EYE ON NPI is FIRST in it's class - it's the Molex FIRST Robotics Components Cable Kit (https://www.digikey.com/short/nddt5cvr), designed specifically for the thousands of high school students who are participating in FIRST robotics classes and competitions (https://www.firstinspires.org/). This box comes chock-full of 2 and 3-conductor color coded cables, with different pitches and co...

OK more floppy fun, this time with jepler helping out - we're doing some cross-platform code sharing where the mfm decoding C code is going to be the same for arduino and circuitpython. jepler wrote up the mfm-decoding-and-crc-verifying for circuitpython and it was pretty easy to integrate it into arduino so that we can not just read flux data but the actual binary data! here we've got a simple fl...

This week @adafruit we’re checking out wipper snapper with QT Py ESP32-S2 and making a snap fit case. Timelapse this week is of some fashionable jewelry with Lego compatible rings from @agepbiz Neato! YouTube Video https://youtu.be/NaFqSdJdPmQ Wipper Snapper Quick Start Guide https://learn.adafruit.com/quickstart-adafruit-io-wippersnapper QT Py Snap Fit Case Learn Guide https://learn.adafruit.com/...

For the ESP32 Pico QT Py, we will be including a CP2102N (covered a few weeks ago!) to do USB to serial conversion. We also need a dual NPN transistor to do the funky reset/boot toggle required to reset the ESP32 into bootloading mode. On our Feathers, we used two SOT-23's but we have so little space, we'd like to find something the same size as our BSS138 duals we use on STEMMA QT sensor boards!...

jepler just tossed us a build of circuitpython with the new native 'adafruit_floppy' module which implements MFM decoding 'on the fly' to provide python-native filesystem support for floppy drives! yep, you can now store files and code that is read or executed off of a floppy disk. we whipped up a quick demo that lists the files on a disk and pages through any textfiles it finds, and tossed on a c...

This weekend we cranked through 3.5 QT Py designs (we didnt finish routing one, its a toughie!) - we already make SAMD21, RP2040 and ESP32-S2 and we wanted to add some more chips to the mix: ESP32-S3 (dual core version of the S2), ESP32 Pico (OG ESP with built in flash/psram), ESP32-C3 (Risc-V wifi!) and nRF52840 (BLE wonder-chip from Nordic). the last one is what we didn't get to finish routing b...

hey everyone! after taking care of some fruit-biz-stuff and releasing some exciting new products, we're back to fun...FLOPPY FUN! we want to add floppy writing support but our wiring harness was a little unwieldly - thankfully our floppy featherwing we designed last week arrived and after some quick soldering and pin define changes, it works just as well. now we can continue on our floppy journey...
