This request came in on YouTube - someone looking for a low quiescent current boost regulator. This is a pretty common thing to look for, but it's actually not easy to search for! Also, DC/DC regulators are hard-hit by the silicon shortage & we want to find one in stock. Tune in to find out some suggestions and how I found a good option to explore!

Yay our IS31FL3741 PCB is finally fabbed - we made some with two different LEDs to compare. Thankfully our yield was 100% for the 4 panels we manufactured. Next up we're going to test out and bring up our LED glasses design which is basically a mechanically 'deconstructed' version of the same board. Most annoying part? Doing the LED mapping! We actually found its easier to do that in CircuitPython...

When you start putting a ton of RGB LEDs on a board, the price of 'smart' pixel LEDs like NeoPixels & DotStars starts to add up. That's why we fancy this IS31FL3741 breakout, which has 117 RGB common-anode LEDs, each one controlled with 8-bit-per-channel PWM. At a penny or two per, we can sell this board for a reasonable price and its fully controllable over I2C. #comingsoon #adafruit #IS31FL3741...

This week's EYE ON NPI is moving in the right direction - it's U-Blox's XPLR-AOA Direction Finding and Indoor Positioning Explorer Kit! This NPI tries to solve a well-trod but still not-fully-solved technical challenge of how to perform 3D tracking of low cost/low power 'tags' indoors. Ironically, object tracking is something that humans and animals do very well - we can even track things that hav...
