STEMMA Friend is also a UART Friend (with auto-baud detection) Video 23.05.2021

The lil STEMMA Friend board we're working on this weekend could also be a cute lil UART/Serial monitor tool. the RP2040 has a fast enough GPIO peripheral that we can automatically detect baud rates and then turn on the UART peripheral to read data via an IRQ into a buffer. To get the nice scrolling effect (with a header at the top that doesn't scroll!) we have to use a framebuffer - thankfully the...

Desk of Ladyada - STEMMA Friend Rises From the Ashes! Video 23.05.2021

An older project of ours, the STEMMA Friend, has been reborn as an RP2040 board, we'll show off some of the projects we got working with it over the weekend, improvements to the Arduino API for faster SPI and why framebuffering is awesome if you hrave the RAM. We also got an Arduino Nano RP2040 Connect working thanks to BlitzCity's PR - with WiFi too! Mr Ladyada wants a Tube Trinkey, so I picked u...

wow much doge on wifi of arduino nano rp2040 connect Video 22.05.2021

the arduino nano rp2040 connect has much wifi using esp32 co-processor, wow! lets use circuitpython to connect to interwebs and read dogecoin price then display on oled. its very working - amaze! thanks to great displayio library, we have pretty comic sans fonts. circuitpython-requests interface makes json data so easy even puppers could do it. check out pr with code example here https://github.co...

Testing Arduino Nano RP2040 Connect with CircuitPython I2C Video 22.05.2021

Liz submitted a PR to add support for the Nano RP2040 to CircuitPython and we thought to try it out! So far so good, the digital pins all toggle right and we were able to see the built in LSM6DSOX chip on the I2C port. We have a driver for this IMU so hey, why not wire up a quick demo? We have an external OLED wired up on the same I2C bus, reading acceleration/gyro data and displaying it just fine...

Super fast SPI speedup for RP2040 displays Video 22.05.2021

We re-spun our STEMMA Friend design from a SAMD21 to an RP2040 to take advantage of the more-powerful chip, to make it CircuitPython-friendlier and faster at doing stuff like I2C sniffing. While porting over the Arduino code (which pretty much works just fine) we noticed the display is a little sluggish due to SPI data being sent over one byte at a time with a delay. So we're adding a bulk-transfe...

Timelapse Build of RP2040 QT Trinkey Prototypes Video 21.05.2021

After dinner we like to unwind with a tall glass of .. solder paste? sure why not! let's put together two quick prototype boards of a Trinkey that uses an RP2040 chip and fits in the same size and shape as our standard-issue QT sensor breakouts (1" x 0.7"). After stenciling on some paste we hand-place all the components. Then they get reflowed on our cute lil mini reflow plate. During reflow somet...
