Q for Lady Ada: I would love to see a digikey search on fans. I am using an Ender3 Pro 24v PSU and looking for a quieter replacements for the 24v Motherboard and Hotend fans with comparable specs. What is considered "quiet"? Anything under 24decibels? My goal is to document it and use as few voltage regulars as possible.

#

Hehe

#

@open girder Is there an SPI version?

teal river
#

You can tell this isn't Adafruit documentation because it uses master/slave instead of controller/peripheral

#

CAN bus microcontrollers are reeeaaaaalllllllyyyy expensive... as are most CAN adapters I've looked at

Thanks LadyAda for replying to my Q.

I like and agree with the Adafruit reason to go open source!

#

CAN bus is exposed on the OBD-II port of a modern car

#

I love that CAN bus attitude

teal river
#

Ohhh... drat, guess that CAN layer adapter isn't the savior

#

But still cool

hot frigate
#

SPI and I2C tend to be communication protocols used on the same board, while CAN would be more for board to board (over distances, with a signal that is less impervious to noise)

limber wolf
#

The CANT buss is closed source...

quick veldt
#

Plus Adafruit is sort of proof open hardware doesn’t really affect profitability because I don’t ever see Adafruit boards not manufactured by Adafruit.

Q: is Arduino support in the works for the ItsyBitsy RP2040?

I've seen Adafruit clones, but they're so close in pricing it becomes a matter of "why even bother? it's not worth saving 20 cents and have the risk of it not working. plus adafruit has stellar support and the learning system. it's worth it."

I think the RP2040, in addition to being an interesting and available chip, is pretty popular because it's Raspberry Pi too, a valued and popular brand

quick veldt
#

Q: The CRICKIT board itself is quite expensive and it must be paired with a micro controller. (About $50) Now that the Seesaw chip onboard the CRICKIT is more expensive than the RP2040, have you considered making an updated integrated board?

quick veldt
hot frigate
teal river
#

The biggest thing with Adafruit being open source is that small companies can develop with Adafruit's hardware, then adapt the designs for their needs, which enables them to make money in whatever niche that Adafruit probably wouldn't be covering specifically. Adafruit makes money, they make money, win-win!

@open girder Just a quick clarification on the CRICKIT topic. I know the microcontroller is only a few dollars of the entire cost of the board. That’s why I think it would be nice to install Circuit Python on a CRICKIT and use it directly instead of over I2C.

#

Versus using it with a feather or circuit playground with a ton of unneeded support circuitry.

rapid hornet
#

one reason we went with a coprocessor was that 1) it allows us to know for sure the time critical code isn't contending with other execution and 2) allows for flexibility with what coprocessor you are using on the board that plugs in

quick veldt
#

Ah I see. But wouldn’t it be possible to have both use cases?

#

I’m not arguing with you in any way. But I feel as if this topic could be explored further to make new exciting affordable robotics.

rapid hornet
#

I know one person remixed the crickit board but I can't remember who

quick veldt
#

Maybe even using one core of the RP2040 to as the coprocessor and the other to run other execution. This of course isn’t functionally in CP yet but that would be so neat!

#

Anyway thanks for the response and I appreciate all the things you do with CP. 👍

teal river
#

Quad-core CP-compatible microcontrollers when?

quick veldt
#

I feel like people forget 2040 is dual core

#

It's like...however good it is now. You're only using half of it!

#

And it already costs half of other single core microcontrollers.

teal river
#

I haven't even flexed the one core I have been using XD but it would be cool to have access to both, I'm sure CP will get there

rapid hornet
#

concurrency programming is really hard to do correctly

#

I'm more interested in the earlier phases of learning to program and use computers

quick veldt
#

Definitely. Although today my goal was to experiment with it in MicroPython. Fun stuff.

grand tusk
#

cheap microcontrollers are the opiate of the masses

rapid hornet
#

that gives us less reason to support it 🙂

#

there are already ways of using it

quick veldt
#

If Adafruit is going to sell RP2040 boards that ship with Circuit Python there should be a way to utilize them fully, in my opinion.

rapid hornet
#

(though I'd love to see it added. it's just not anywhere near the top of my priority list)

quick veldt
#

But yes the Micro Python support lightens the load. It's already there to have fun with.

rapid hornet
#

that's the wrong way to look at it

teal river
#

What if dual-core microcontrollers became the norm? Would it become a higher priority to get concurrency in there?

rapid hornet
#

you'll never finish anything if you focus on 100% support for something

#

instead, it's better to look at what you want to do with something, and what you need in order to achieve it

grand tusk
#

use what you need

#

You don't have to use all the fonts unless you're writing a random note.

quick veldt
#

Is that a challenge

rapid hornet
#

there is a ton you can do on the rp2040 without the second core

teal river
#

The RP2040 is DANG fast!

sudden slate
#

Thanks

quick veldt
#

Plus overclock-able.

teal river
#

I mean, it can drive VGA signals with that one core, it's nuts!

quick veldt
#

The things I don't get about the Pico is the pins labeled on the bottom and no reset button

#

Otherwise it seems a beautiful and perfectly cheap board

teal river
#

I just use a second Pico to tell which pins are which :P

quick veldt

It's so cheap it's my reference!

Excellent workshop session, @haughty quiver. Got me thinking about using an Abletron-like controller for live tracks. Need to see how it might interface with Studio One 5's performance mode.

I'm new to midi(so forgive me if this is a crazy question) . So I can download a midi program, connect the MP and start making music? How is that music saved? and can the MP connect to a smartphone(usbc) with midi app?

haughty quiver
#

@woeful pond In this case the Macropad is being used to trigger "clips" in the music software. Those clips can be pre-recorded sample files, such as .wav or .aif, or the clips can be a type of music notation on a type of piano roll saved as MIDI note messages which create the sounds in realtime using synthesis.

woeful pond

@haughty quiver understood, thanks

haughty quiver
#

I haven't tried yet, @woeful pond but the Macropad should work as a MIDI controller on phones and tablets.

@woeful pond there's lots of free music apps on computers. On Mac, GarageBand is surprisingly good. On Windows, Cakewalk. On Linux, LMMS is pretty great. On Mac & Windows. Ableton offers a "Live Lite" that I think is free. And all of these will work with JP's MIDI controllers he's built

i made a art contest for shoutouts

and soon will be a amazing decision wheel for a random number generator

so you bet a number and see if your number wins in the number betting game

prepare for a microbit v2 game on the makecode editor

so, I'm not sure how you embed discord in OBS, but you can try this for the font size:

span[class^="username-"], div[class^="markup-"] { font-size: 140%!important; }
#

ah

rustic sand

pick one of the 2 themes reply the toebeans if you like the animals category or reply aadafruit if you like the celebrations category

upper sandal

ok the web page, that's what I tried

In the real app you can Command-+ to up the size (at least on macOS)

right on

no but you are using the OBS browser embed aren't you ?

cause you could do that

Scoping rules

Main difference is scoping rules. Variables declared by var keyword are scoped to the immediate function body (hence the function scope) while let variables are scoped to the immediate enclosing block denoted by { } (hence the block scope).

We may need a picture of each demo, so that when checking with a new version we just need to compare the "image".

7.0.0-alpha.2 works
7.0.0-alpha.3 does not work.

alpha.2 -> alpha.3 was when Scott did all the MicroPython catch-up merging

if you want to play with this in CircuitPython, I think you don't need a library to get started, but rather doing simple two-byte writes and one-byte reads, like:

haughty quiver
#

(Tod just volunteered to write the library, sweet!)

cinder wind
#

to write to addr addr with byte data:
i2c.writeto(i2c_addr, bytearray([addr, data]))
to read from addr into data:
data = bytearray(1); i2c.writeto_then_readfrom(i2c_addr, bytearray([addr]),data)

haughty quiver

excellent!

This might be a good starting point

teal river

Hey JP, I have a present for you whenever you get a PO box!

waxen bough
#

Doesn't the eeprom have a "read device id" function? ( I just checked the data sheet, and apparently not, so I guess to find the capacity you have to write and readback like the demo does) One thing important to notice is that the endurance of the memory differs: The first 4k is rated for 10,000,000 Erase/Write cycles while the rest is only rated for 100,000 Erase/Write cycles! Something to keep in mind.

So, 16G is good with the 3D apps?

waxen thistle

I have 2019 Macbook Pro -- i7, 16gb ram, dedicated GPU, etc.

waxen thistle

I would upgrade if I didn't already sink so much into this machine. Maybe the M1x/M2 version of the upcoming Macbook Pro 16" might be enough to get me to change.

rapid pecan
#

the M1 mac mini is the category killer if you're on the fence - Regardless, no matter how fast an intel arch chipset is going to get you, that RAM is not on-die... the RAM in an M1 is essentially an L4 cache

Just started using an M1 Mini -- so far so good -- very smooth transition -- once it installed Rosetta!

If the M1 supported more than 2x total displays (I have a triple monitor setup in my workflow)....I'd be onboard with migrating from a 2019 purchase.

I have a maxxed out 2018 mac mini (64GB 3.2Ghz Hexa i7), and the base M1 mini with 16GB beats it almost everywhere

woeful pond

@rapid pecan would you reccommend more memory with the M1?

rapid pecan
#

it depends on what you're doing... for 90% of folks, its probably unnecessary

waxen thistle
#

The M1 platform is such a radical improvement on usability, that it's stopped me from buying a Windows laptop. "I could drop $800-1300 on a windows laptop, and it wouldn't even come close to the entry level Macbook Air. Zero contest."

woeful pond

@rapid pecan for apps like F360, spreadsheet, simplify..etc?

@woeful pond in isolation - probably not, but for someone running multiple docker containers, an IDE running in debug mode, and too many browser tabs to count - yeah

woeful pond
#

@rapid pecan up toward 32G I guess....thanks

rapid pecan
#

concurrently running apps, or editing huge graphics / video files is really the only reason why you would NEED more RAM. I'm guessing they might put 32G in the M2 - at that point, you're not going to be longing for much

I yield the remainder of my time to the honuorable processor from the raspberry pi foundation.

Wow I was just talking about asynchronous python

What about the SECOND processor? :O

Wow

That’s a nice demo

Nice, simple demo

I'm pretty sure async is still there but haven't used it myself

teal river
#

But which is better: asyncio or dual core?

#

I mean running on both Pico cores

smoky island
#

shout out to WarriorOfWire for implementing async and await for us in circuitpython

Jingle cat, jingle cat, jingle all the way~

Async is really important

Especially when using async to wait. For fetch request of database etc

I had to recycle a bunch of adafruit and digikey boxes, I ended up with way more then I could use

Took 9 long weeks of waiting (short by current standards)

I only have one Adafruit box, not counting AdaBox boxes

I get a lot of packets

I got a bit behind but I'm catching up at 1.5x speed .. I don't think I caught all the details

I have returned! With corndogs!

I had springroll here

shadow epoch
#

Cherry Fro-Yo mmmm

nova totem

I have leftover springrolls but opted for the leftover thai noodles first

robust horizon
#

these were fresh, Ingrid has cracked the code and makes pretty darned good ones now.

teal river

Thai food tries to kill me DX

robust horizon
#

following a good recipe is the key

nova totem
#

that sounds good

shadow epoch
#

me: I don't need to make the naughty cat project... also me: watching my cat chew on a houseplant...

robust horizon
#

as far as thai food goes (if that's the origin of the springroll) it's very mild. Mostly fresh vegetables, some noodles, some rice paper, and some peanut sauce. We used pan-fried tofu as the protein.

#

herbs -- basil and mint

teal river
#

The sauce is what will kill me

open girder
teal river
#

Whoa

#

This one is startin' off a bit trippy

robust horizon

it's like the end of 2001

teal river
#

Question: Is there a project idea that you're too intimidated to try to start?

#

robust horizon
#

Not a question, but a hug report. Limor & PT, you are so good about giving credit to others. I was glad you liked my tip about the lead time trends page on DigiKey, but you went the extra mile and name-dropped me during your program on Sunday when you showed it.

Cant wait until that EEPROM to arrive

teal river

I haven't come up with something that I need an external EEPROM for yet... XD

autumn fulcrum
woeful pond
#

I want to learn the code around it.

teal river
#

Spoop music

woeful pond
#

To give a project memory (from EEPROM)

shell mason
#

MIDI style with synths like Park, JohnPark like to do

teal river
#

I mean, I haven't come up with a project where I could use extra EEPROM so far XD

finite inlet
woeful pond
#

Ahhh.

teal river
#

I kinda do things that don't use non-volatile storage, or it needs more and I use like an SD card

#

Mmm formatted strings...

woeful pond
#

Yes. I'm thinking to remember something when it turns off and come back on with that retained memory, same colors, same data

teal river
#

Yeah. I usually have things start at some default and not the last used value

oh I loved Miner2049er

I haven't played that in forever :O

what kind of game is it? I have not heard of it.

teal river

I shall be working at a convention that day DX

teal river

Kinda

woeful pond
#

ohh. thanks

teal river
#

I'm bad at explaining XD Wikipedia is better https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miner_2049er

Miner 2049er

Miner 2049er is a platform video game created by Bill Hogue that was released in 1982 by Big Five Software. It was developed for the Atari 8-bit family and widely ported to other systems. The title "Miner 2049er" evokes a 21st-century take on the California Gold Rush of around 1849, in which the gold miners and prospectors were nicknamed "49ers"...

I would join if I actually had time to check email and read newsletters DX

woeful pond
#

@teal river Agreed. but I can't write off Arduino yet. I have to still learn to do some of the things with python first before I write off Arduino

#

@teal river but the CP code load is much faster

teal river
#

Mmmm NeXT

nova totem
#

I do run into some cases where C or Arduino would be better but nothing I have spent time on in any depth.

woeful pond
#

@teal river I can't tell yet

#

teal river
#

Question: is there an advantage or disadvantage to having the OSWH logo on devices? I've seen some things have it and some don't

#

I like LadyAda's rambles

robust horizon
#

Transcripts are great

teal river
#

Nobody looks like they do on fancy pictures XD younger or not

sudden slate
#

I like CP better, but I'm more fluent in the C family - (meaning Arduino, C, C++, and C#)

woeful pond
#

I'd like to keep both for now

teal river
#

Yeah, having started with C, moved into C++, then C#, it's ingrained in me... but I'm not married to it, and CP seems to give flexibility I felt lacking in C family

nova totem
#

I solved my itch to still do C by contributing to the CP core ha
