<p>Scroll to the end for the <a class="reference internal" href="#conclusion">TL;DR</a>.</p>
<p>In this article I will give an overview on the protocols spoken on serial ports, highlighting common pitfalls. I will
summarize some points on how to design a serial protocol that is simple to implement and works reliably even under error
conditions.</p>
<p>If you have done low-level microcontroller firmware you will regularly have had to stuff some data up a serial port to
another microcontroller or to a computer. In the age of USB, an old-school serial port is still the simplest and
quickest way to get communication to a control computer up and running. Integrating a ten thousand-line USB stack into
your firmware and writing the necessary low-level drivers on the host side might take days. Poking a few registers to
set up your UART to talk to an external hardware USB to serial converter is a matter of minutes.</p></div></description> + </item> + <item> + <title>Thor's Hammer</title> + <link>http://jaseg.de/blog/thors-hammer/</link> + <pubDate>Thu, 03 May 2018 11:59:37 +0200</pubDate> + <guid>http://jaseg.de/blog/thors-hammer/</guid> + <description><div class="document">

fact about PS/2 is that the clock line is only active as long as either the host computer or the input device actually
want to send data. In case of a keyboard that's the case when a key is pressed or when the host changes the keyboard's
LED state, otherwise the clock line is silent. We ignore the LED activity for now as it's generally coupled to key
presses. By just triggering an NE555 configured as astable flipflop we can stretch each train of clock pulses to a
pulse a few tens of milliseconds long that is enough to actuate the solenoid.</p></div></description> + </item> + <item> + <title>32-Channel LED tape driver</title> + <link>http://jaseg.de/blog/multichannel-led-driver/</link> + <pubDate>Wed, 02 May 2018 11:31:14 +0200</pubDate> + <guid>http://jaseg.de/blog/multichannel-led-driver/</guid> + <description><div class="document">


<p>Together, a friend and I outfitted the small staircase at Berlin's Chaos Computer Club with nice, shiny RGB-WW LED tape for ambient lighting. For this installation, I made a 32-channel LED driver that achieves high dynamic range on all 32 channels using a cheap microcontroller by using Binary Code Modulation.</p>

<p>After the <a href="#system-message-1"><span class="problematic" id="problematic-1">`multichannel LED driver`_</span></a> was completed, I was just getting used to controlling LEDs at 14-bit resolution. I liked the board we designed in this project, but at 32 channels it was a bit large for most use cases. Sometimes I just want to pop a piece of LED tape or two somewhere, but I don't need a full 32 channels of control. I ended up thinking that a smaller version of the 32-channel driver that didn't require a separate control computer would be handy. So I sat down and designed a variant of the design with only 8 channels instead of 32 and an on-board <a href="#system-message-2"><span class="problematic" id="problematic-2">ESP8266_</span></a> module instead of the <a href="#system-message-3"><span class="problematic" id="problematic-3">RS485_</span></a> transceiver for WiFi connectivity.</p>

<h2>Preface</h2>
<p>Recently, I have been working on a <a class="reference external" href="http://jaseg.de/blog/wifi-led-driver/">small driver</a> for ambient lighting using 12V LED strips like you can get
inexpensively from China. I wanted to be able to just throw one of these somewhere, stick down some LED tape, hook it up
to a small transformer and be able to control it through Wifi. When I was writing the firmware, I noticed that when
fading between different colors, the colors look <em>all wrong</em>! This observation led me down a rabbit hole of color
perception and LED peculiarities.</p></div></description> + </item> + </channel> +</rss> |
