Large CMOS or CCD image sensors I'm considering replacing the eyepiece in a 6-inch newtonian reflector with an image sensor of some flavour... I've hacked up a web cam but the sensor at 1/4" is too small; the... |

Riddle me this... where's the current going? A straight-forward oscillator as above, 4MHz. The two gates are the only ones used on the package; all other inputs are tied high or low as most convenient for the wiring, about... |

M644A vs M324P serial problem Got an interesting one here... I'm trying to use UART0 on a 644A to talk to a u-blox6 GPS chip, and failing. The same code, same pins, same voltage, same clock speed, same... |

Mega324A and SPI problem What am I doing wrong, guys? I have some SPI code lifted from Dharmani's micro-SD card (and hopefully modified correctly for the different port and control register names) which... |

5v to 3v3 interface thoughts... This is the tale of a (now solved) subtle bug in a 5v to 3v3 level converter; it might help someone with a similar issue. In this case I was talking to some Ramtron FRAM. Recall... |

[TUT] Signed and unsigned multiplication A brief note on multiplying signed numbers Range: Using, for the sake of example, 8-bit numbers, it's clear that the number can take a total of 2^8 (256) discrete values. What... |

DC-DC converter - LTC3642 I started playing with this chip as a 5v-3v3 high efficiency voltage converter and was very impressed. I'm getting 92% efficiency on the power conversion at 3.3mA output (I still... |

File tab naming bug Here's a good one: - open a convenient file in AS5 editor - 'save as' something else - observe that the file name on the editor tag has not changed - make changes to the visible... |

printf, floats, and AVR5 All right, I'm sure there must be a way to do it, but I'm blowed if I can find it... Surely there must be a better way of getting floating point printf than including the line... |

Aaargh. Optimisation breaks my code. And optimisation is required to make _delay_ms work properly... Applies to AVR4 and AVR5; was fine with AVR3. Head bender time. For reasons I don't know and can't easily track,... |
