  1. SDFS & finding a faster way to append data to closed file

    Dear all,
    I am in the process of developing a datalogger that records to SDCard using SDFS.pbp
    The code is working wonderfully with hardware SPI, on a PIC16F67J50.

    I am apending data to a file...

    Re: 144 LED Games Console Project

    Got it back from fabrication. I spotted a small mistake on my behalf, a missing via hole... nothing dramatic.

    Next come the assembly and modification of the source code to remap I/Os and invert...

    Re: 144 LED Games Console Project

    Ok, there's a bit more modes than I thougt. I'll leave the board with generic silk screen (SW1-SW4), that way other functions can be implemented without having the wrong function written below the...

    Re: 144 LED Games Console Project

    Art, I'd need some help with the button functions to label them correctly on the silkscreen:

    What is the power on mode for each wen you press UP/LEFT/DOWN/RIGHT and when the board is horizontal...

    Re: 144 LED Games Console Project

    There are many LED drivers IC around. The nice thing here is to use only off the shelf, easy to find transistors to drive the matrix.

    I have a large 16x16 chainable LED matrix in project using PWM...

    Re: 144 LED Games Console Project

    A clock would be nice, should not be too hard to write as I've seen some implementation somewhere on this forum. Darrel's routines for interrupt are very simple to use, so you could use a timer...

    Re: 144 LED Games Console Project

    Just found this great project and was really excited!

    I have just finished drawing a PCB for it, with two possible versions: one with 5mm leds and the other with large 10mm leds. It's all using...

    Re: USBSERVICE + serout2 problem

    After debugging everything pinpoint an issue coming from the different revision of the PIC. The CDC routine works with silicon revision 0000006 of the PIC18LF14K50, but not 0000005.

    Re: USBSERVICE + serout2 problem

    Well.. finally was able to track the problem down to a conflict between the use of SPWM_INT.bas and USB_ASM_Service.pbp. If I disable the Timer1 interrupt used for sPWM then the USB works well....

    And everything collapsed!

    The CDC USB routine was working well until now. It is working very well on my early prototypes, I made 3 more identical one and the PIC just stop running randomly after a...

    Re: MIDI over USB peripheral

    Now for the basic stuff over MIDI messages, the setup will not be using velocity, so that default value of 64 should be used. These should be the message I will have to deal with:

    MIDI over USB peripheral

    Dear everyone,

    I was toying with the idea of building a realistic organ console that would send MIDI data over USB. As I understand MIDI signaling is nothing more than a serial communication using...

    Re: Change variable allocation to save code space

    EEPROM will not be possible as there is no footprint on the PCB.
    I have suppressed all the redundancy in the remaining of the code and managed to free more than 800 words (more than 20%!). I still...

    Design is completed and can't be changed, beside there's no available I/O pin left.
