Don’t forget to share your current project in the comments or the forum. This week our favorite project gets a free SOIC protoboard.
Here’s a summary of major developments over the last week:
- We released a bunch of abandoned or stalled prototypes: XT IDE disk controller, Ethernet JTAG debugger, Ethernet LED driver, PIC Z-machine emulator, Daft punk table controller
- voidptr shared a tiny OS for the web platform
- schazamp’s made a serial port only version of the Bus Pirate v3b
- Watterott Electronic in Germany is a new Bus Pirate distributor
- A big box of PCBs arrived with the final IR Toy v2 update, and more
- More and more developers are contributing to the Honken USB stack, an open source USB firmware for PIC microcontrollers
We’re not quite sure what’s happening this week, best guess:
- More stalled prototypes
- Lots of firmware development, especially on the 18F24J50
- There’s several new OLS loader utilities and updates. We’ll try to roll the new Verilog core and upgrade utilities into a complete release package
- A new USB IR Toy firmware with minor bug fixes
- Seeed Studio is closed for a few more days. You can still place orders, but they won’t ship until the end of the Spring holiday. Need it in a hurry? Try one of our distributors
