General Discussion / TinyScreen+ Sleep Mode Question

« on: January 21, 2023, 01:57:53 PM »

Can the TinyScreen+ board be woken up by an external accelerometer signal (interrupt, I suppose) instead of one of the push buttons as this link suggests  ... https://tinycircuits.com/blogs/learn/tinyscreen-external-interrupt-sleep-mode?_pos=1&_sid=7de2a5d9b&_ss=r

That is, without any hardware changes...just software.

Thanks,

TinyTV & Tiny Video Player / #include "src/IRremote/IRremote.h"

« on: August 15, 2022, 12:46:08 PM »

Since the TinyCircuits TinyTV Video Player (Arduino code) has the #include "src/IRremote/IRremote.h" ...where can one find the lib?


Thanks,

TinyTV & Tiny Video Player / Tiny TV Remote Power ON-OFF

« on: July 21, 2022, 03:05:17 PM »

Question....does either the remote control or OLED push button actually turn power OFF; i.e., no battery power to the circuitry...or...does this simply blank the display as in display.off()

Is this the Tiny TV software that's loaded onto the OLED board??

General Discussion / newer Nordic BLE module

« on: July 09, 2021, 06:25:01 PM »

Would your newer TinyCircuits Nordic BLE module be the Nordic Semiconductor nrf52811 with 32bit ARM processor and integrated Bluetooth Low Energy communication?   

Like in this product https://flightsketch.com/store/catalog/flightsketch-mini_1/

General Discussion / Dual Motor TinyShield Repair

« on: July 09, 2021, 11:37:33 AM »

I mistakenly removed resistor R1 from the Dual Motor TinyShield  ASD2302-R-C - thinking that it may interfere with the Wireling Adapter (I2C wise).

Question...is it possible to replace R1 (which is shown as 1k on the schematic) with 0 ohms (a dead short jumper)...as a temporary repair for now?

Thanks,
John

General Discussion / Possible Board I2C Conflict

« on: July 05, 2021, 03:03:26 PM »

Will the following 2 boards conflict with one another on the I2C bus without changing address resistors (i.e....out of the box)?

 Dual Motor TinyShield  ASD2302-R-C

 Wireling Adapter TinyShield  ASD2022

Thanks,

General Discussion / MicroSD TinyShield Problem

« on: April 24, 2021, 07:32:57 PM »

I have a MicroSD TinyShield  along with a TinyZero Processor Board.

Do these work together?   

The reason for asking is because the MicroSD indicates pinouts for the TinyDuino Processor Board  and not the TinyZero.

Is there a compatibility issue with the Arduino built-in SPI.h as nothing seems to work in terms of reading and writing to the micro SD card.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,

John

General Discussion / Model Rocket Locator Beacon

« on: March 02, 2021, 10:53:46 AM »

Has anyone used the 2.4GHz or 433MHz boards for locating objects in the field...like model cars, drones and, especially, model rockets? 

I'd be interested in knowing your results and whether the 2.4GHz or 433MHz board is "best" - read "able to better locate the object"

Thanks,

Any news as to when the ZOE GPS TinyShield will become available?

Any details on same would be appreciated so we can plan on implementations.

Thanks...john

General Discussion / How To Access Wireling A0 - A3 Ports

« on: October 28, 2020, 02:57:40 PM »

I have a Wireling Adapter TinyShield   ASD2022 (only one) connected to a TinyZero Processor Board      ASM2021-R-A

I am trying to access either A1, A2 or A3....A0 is used for the 0.42 OLED that seems to work fine. 

Here's part of my code....

Defining the pin
const int       apb   = A1;                   //use A1 as the altitude push button (apb)on the Wireling

Trying to access the analog value
  Wireling.selectPort(apb);                //Select Wireling port
  apb_value = analogRead(apb);             //get the value of the analog port

When opening or closing a push button on this port, I get the same analog value (15 out of 1023)

What do I need to do differently?

Thanks,
John

General Discussion / More Dual Motor Board Software Questions

« on: October 20, 2020, 06:35:41 PM »

Are there a (complete) set of motor commands as hinted in the "TinyCircuits Dual Motor Driver Basic Example"

for example...
  motor.setFailsafe(1000);
    motor.setMotor(1,i);
    motor.setMotor(2,i);

Are there any more like this??

Thanks,
John

General Discussion / Motor Driver Issue

« on: October 20, 2020, 01:20:33 PM »

In attempting to compile the //  TinyCircuits Dual Motor Driver Basic Example - and after installing the <MotorDriver.h>, I get the following error message....'NO_R_REMOVED' was not declared in this scope...

Any ideas as to what I'm doing incorrectly - like die I install the "right" lib?

Thanks,
John

General Discussion / Duel Motor TinyShield Schematic Issue

« on: October 03, 2020, 12:37:37 PM »

I believe that the schematic for the dual motor tinyshield is incorrect...looks like the sensor board schematic, instead.  Go here and click on schematic to confirm.  Thanks....john
