Welcome! I bet you make kick ass smoothies I don't, my wife doesn't let me play with our blender. It doesn't work very well and she is scared that I will mod it.

Can you record it for those not able to be there on the 23rd? Like a screen cast?

whats a Fraunchpad?

I didn't know they made PCBs

I like your analogies

just curiosity, Those(like me) that have to unplug and replug your launch pad, what os are you using. Windows here.

I am building a robot similar to this. I have dedicated UC controlling the motors, sensors and displays (to be implemented). they then communicate with a brain with a can bus using a chip from Microchip. I forget the number but you can communicate to it usin SPI

some times I got to plug and unplug mine cause it just stop detecting. I don't remember the error it gives me

Thanks for that. I was just guessing. Ill do some of that reading lol

They are trying to implement boost in the standard C++2. so it should be portable

Thanks! I don't know why, for some reason I had drawn VCC -> resistor -> reset pin -> ground. I am not sure why I did that lol. the cap would be to start from gnd and slowly bring it to vcc?

wouldn't that bring my reset pin to ground? would a voltage divider with a small resistor and VCC and a large one on the ground work?

the punch cards concept is still used if you think about it. When you need to darken the circles on a survey (using only an HB pencil). My high school use that to take attendance. one of my friends, from high school, wrote a software for it to generate a hex file for a motorola chip

how would you tie the reset pin if you wanted to be able to reprogram it in the field?

cant you just put break points and view the variable state? that is how I do it
