TinyTimer-KS boards arrive
I’m excited. The TinyTimer boards showed up today from OSHPark. Hope to have one assembled and get it into testing. These are the latest prototype revision.
Net Hatchling – a ENC28J60 DIP Breakout board
I put a new project together this weekend. It is called Net-Hatchling. It’s a break-out board for the ENC28J60. The ENC28J60 is a micro-chip ethernet controller. It’s relatively inexpensive and available in a DIP format. There are essentially two alternatives for ethernet in the Arduino world, this chip and a Wiznet5100. Wiznet 5100 […]
TinyTimer-Classic Prototype Boards
I touched up TinyTimer-Classic this evening and ordered some prototype boards from #oshpark. I added a standard 6 pin ISP header, and reset button. I changed it over to the standard relay I’ve been using as well. Once it comes in I will do a confirmation build, write instructions, and publish it. Should be a […]
New Prototype boards ordered for TinyTimer Duo
I spent some time this evening revising TinyTimer Duo. I made both relays capable of handling AC loads. I also added a second input, and switched the chip in the design to an Atmega328p-PU which is the same as what is in some types of Arduino boards. This makes it fully compatible. The inputs are […]
TinyTimer another revision and new boards
I sat down this evening to work on the instructions and the prototype. I realized I had omitted a resistor on the run/program switch. I also decided to reduce the number of buttons and change the way the LED displays work. For those who have been following the project, the original goal was two knobs, […]
TinyTimer Prototype board arrived
Great news, the prototype boards arrived in the mail yesterday for TinyTimer-Kickstarter edition. I’m hoping to work on assembly and testing this week. I’ve been doing some construction on my house and my office is a bit of a mess. I did a quick test fit of the LED module and Max7219CNG chip and both […]
