| 01:13.49 | prpplague | MonMotha: you ask about an alternative to that max1896? |
| 01:24.45 | T0mW | prpplague: good morning Dave |
| 01:28.57 | prpplague | T0mW: hey |
| 01:29.02 | prpplague | T0mW: heading to bed soon |
| 01:29.12 | prpplague | just checking the pc before hitting the hay |
| 01:29.32 | prpplague | T0mW: voltage doubler/booster |
| 01:29.37 | prpplague | T0mW: you ahve a preference? |
| 01:29.58 | prpplague | T0mW: need 500mA and do 5v from as low as 3v |
| 01:49.02 | T0mW | prpplague: sorry, I had the sound turned off. |
| 01:49.23 | T0mW | prpplague: you need a 3v to 5v boost? |
| 01:49.47 | T0mW | e.g. use two akaline cells to produce 5volts then |
| 01:50.34 | T0mW | prpplague: you need a chip to that, look to liner technologies. They have a lot of those power supply stuff. |
| 01:50.46 | jcrouse | nice grammar |
| 01:51.55 | jcrouse | stupid poetic justice |
| 01:55.36 | davidc__ | yeah, linear is awesome |
| 01:55.41 | davidc__ | especially for short production runs |
| 01:55.56 | davidc__ | they're not as cheap as some others, but their tech support is unparalelled |
| 02:21.39 | prpplague | T0mW: yea, i was looking at a max1896 |
| 02:21.48 | prpplague | T0mW: and a liner tech one as well |
| 02:21.58 | T0mW | maxim I would stay away from if linear has a device |
| 02:22.26 | T0mW | maxim has a great lineup of products, not all are available off the shelf, nor do they produce them for stock |
| 02:22.40 | prpplague | T0mW: digikey carries it |
| 02:22.47 | T0mW | maxim has a 'portfolio' rather than a 'product line' |
| 02:22.51 | prpplague | T0mW: and it takes less external parts |
| 02:23.03 | T0mW | well, if Digikey has it, I would say you are fairly safe |
| 02:23.37 | prpplague | yea that was my guess as well |
| 02:23.44 | T0mW | prpplague: I tend to shy away from maxim, unless they are the only ones that have what I need: e.g. MAX3100 SPI UART |
| 02:23.44 | prpplague | just didn't know if you had a prefered one |
| 02:28.20 | prpplague | T0mW: i don't know why you can only search the libs when you are doing schematics |
| 02:29.18 | T0mW | prpplague: ? |
| 02:29.41 | T0mW | prpplague: you mean you can only search the libs that you've activated in the project, not all libs? |
| 02:30.09 | prpplague | T0mW: no i mean from the control panel, you can't search the libs |
| 02:30.25 | prpplague | T0mW: you can only search the libs when you choose to place something |
| 02:34.34 | T0mW | prpplague: yeah, the librarian is the weakest part of Eagle, has been for as long as I've used it. I use grep in the libdir: e.g. 'grep -i plc * | grep 44' |
| 02:34.55 | prpplague | ahh |
| 02:35.00 | prpplague | T0mW: curious though |
| 02:35.10 | prpplague | T0mW: i'm looking at using a 28-pin plcc |
| 02:35.20 | prpplague | T0mW: can you solder that directly to a pcb? |
| 02:35.27 | prpplague | T0mW: or do you need a socket? |
| 02:39.36 | T0mW | prpplague: problem with plcc is they are 'J' leads. 'J' leads can be soldered but they tend to be difficult to work with if you get a solder bridge, the leads curve under the package |
| 02:39.48 | T0mW | prpplague: 'J' leads are meant to be socketed |
| 02:39.56 | prpplague | yea thats what i thought |
| 02:40.08 | prpplague | but i'm not seeing any sockets listen in the libs for eagle |
| 02:40.21 | T0mW | that's why they curve, to allow for alignment for socket insertion |
| 02:40.50 | prpplague | yea |
| 02:42.04 | T0mW | prpplague: what about 'plcc-socket' library? |
| 02:42.42 | prpplague | hmm, that didn't show up in a search |
| 02:42.42 | T0mW | prpplague: menu 'library | use' and then select the plcc-socket lib, then look in there. |
| 02:43.07 | T0mW | prpplague: 'grep -i socket *' in the lbr dir, it gave me a number of hits |
| 02:44.30 | *** join/#edev FireEgl (i=Atlantic@Atlantica.US) |
| 02:44.34 | prpplague | T0mW: yea its selected, that search in eagle doesn't work very well |
| 02:44.58 | prpplague | T0mW: are the pin outs for those plcc sockets pretty standard? |
| 02:45.40 | T0mW | prpplague: no, there is no "standard", always check the dimensions |
| 02:46.13 | T0mW | prpplague: they attempted to implement "standards" but everyone could think of an "exception" |
| 02:46.51 | T0mW | prpplague: they did standardize on using metric units for the devices, heh |
| 02:47.44 | prpplague | ok but the layout looks to be the same |
| 02:49.03 | prpplague | T0mW: so how do you handle a socket that needs to be connected for a specific device? |
| 02:49.55 | prpplague | T0mW: you do a lib with the socket as the physical, and the device as the schematic portion? |
| 02:51.36 | T0mW | prpplague: 'package' is the physical part that lies on the pcb (layout), 'symbol' is what shows up in the schematic, 'device' is what shows in the library. |
| 02:53.24 | T0mW | prpplague: a 'device' is a set of packages (DIP-8, SO-8, TSSOP-8) that a 'symbol' (logic element) can be inside. For example a 74LS08 can is electrically the same device but comes in different packages: DIP, SO, TSSOP, etc. |
| 02:53.46 | prpplague | T0mW: right |
| 02:54.19 | prpplague | T0mW: so my device will be a symbol for the SL811HS but, the package is a 28pin plcc socket |
| 02:55.07 | T0mW | prpplague: BUT! They all use the same schematic symbol, just different packages, the 'device' allows you to re-use the name '74LS08' with the same schematic 'symbol' but to assign different 'packages' to that 'symbol' and what the wiring is from the 'symbol' pins to the that peculiar 'package' pinout. |
| 02:55.38 | T0mW | prpplague: note the work 'peculiar'? |
| 02:57.14 | T0mW | prpplague: it is not necessary to create a new device for each package. But, you can do that if you want. If you notice, some of the libary devices have different footprint (package) choices? That is what I'm referring to . |
| 02:57.49 | T0mW | prpplague: they call that a 'package variant' |
| 02:59.14 | prpplague | T0mW: yea, since the SL811HS isn't available in the lib, what i would do is do a symbol for the SL811HS then connect it to a plcc socket package, and then label it as my SL811HS device |
| 02:59.40 | prpplague | T0mW: optionally i could add the qfp package to the device as well and use the same symbol |
| 03:00.09 | prpplague | T0mW: since its available is qfp-48 or plcc-28 |
| 03:00.14 | prpplague | s/is/in |
| 03:01.14 | prpplague | T0mW: i think i have 95% of my plan together |
| 03:01.22 | prpplague | T0mW: just a matter of actually doing the boards now |
| 03:01.56 | prpplague | T0mW: oh btw, who do you recommend for doing my first pcbs? and do they have a posted DRC guides? |
| 03:02.04 | T0mW | correct, |
| 03:02.29 | T0mW | prpplague: how many boards, what size, and who is going to see them? |
| 03:03.14 | CP|Home | it breaks my brain that Pee-wee's Playhouse is on adult swim |
| 03:03.15 | prpplague | T0mW: 3-5. max size for eagle light is 100mm x 80mm iirc , and just me and the elinux.org wiki, hehe |
| 03:03.24 | prpplague | CP|Home: hehe |
| 03:03.41 | T0mW | prpplague: I can get 3, top quality boards, double-sided, that I would be proud to show anyone, from 4pcb.com |
| 03:03.56 | prpplague | T0mW: what about pcbexpress.com? |
| 03:04.22 | T0mW | prpplague: 4pcb.com charges $33 regardless of the size, up to 30 sq inches per board (IIRC). |
| 03:04.38 | prpplague | T0mW: every time i think about send of for some boards, my heart skips a beat due to stress |
| 03:05.05 | T0mW | prpplague: for price, on smaller boards, when I want 10+ boards, I use http://www.pcbnet.com/ |
| 03:05.12 | prpplague | http://www.4pcb.com/500free.htm |
| 03:05.33 | T0mW | prpplague: their quality is not on par with 4pcb, but they are cheap and do a fairly good job (not excellent, but good). |
| 03:06.51 | T0mW | prpplague: well, that is a nice offer, I would like to go into that offer needing about 30..40 boards of substantial size to take advantage of their freebie. Everyone, everyone offers a new customer freebie |
| 03:08.17 | T0mW | heh |
| 03:08.39 | prpplague | T0mW: hmm, i'm having trouble parsing all of their guidelines |
| 03:08.40 | T0mW | prpplague: I'm doing some php coding tonight, time to cleanup openhardware.net |
| 03:08.49 | T0mW | prpplague: make it look like openzipit.org |
| 03:08.50 | prpplague | T0mW: ok, i need ot be in bed |

| 03:09.05 | T0mW | heh |
| 03:09.06 | prpplague | T0mW: i actually was and had to get up to check the specks of that chip |
| 03:09.20 | prpplague | CP|Home: php none the less |
| 03:09.38 | T0mW | prpplague: sometimes a man just has to do what a man has to do |
| 03:09.46 | T0mW | :P |
| 03:10.00 | CP|Home | oh, well - I'll be there in time to drink Intel's beer |
| 03:10.01 | T0mW | I like coding in php for websites |
| 03:10.06 | CP|Home | and really - isn't that all anybody wants? |
| 03:10.21 | T0mW | "not I", said /me |

| 14:51.34 | jbevren | 600mhz arm9 |
| 14:52.21 | gandhijee | hmm, they use the IOP's |
| 14:53.04 | jbevren | so, find out where those are defined |
| 14:53.07 | gandhijee | but IIRC, the PCI bus implementation for the Xscale I-series is all the same |
| 14:53.13 | jbevren | if theyre defined in a header, find out what includes the header :) |
| 14:53.19 | gandhijee | ok |
| 14:53.45 | jbevren | yeah, hardware-specific bridge support aside, pci works in arm afaik |
| 14:53.51 | prpplague | hmm |
| 14:54.31 | gandhijee | ? |
| 14:54.39 | jbevren | shh, he's thinking |
| 14:54.42 | jbevren | hehe |

| 14:56.13 | gandhijee | no worries |
| 14:57.24 | prpplague | jbevren: digikey has the parts listed but are non-stock items |

| 15:02.46 | prpplague | jbevren: if used a pcmcia slot we could then use a pcmcia to cf card adapter for hacking |
| 15:04.44 | jbevren | prpplague: is that extender pcmcia or cf? |
| 15:05.20 | prpplague | pcmcia |
| 15:11.59 | prpplague | jbevren: hmm |
| 15:12.15 | prpplague | jbevren: hehe, maybe i should just use a big .1" card edge, hehe |

| 15:24.23 | jbevren | looks like an isa slot |
| 15:24.46 | prpplague | jbevren: yea |
| 15:25.40 | jbevren | I have a 6slot passive isa backplane ;_) |
| 15:26.01 | prpplague | jbevren: hehe |
| 15:26.32 | prpplague | you know whats funny, everyone seems to carry the pcmcia female connector, but no one has breakout boards |
| 15:26.48 | prpplague | everyone seems to carry the cf breakout boards, but no female cf connector |

| 15:48.54 | jbevren | prpplague: hrm. it'd be neat to have a semi-compatible isa bus on the pixter ;-) |
| 15:50.03 | jbevren | with the multiple nCS lines, it'd be fairly simple to implement the IO and memory namespaces too |
| 15:50.29 | jbevren | the only real issue is the 14mhz speed limit :P |

| 16:02.41 | flyback | what? |
| 16:02.42 | prpplague | flyback: that has nothing to do with embedded systems |
| 16:02.48 | jbevren | prpplague: you stole my picture :) |
| 16:02.49 | flyback | actually it does |
| 16:02.59 | prpplague | jbevren: hehe i did |
| 16:03.25 | flyback | it means embedded systems can transistion to newer buses while not losing investement in legacy gear |
| 16:03.34 | flyback | exactely why I pasted it |
| 16:04.21 | prpplague | flyback: which you weren't suppose to do in the first place |
| 16:04.35 | flyback | oh yeah, whoops |
| 16:04.59 | prpplague | jbevren: yea it was good pic so i used it |
| 16:05.48 | jbevren | that was taken with a coolpix 4100 in direct sunlight fyi |

| 16:07.40 | jbevren | I need to get a floodlamp or two for taking those photos heh |
| 16:08.00 | prpplague | i want to get one of those intel usb microscopes |
| 16:08.32 | jbevren | hmm |
| 16:08.40 | jbevren | wonder if they ever worked out how ot use those in linux |
| 16:08.50 | prpplague | jbevren: yea |
| 16:08.56 | prpplague | jbevren: they work great |
| 16:09.08 | jbevren | is it just a webcam? |
| 16:09.31 | *** join/#edev FireEgl (i=Atlantic@Atlantica.US) |
| 16:09.33 | prpplague | jbevren: iirc they work with the v4l stuff |
| 16:09.59 | prpplague | jbevren: you can just use something like xawtv to view it |
| 16:10.10 | jbevren | cool |
| 16:10.20 | prpplague | so you can record or do snapshots |
| 16:10.30 | prpplague | i'd be using it to take pics of pcbs |
| 16:10.57 | prpplague | i totally feel like @#$@#$@ |
| 16:13.28 | prpplague | jbevren: if i do a board with the nor flash, SL811HS(usb), sd/mmc slot, and a uart, you think that would be plenty? |
| 16:13.44 | jbevren | I believe so |
| 16:14.06 | jbevren | is the sl811hs usb high-speed? |
| 16:14.19 | jbevren | (guessing by the HS in the part number) |
| 16:14.23 | prpplague | jbevren: its 1.1 compat |
| 16:14.30 | prpplague | jbevren: HostSlave |
| 16:14.31 | jbevren | ah, fullspeed |
| 16:14.33 | jbevren | ok |
| 16:14.40 | jbevren | doesnt matter much, I was just curious |
| 16:14.52 | jbevren | I'll stick one of my old FS hubs on it :) |
| 16:15.18 | prpplague | hehe |
| 16:15.24 | prpplague | self powered i hope |
| 16:17.00 | prpplague | jbevren: there are just so many things i could do with the pixter-mm |
| 16:17.01 | jbevren | nothing a 5vdc booster wont fix :) |
| 16:17.27 | prpplague | jbevren: i thought about doing a small board, with a x8 128k plcc chip and just a uart |
| 16:17.38 | jbevren | prpplague: I'd also like a simpler device with NOR bootflash, bluetooth radio on rs232, and sd/mmc storage :) |
| 16:17.47 | prpplague | jbevren: just enough to bring it up and be some sort of remote display |
| 16:17.56 | jbevren | yeah |
| 16:18.10 | CosmicPenguin | blueetooh! |
| 16:18.18 | CosmicPenguin | yeah - you heard me |
| 16:18.25 | prpplague | jbevren: well for the BT you can just use a usb dongle |
| 16:18.30 | jbevren | prpplague: true |
| 16:18.31 | prpplague | jbevren: they are cheaper |
| 16:22.37 | jbevren | prpplague: I was hoping to save the ram normally used by the bluetooth stack and tools though ;-) |
| 16:22.54 | prpplague | ahh true |
| 16:26.17 | jbevren | if I get a bluesmirf (or so), it can handle the stack.. all I need to do after that is talk rs232 |

| 18:53.23 | prpplague | jbevren: yea, just setup some very basic serial commands |
| 18:53.48 | prpplague | jbevren: would be easy for hobbyists to intergrate with a uart |
| 18:55.03 | prpplague | i was thinking a little more low level, i.e. connecting up a atmega128 |
