Arduino Uno R3 graphics accelerator shield uses no pins
Hello and welcome to another in my series of unique hardware projects designed to bring you something useful that you’ve hopefully never seen before and at a price point that any hobbyist can afford....
View ArticleModding the STM32 F4 Discovery with a 25MHz clock
In this article I’m going to show you how to do a straightforward modification to the STM32 F4 Discovery board that will change the onboard oscillator from 8MHz to 25MHz. Why do this Probably the main...
View ArticleFrom zero to a C++ STM32 development environment
It’s been a while since I wrote an article about my stm32plus C++ library for the STM32 series of MCUs so I thought I’d combine a long overdue catchup with a step-by-step tutorial that will show you...
View ArticleA development board for the STM32F042 TSSOP package
It’s been a while since I posted a new article, a delay at least partly due to me herniating a disc in my neck which left me completely unable to look downwards for any length of time and as you’ll...
View ArticleUSB HID device development on the STM32 F042
The STM23 F042 series is ST’s cheapest route into USB device programming for the F0 series of STM32 microcontrollers. In hacker-friendly units of one you can buy an STM32F042F6P6 (48Mhz, 32Kb flash,...
View ArticleNanocounter is an accurate frequency counter using an FPGA, STM32 and a...
Here we have a good example of how a requirement for a simple tool spirals out of control and spawns a project that takes months to complete and ends up dwarfing the project that it was originally...
View ArticleDirectly driving a 7-segment LED display with the STM32
Seven segment LEDs are an extremely cost effective way to add a large, bright and very readable numeric display to your project. Displays similar to the one pictured above can be had for as little as...
View ArticleA development board for an STM32G081 MCU
I’ve been an avid user of ST’s F0 series ever since it was launched. The 48MHz Cortex M0 is almost always the perfect MCU for every project that I tend to build and it’s so easy to program and debug...
View ArticleA USB microphone for online meetings
Here in the UK the new reality of working in the IT business over the past year has been that we’re all at home working remotely over virtual desktop connections and for someone engaged in software...
View ArticleFixing the USB microphone mute button click
In my previous article I documented the design and build process of my USB microphone based around an STM32F446 MCU. If you haven’t already read it then it’s probably worth catching up now before...
