    5-DRV8825 Questions

    Apart from full stepping & the special case of half-step overdrive mode that some stepper drivers will offer, microstepping count should have a minimal impact on final torque. For a spinning stepper motor (i.e. not stalled!), the biggest factor will be supply voltage - as the motor spins faster...

    uploading hex file via teensy loader

    C:\Users\Marc>echo portlabel=hid#vid_16c0&pid_0478 portlabel=hid#vid_16c0 'pid_0478' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file. You will need to escape that string before running it as a Windows command - the & symbol must be prefixed with a ^...

    Stereo guitar/bass cabinet emulation

    I followed Steve's suggestions and I'm now getting better results out of my TGA mkII board. Doing the offset calibration after a few minutes did the trick. I'm running into a few compile issues with the Arduino versions; I might give up on it and switch to PlatformIO, at least for this project Marc

    Stereo guitar/bass cabinet emulation

    Yes, I'm using your library While doing the calibration eliminates the DC offset from the I2S input, however if you feed it with a full scale signal, you'll see that it begins to clip much sooner than it should on one side. I'll try the test program & report results shortly Marc

    Stereo guitar/bass cabinet emulation

    One major problem I see with the WM8731 is high DC offset that seems to originate from the internal gain stage. This directly impacts the ADC dynamic range to an unusable level, as the signal will clip on the affected side no matter how the HPF is configured. I have 3 of these chips, and the...

    Disabling program mode when using more than one Teensy?

    I remember accidentally causing the reverse of this - I could only program the lone Teensy by pushing the program button, even though USB was working fine I did this by changing the PRODUCT_ID value in usb_desc.h to a low value like 0x0001 Marc

    Choose pullup resistor ohms

    As mentioned previously, the DSE registers are used to control GPIO drive strength; this is typically used to curb EMI issues associated with fast signal transitions. Lowering the drive strength is roughly equivalent to having a series resistor between the GPIO pin & connected load. Pull-up/pull...

    USB isolator solution for Teensy 4.0 (vs T3.6)

    I ran into a similar issue with USB to RJ45 extenders, here's what I found: T3.x are USB Full Speed devices (12Mbps), whereas T4.x are High Speed by default (480Mbps) - those rates are bitstream rates, i.e. even if the usage data rate is low, the line encoding will always result in the specified...

    Well duh, the Teensy 3.6 is NOT 5v tolerant

    I think it would make more sense for Paul & the PJRC staff to focus their limited development resources into the core products, the Teensies (is it ok to pluralize them?) Given the relatively open nature of their products, nothing prevents a willing 3rd party to create & sell such a protection...

    16bit gamma correction on Teensy not working as expected

    I just had to check for myself - indeed PROGMEM doesn't do anything on the Teensy: #define PROGMEM, and pgm_read_byte() is simply doing a reference cast to make it compatible with Arduino: #define pgm_read_byte(addr) (*(const unsigned char *)(addr)) Declaring strings & arrays with PROGMEM is...

    16bit gamma correction on Teensy not working as expected

    In the Adafruit article, they are using a PROGMEM array (const uint8_t PROGMEM gamma8[] = {...), therefore it must be referenced as such: strip.setPixelColor(pixelNumber, pgm_read_byte(&gamma8[red]), pgm_read_byte(&gamma8[green]), pgm_read_byte(&gamma8[blue])); However, with the Teensy...

    Help with joystick

    Alright, I understand - I'm willing to help, but I would like to understand your goal with this project.

    Help with joystick

    There are a couple of issues here, but your main problem is probably caused by bad centering of the X/Y analog axis - you need to ensure that the values are as close to 512 when the joystick is centered for control assignment to work properly in Retropie Here are a few more suggestions: -You...

    Help on connecting an I2C MPRLS pressure sensor from Adafruit

    Multiple I2c Teensy 3.5

    If I understand correctly, you want read sensors connected to pins 37 (SCL1) & 38 (SDA1)? All you need to do is replace instances of "Wire" with "Wire1": (sample code shamelessly stolen from examples) #include <Wire.h> void setup() { Wire1.begin(); } byte val = 0; void loop() {...

    Good way to make a teensy based electric piano

    LM4040 external reference with Teensy 3.2

    I dug this out of a project that uses a single pot for menu navigation. Since this is on a Teensy LC there's no separate AGND, and the hot side of the 20k pot is connected to 3v3. It's pretty immune from supply noises, no cap needed in my use case. If I needed more that a few pots I would turn...

    Phase shift measurement with Tennsy 3.6

    Headphone Jack Question for Audio Build.

    According to the SGTL5000 datasheet, output impedance is ~320ohm, therefore I don't think the chip would be damaged. You could always add a resistor between the line outs & the jack, but if I were you I would add a dedicated headphone jack (line out is really not that loud with headphones) Make...

    LM4040 external reference with Teensy 3.2

    I would recommend you stick to 3v3 instead of using an external reference; normally, the ripple should affect both the ADC inputs and VREF at the same time, cancelling each other nicely (in theory!) With a few tricks you can pull this off almost entirely in software: -The ADC library allows you...

    noob question about analog input with high resistance

    Another way to mitigate issues with large input impedance is to read the same pin multiple times to a dummy variable, while keeping only the last value. This allows the s&h cap to charge up properly. How many times depends largely on the ratio between the actual and optimal input impedance; for...

    Anti Alias filters on SGTL5000

    If you have access to a suitable signal generator, you can test the performance (or presence) of the aa filter by injecting a signal above the nyquist freq. The signal will appear as a folded image reflected at the nyqyist point, i.e. 32khz signal should show up as a 10khz spike, along with some...

I use another Win7 computer that doesn't have this issue, which seems to confirm that this issue is cause by the recent...

    High-Frequency High-Accuracy Photodiode with Teensy 3.2?

    Are you connecting the BPW34 directly to an analog pin? Unless you go with the S-6468 (which is a 5v device, btw), you would need a buffer op-amp with a very high input impedance (j-fet such as a TL072 or better). Use a clean supply for the op-amp - the onboard 3.3v supply may do with proper...
