Sigrok officially supports BugLogic3!
| April 20, 2012 | Posted by bonzo under Bug Logic |
I am very proud to announce that the folks at Sigrok v0.3 just released a new version of Sigrok that relies on the open source firmware fx2lafw. Sigrok now rely completely on fx2lafw to support all FX2 based devices. This should reduce the complexity in enabling the open driver+firmware. That means that now there are…
XMote2 PCB for Arduino FIO with FreeIMU
| December 18, 2011 | Tutorials |
Here’s my last batch of XMote boards: The board is essentially identical to the XMote1 with the addition of a FreeIMU connector on top, the other connectors allow the user to connect the excellent groove sensors from Seedstudio. If you want to build a wireless inertial sensor this is the way to go!
Test robo 4 wd arduino
| November 20, 2011 | Norduino Sw |
This video shows my recent development with the tiny 4WD robot. I have used a spare Pinnacle IR remote which supports RC6 a very good protocol for IR transmission. Any direction I can select 2 speeds but I need to find a way to add a proportional speed control to make more accurate turns. I…
RFID reader with Norduino
| November 9, 2011 | Norduino Sw |
I have got a module from JSXZLZ.com which reads RFID tags of the 125kHz type and I thought is going to be very educational to write a simple demo for the Norduino + Teensy. So what I did was to connect the module to a Norduino with GND, PWR and RX.Make sure you connect the…
Norduino Wireless Mouse
| October 21, 2011 | Norduino Hardware |
This is a very simple implementation of a wireless inertial mouse. The Norduino board is fitted with a GravityPlug and a BlinkPlug from Jeelab: that allows the sampling of the 3D gravity vector as well as 2 button presses. The Teensy on the host computer is adapted with a Nordic module via the Norduino adapter…

Hello guys, as we say in Italy, we have got 2 pigeons with 1 seed. I want to show you what I have been working so hard day and night, the fantastic ………. XMoteee … round of applause! The core behind this platform is the not very well exploited Arduino FIO which has a nice…
MspNode is born
| October 13, 2011 | Posted by bonzo under MSPNode |
The official MSPNode project has been released on the wiki page, it was a concentrated effort of SimpleAVR and JeelabsAndy on the Jeelabs forum. My roles was essentially testing and electronic layout development. The idea is to produce some kit for people to play with. The MSPNode is a cheap low power sensor board based…
Norduino USB finally is ready!
| October 12, 2011 | Posted by bonzo under Norduino Hardware |
Yes I managed to prototype and test my adapter boards for the Teensy2 and Teensy2++. Now the chain is complete, I have got Norduino sensor boards and Norduino USB adapter: think about of all the possible applications. First of all is all arduino code based, secondly you can run on the host computer USB Serial,…
MiniDspNode tutorial 3
| September 27, 2011 | Posted by bonzo under MiniDspNode, Tutorials |
In this tutorial, I want to show you how easily is to interface a MiniDspNode with the Sparkfun keyfob thanks to the Nordic RF chip. The MiniDspNode is based on the MSP430F2011 chip from TI and the Nordic NRF24L01 which is the same used on the Sparkfun Nordic keyfob. All we need to do is to…
