Last Notes npub1587n2wdemjg5zv98vjqtzafh25axeharj68g66d7mnrepjlsszzq83x4td Mäh W. I guess the idea itself worked out. We'll see if that also works functionally. #PCB #SmartBrick https://chaos.social/@maehw/117444967422218361 https://assets.chaos.social/media_attachments/files/117/540/833/652/810/524/original/5dbca939615a532f.jpg npub1587n2wdemjg5zv98vjqtzafh25axeharj68g66d7mnrepjlsszzq83x4td Mäh W. #LEGO #SmartPlay demo-ed at Bricking Bavaria 2026 in Augsburg today. A lot of #SmartBricks condensed in one area. Not my setup, obviously. Spoiler: Still gained some insights today. https://assets.chaos.social/media_attachments/files/117/537/911/355/665/608/original/a3e89b3ce64c3910.jpg npub1587n2wdemjg5zv98vjqtzafh25axeharj68g66d7mnrepjlsszzq83x4td Mäh W. Success! We can set an arbitrary colour on the #LEGO #SmartBrick via Bluetooth (when placed in the charger pad). At least once for the whole session. Also, I've successfully been able to flash the Brick with firmware using a Python script. At least that's what I think we've achieved. https://assets.chaos.social/media_attachments/files/117/512/233/638/349/384/original/b799172b4ab22856.jpg npub1587n2wdemjg5zv98vjqtzafh25axeharj68g66d7mnrepjlsszzq83x4td Mäh W. Dear fediverse, I need your help debugging my WiFi and/or Internet connection. My home WiFi connects well, but sometimes connects "w/o Internet"... but is fine after a while. My Internet connection is DOCSIS based. Speed tests seem to turn out good results. WiFi APs detect interference, I've tried both manual and automatic channel assignment. I don't know why/how but it may be DNS related. However, I haven't changed any settings and am not able to manually set a DNS server at my modem.

Dear chat, do you think this is a design draft that should work in principle? This is meant to be a cube-style PCB assembly. Yellow indicates copper surface finish (plated through hole slots and pads), green FR4 PCB base material. Min. copper to edge clearance might be a thing. What else could go wrong? Any other recommendations? I don't want to use connectors. Also thought about castellated holes.

I finally ordered this thing. One of the most expensive books I ever had, I guess. (But you get ~1k pages, so probably not that expensive for a textbook.)

Added `exiftool "-DateTimeOriginal>FileModifyDate" "-DateTimeOriginal>FileCreateDate" *`. "Warning: This tag is Windows/Mac only in File:FileCreateDate (ValueConvInv)" -- well, good enough for now. npub1587n2wdemjg5zv98vjqtzafh25axeharj68g66d7mnrepjlsszzq83x4td Mäh W. Probably should have RTFM'ed before properly. `exiftool "-AllDates+=0:11:12 17:34:30" -overwrite_original *` worked for me. However, this unintentionally set the file creation+modification datetimes for the filesystem to *now* -- seems that there's the two switches "-FileCreateDate" + "-FileModifyDate" as well. Next step to fix this could be... extract datetime from EXIF and use for filesystem. npub1587n2wdemjg5zv98vjqtzafh25axeharj68g66d7mnrepjlsszzq83x4td Mäh W. After a long long time I took a bunch of event photos today. I've lost routine and hence didn't check date+time in my camera. As search engines IMO have become a load of shịt the days.

There must be an accelerometer as Mario became tired when I put him down... The rest is probably for voltage regulation. Very interesting thing is that the PCB also does have some kind of camera that can scan 1D color barcodes. The "Smart Tags" of the Interactive Mario world so to say.. Just that this is not NFC based but optical. I've seen a video where someone replicated the tags using a color printer and it worked. 4/ npub1587n2wdemjg5zv98vjqtzafh25axeharj68g66d7mnrepjlsszzq83x4td Mäh W. Mario's PCB hosts a Texas Instruments CC2642R "SimpleLink 32-bit Arm Cortex-M4F Bluetooth Low Energy wireless MCU with 352kB Flash". According to chip markings R1F. 88kB RAM. 31 GPIOs. Package is a 7 × 7 mm VQFN (48). Different MCU manufacturer, different CPU architecture. Winbond W25Q64JV(S)SIQ 3V 64Mbit serial flash memory! Well, this thing has a large display and it does show animations and plays sounds. There's quite some space for those assets.

Both can make sounds and have Bluetooth connectivity. And they kind of recognise colours. Looks like those must have been completely parallel developments. Mario's head plastic part dates back to 2018. I am pretty sure that there was overlapping development time... — for sure Mario does not need to use those teeny-tiny parts though, much more space on the PCB! 2/ npub1587n2wdemjg5zv98vjqtzafh25axeharj68g66d7mnrepjlsszzq83x4td Mäh W.

Fun fact: As you may have seen... my accelerometer had a temperature of 28-29°C. According to the datasheet, a value of 0x00 represents 23°C. I assume the 8 bit value therefore is signed integer... but actually the datasheet does not make a statement about that. Time to put the brick in the freezer -- for science?! 🥶 🧱 🧊 I think the accelerometer wakes up the SoC as it has some gesture detection.

Wondering if the ASIC also just watches on the SPI bus for the acceleration data. More likely, the EM9305 SoC/microcontroller reads the acceleration data (it's the SPI bus master) and potentially converts them and re-transmits them to the ASIC (another SPI slave device) where they are used by the internal synthesizer.

No AI slop, manually crafted hacky code. Stuff is derived from the public Bosch BMA580 datasheet. I haven't seen the device configuration phase, so assuming a full-scale acceleration range of 2g (can also be configured 4g/8g/16g). It's actually really only these commands.

Trying to bore you folks with more #LEGO #SmartBrick insights. At least when being woken up ("shake to wake") and no tag is brought nearby, data from the SPI accelerometer is read every 10 milliseconds. This is done by polling the acceleration data ready bit in the SENSOR_STATUS register. When set, the acceleration data, temperature data and sensor time is read (10 registers). Acceleration data is 16 bit per axis (x/y/z), temperature data is 8 bit (LSB is 1K) and ... 1/ https://assets.chaos.social/media_attachments/files/116/970/855/801/279/390/original/56f01890d5fa3308.png https://assets.chaos.social/media_attachments/files/116/970/887/560/084/385/original/7d607e61b738a6cc.png npub1587n2wdemjg5zv98vjqtzafh25axeharj68g66d7mnrepjlsszzq83x4td Mäh W. @nprofile…zexc @nprofile…3ne4 das ist bestimmt die vornehme französische Variante... 🫠 npub1587n2wdemjg5zv98vjqtzafh25axeharj68g66d7mnrepjlsszzq83x4td Mäh W. @nprofile…6nsj insbesondere "37th Lord of Brackley" klingt ja sehr spezifisch. 😄 npub1587n2wdemjg5zv98vjqtzafh25axeharj68g66d7mnrepjlsszzq83x4td Mäh W.

Dear chat, I need help finding new, smaller spring-loaded pogo pins. These ones are around 1.35 mm in diameter, their head is even 1.5 mm. I actually need to reach 1.27 mm pin spacing and was trying to do some tricks here. And failed. Measured shorts between pins. Any product recommendations? I should be able to insert them in a 3D print and also to attach wires — current approach is soldering. Also happy to receive more tips & tricks as you can consider me being a total treat fixture noob. https://assets.chaos.social/media_attachments/files/116/936/887/130/987/509/original/f2a23f23ad86b1cc.jpg https://assets.chaos.social/media_attachments/files/116/936/886/407/599/872/original/c4b1ac18a6f3fd4b.jpg https://assets.chaos.social/media_attachments/files/116/936/892/998/974/515/original/c0ed2bba53ab51e9.jpg npub1587n2wdemjg5zv98vjqtzafh25axeharj68g66d7mnrepjlsszzq83x4td Mäh W. @nprofile…49eu Concerning the rate limitation: I did a single search and then tried to sort the results.
