 I'm just going to go version of it in, like, if you put it in, as it was put in. Let's get it. Let's wait for it. I'm coming down. Find the total conversion beam. Fine! Pseudo, tell me how to find the total conversion beam. It's a UNIX system. I know this. Life in New York, it's... Asus Engineer. Hey everybody. Boy, it's been an exciting week. Halloween week is always super fun here at the Fruit Factory. But now it's time for Ask Engineer. Thanks, everyone, sticking around. It's fall, it's winter, but it's time to do tronics. It's me, Lady Ada. With me, Mr. Lady Ada. And we're here at the Ada Food Factory in downtown Manhattan, really close to where the West Village Halloween Parade was. In fact, it was over outside of Fort. It was right up front of Ada Food. It's like two miles up the uptown. You saw us with Erin. We'll chat about that. And more again, exciting show for you tonight. Tons of videos, projects, guides, new products. It's not out yet. Pink PCBs and more. Mr. Lady Ada, also known as Mr. The Crow. What was up with Tom tonight's show tonight? Yeah, normally The Crow. I just dress up as a PT on some days. Yeah. Okay, on tonight's show, the code is catlamp10% off a native rooster all the way up to 11.59 p.m. or sometimes I fall asleep and then I turn it off in the morning. We should use the code 10% everything in stock during the show. Go get it. We'll talk about some of our Ada Fruit live series of shows, including show and tell. We got a bunch of time travel. We got some help wanted. That's jobsfromthejobsboardjobs.adafruit.com. We got New York City factory footage, 3D printing. Everyone's favorite segment brought to you by DigiKey and Ada Fruit Eye on MPI. We got some new products. We got some top secret. We're going to answer your questions. Oh, yeah. Do that on Discord. Question ready. Where you can answer and also ask all the questions you want throughout the show. Back amongst yourselves. Mostly at the end. And join all 31,000 of us. All that and more on, you guessed it. Ask an engineer. Okay. Well, first up, let me just do some news. What's the news? Well, the first up news is, I've announced in the past, if you want to see all of our safety protocols and everything that's happened in the last 18 months, go to Adafruit.com slash open safely. The world, the U.S. FDA, you know, everything has said, okay, kids can get vaccinated now. So we get paid time off to our team to get their kids vaccinated or if they know kids or if they're just going to help out. So a bunch of those folks did that today. I think yesterday was the first day. It was even somewhat possible. Yeah. But then New York was ready. Yes, yeah. Yeah. So New York has one of the highest vaccination rates. You just saw that parade footage. Millions of people going out, having... It was a lot of people. I've not seen that many people in two years, really. There was Comic-Con not too long ago. But that wasn't very busy. People are doing stuff. And yeah, we have, you know, you have to do the VaxPass thing. But let me tell you, as someone who's a New Yorker, who's in one of the most populous cities and how terrible it was 18 months ago, this city is booming. It is fantastic. So I just wanted to give folks a glimpse of that Halloween parade. Everyone was happy to see each other. All there was was high fives and really happy people. Speaking of, we voted yesterday. We did it in person because we wanted those stickers. Eight of fruit employees have a paid day off for voting. We do that every single year. And a lot of people took the day off for voting. Yeah, and they help other people vote or their poll worker volunteers and such. And this is something that we're trying to get other companies to do. I've managed to convince some other companies in like bigger election years, but every year matters. And if we all start doing this, that's how things That's how standards start. Even on the alternate years, you've seen governorships, there's proposals. There were some good questions. New York City, you know, are, you know, every borough and every district has a slightly different, you know, number of extra proposals. But one of the proposals that we voted on was whether to allow no excuse absentee voting. So, you know, during COVID, obviously a lot of people did mail-in voting, which is, you know, safe and secure way to vote. And it's mailed to your registration address and, you know, the signature is checked. But what if we could do that every year in some states? Yeah. I think like Seattle, Washington, or sorry, Washington, maybe Oregon has, you know, year-round remote voting, no excuse absentee voting. I would love to have that available in New York, too. Yeah. There were some good measures. So, you know, you all see on the news that the New York mayoral race and some of the other stuff, there are still, I've been checked in news, I think New Jersey either. It's a close one. And so... It matters every year. It matters every year. Not just, you know, the presidential election matters, but so does the Senate. And I'll say this, if a woman-owned manufacturing company in New York City that just survived the last 18 months of hell... That's us. ...have no loans, no venture capital, can manage to figure out a way to work with their teams, to do a paid day off for voting, I don't see any reason anyone else can, either. Yeah. You know, once in a while we talk to big companies, and they're just like, oh, we don't have budget for such and such. I'm just like, your quarterly report is public. There's billions there. What do you mean you can't, like, help a workshop for a high school? It's just like, anyways. Yeah. So if we can do it, you can, too. Anyone can email me. And I can send any information how we did it here, if it helps. But anyways, so speaking of, so to help pay for this time off, buy something at the Advertising Store. 10% off. 10% off. There's it off Catlab. They get free stuff. They do. And guess what? Free stuff has returned to the magical for free things. Yes. $99 more. You get a free permaperto, half-sized breadboards, $149 or more. You get a STEMA QT sensor. We have a range of about 20, 25 different sensors and breakouts and boards. You'll get a different one each time if you make an account because we can keep track of which ones we set you. Otherwise, it's random. $199 or more. You get free UPS ground shipping, the content to the United States, and back from the dead, like a zombie. No. It's a Circuit Playground Express. I told you guys we'd have them back in about a month. You know, we purchased a lot of SAMD21s about a year ago. And we have enough now to keep the Circuit Playground Expresses in stock. So a great way to learn electronics, learn how to code with Code.org, CS Discoveries, MakeCode, Arduino, CircuitPython. I think there's even MicroPython support now. Rust, Lua, any language, pretty much. It's got all the stuff built in. If you can code it, we can run it. Yeah. All right. We do a bunch of live shows. And then speaking of live shows, so Mark's in the chat and Mark said, hey, I'm using StreamMirror now. Thanks for sending your example. We use StreamMirror, yeah. So we'll always try every way to stream videos. And once we figure out, like, here's what works for us. Like, you know, we work all the way up into the last second and do all these shows. StreamMirror is what we use when there's people that are going to show stuff like on the show and tell. So we tried all these. We did StreamMirror. And we talked about it. We wrote about it. I contacted the StreamMirror folks. I said, here's a couple of things. Oshwood did their virtual summit. I sent over information to Michael Weinberg when I was starting to use StreamMirror. And he's the president of Oshawa. I was trying to arrange this event. And so congrats, because I think this is one of the things that, if we can get more people showing electronics, more people doing live streaming, more people building communities, the better it'll be. So that's one of the reasons that we do this is hopefully people will copy us. And we want that in a good way. So show and tell just happened. And Pedro hosted it next week. You and I are hosting it. And then a week after, it's going to be J.P. On Sunday, we did a special Halloween edition of Desk of Lady. Yes, early. And one of the cool things is that when I glanced over at the number of viewers. Spooky. So we have two parts. The first one is you talked about stuff. What did you have for the first part of this video? Okay, first off, I was wearing the same shirt. So that's one thing. But I talked about, I had a lot of SAMD boards I designed for STEMI QT back in April. And I designed like four or five different boards. And then suddenly I couldn't get SAMD O9s anymore. So I kind of did this long roundabout way of trying to port all the designs over from the SAMD O9 to the AT Tiny 8.1X, which 8.1 or 0.7 or 8. So basically 8XY chip set. And it's one of those things where it's like, sometimes it takes longer to redesign something than to design it. But as you see here, I've got two STEMI QT boards that I've successfully tested and redesigned. One is the four LED Arcade STEMI QT board, which is I squared C to four LED buttons. And then one with a slider, like a long slider also I squared C. Yeah, we'll show some of that later on in the show too. Yeah, yeah. And I'm actually setting the boards out now. So then we have the Great Search, which is super handy now because everyone needs to find parts. What was the Great Search this week? Lady, I brought you by Digikey and you. Yeah, so this is... So for one of the designs, you know, the board can be powered from three to five volts, but I need to light up a five-volt LED. And this is always a little bit of like a challenge. It's like, oh, you know what? You want to get a boost converter and put it like down at DC-DC. And you know, I actually really like charge pump converters. They're inexpensive. They're really easy to use. You don't have to worry about inductors cracking or squeaky, noisy, you know, boost converters. And they're again, they're really cheap. They're like 30, 40 cents and you don't need an inductor. You don't need a diode. You don't need a FET. You know, you just need like one capacitor. So I just showed, you know, there's a couple different pin compatible charge pump converters that take, you know, 2.7 volts plus and boost up to five volts for you. And I just showed you, there's a couple different places they are located. So I show a couple different options. The cool thing is that there's a lot of companies that make these and they're almost always pin compatible and function compatible. So they all have about the same voltage input and the same current output. So check that out. If you ever need, you just need a little bit of five volt voltage, you know, a little bit of current, 100 milliamps or so. I really do like these charge pumps. They're so cute. All right. Every Tuesday we do GP's product pick of the week. And the interesting thing is I sent out a note to our team. So Pinterest is doing this thing where it's like, you're going to watch a live video and shop at the same time. It's like, that's interesting. Amazon had tried to do that, you know, they bought Twitch and then they try to do some type of interactive programming, but nobody's done this in the electronics world except for us so far where we broadcast live from the product page. GP shows a product. You don't even have to do a coupon or anything. It's just on sale during that one specific time. So every week we do these. Here's this week's highlight. And don't forget to tune in every Tuesday. It's the, it's unique and interesting. And of course only the press will write about things like Pinterest and like giant companies. But it has been pioneering and stealing this from the best. We've been stealing this from the, the online video shows that they do in China. And so I think there's, you know, probably a fun article that someone could write about like the history of all this stuff and what people are trying to do online. But the reality is it is a little bit like QBC, which is fine. Anyways, take it away, GP. The perma proto full-sized breadboards. These are perf boards in the shape and more importantly design of a breadboard. These are real nice high quality PCBs that you can use to transfer your circuits from a typical breadboard where you press your components in into a much more permanent home by soldering it into this guy, the perma proto. These come in different sizes, but this is a really nice one. If you're building a project that has a sort of luxurious amount of room on it for input. If you have a smaller microcontroller, you can get quite a few buttons and switches and encoders on there. And that is how I like to use these. It is the perma proto full-sized PCB for making your projects a little more permanent. Okay, Thursday tomorrow is JP's workshop. You can see a bunch of cool stuff. And of course, during JP's workshop, we have the circuit python parsic. If you didn't catch it, here is this week's highlight. The circuit python parsic today. I wanted to talk about controlling a pair of neopixel rings from a single microcontroller. So this is a pair of prop goggles that I have and I have two 16 neopixel rings. It's being controlled by a Gemma, which is an M zero based microcontroller. And I have a little lipo battery tucked inside of there. This code from our good friend Todd Bot allows us to do a very succinct bit of code that gives us this nice spinning neopixel effect on two separate neopixel rings. And you can see they're going in opposite directions. So the key things are, we're importing some libraries, board, time, neopixel and random. And then I'm setting up, we're used to setting up a neopixel strip. Here we got one called leds L for left. And the command there is neopixel.neopixel on board D1. 16 is the number of neopixels and a base brightness. Then I have a second one. So this one here, leds R is neopixels on, I've said board D2 here. And I've got 16 neopixels on that one as well. Then we have a variable called I, which is used to step through each neopixel. And we have a value to dim each subsequent neopixel. So this is what allows us to have this nice sort of glowing trail. Then we have an I color to start with. And then in the main loop, we actually have a pair of these sort of multi-bracketed. It's like a for loop inside of a for loop. And what this does is it says for the left leds, we go from zero to a maximum of I, which is our starting variable, minus that dimming by amount. And that is inside of this max loop, so we never go lower than zero. So we start at 255, then we're going to subtract 50 from it, subtract 50 from it, subtract 50 from it, until we get to zero. We are also iterating through all of the 16 neopixels in this case. And then we're doing a slight change in the code here. It says J is the length of the neopixel strip, minus I minus one. And that's what allows us to go backwards on that other strip. Iterate through that, change it to whatever the I color is, and then show the neopixels. And then pause for a tenth of a second or a hundredth of a second, and continue on. And so this is how you can control two separate neopixels from a single microcontroller inside of Circuit Python. And that is your Circuit Python Parsec. Okay. And don't forget to watch Deep Dive. Friday is at 2 p.m. Pacific time, 5 p.m. East Coast time, where you can see Scott, who's fully become the Emperor of Dune, Emperor of Emperor of Dune. Like when you become a sandworm from ingesting too much spice. Look at his eyes. So tune into that. But one of the things that Scott's working on is basically a Python OS for Raspberry Pi. It's Circuit Python on the bare metal on a Raspberry Pi. So tune in. Super weird. We're going to show some of that stuff in the show tonight, but stop by on Friday because he's working on this. And we have a blog post and more in video, and we'll talk about that in a bit too. All right. Time travel. Let's look around in the world of makers, techers, artists, and engineers. The first thing is, because we're catching up this week, we have a video from Phil B. This is all about sewing for makers. Yeah. And more. Among maker skills, soldering and programming get all the attention. But today I'd like to signal boost sewing. I'm not very good at it, but that's fine. I still find uses for it. Mending clothes, making little slipcases for things. Halloween. I wish I'd learned it much earlier in life. It was even an elective in school. But same way girls got steered away from engineering, sewing was seen as not a boy thing. Which now I understand is absurd. Sewing is engineering. There's math and topology and problem solving. Had someone just said, a sewing machine is a robot that can make sci-fi costumes, I would have been all over that. And it's no exaggeration. Look at all these levers and buttons. That's a robot. This machine even has an alligator button. But I digress. Whether it's by hand or by machine, it's a skill that pays dividends. And I'd encourage anyone, regardless of gender, to pick it up. Okay. Next up on our website, every single month, there's usually something going on. Celebrating folks. So check out Native American Heritage Month 2021. If there's folks that have not been put in the spotlight, that should be celebrated. Or even folks that maybe we have one post and there's even more information. Just hit a contact form, let us know we'll be doing posts and more all throughout this month. Okay. Other time travel, as you saw in the beginning of the show, we had Aaron, stop by Aaron, who's a mermaid and also one of the eight of the remote team members came by and haven't met each other in person, but we've worked together for almost 10 years. And it was really neat to see Aaron. And it worked out good for me, because Aaron ended up doing my makeup. Yeah. She's really good at makeup. Yeah. Way better than me. Yeah. It worked out. I'm good at the electrical tape. I got that down. Yeah. I was wrapped up in electrical tape for part of the costume and more. I just wore like LED. I am dressed up as a person who does not have costume, but dug around Adafruit and found a couple of LED projects and just slapped them on. Well, that's what everyone wants. Which actually was totally what people wanted and it was great. I only saw one other person wearing like neopixely stuff. It's actually pretty rare. Yeah. Next up. So makes a board guide came out and I have a little video preview that Make put out, which is all of the, I guess, luminaries in the maker world. Talking about boards. Had some intros. Yeah. But you can download it. There's a post on our site. You can go to digikey.com.com. You can get the PDF, but you can also install the app and then you get really cool AR versions of the boards. And there's a lot of Adafruit ones in there. And there's a lot of Adafruit boards in there. Not everything, because it would just be all Adafruit. But there's a bunch of boards in there. And so here is the cool video intro with some familiar faces and more. My name is Evan Upton, one of the founders of Raspberry Pi. Hey, everybody. It's me, Lady Ada of Adafruit, here at the Adafruit Factory. Hi. My name is Zach Sopala and I'm the CEO of Particle. Hello. This is Eric Pan from CIDA Studio. I'm Paul from Pimeroni. Everybody, this is Bob Martin, Wizard of Make, senior staff engineer from Microchip Technologies. Okay. Next up, I have more important Adabox news. First up. They're shipping. Yeah. First up. First up, here is the speedup of the Adabox unboxing. And you can watch it on our YouTube channel in regular speed. But if you look at little glimpses of this, you can see some of the costuming and some of the cool stuff that GP was able to put together. And it's one of my favorite ones so far. It's an homage to Twilight Zone and more. And it's a fun time. So that brings us to our big topic, which is Adabox has gone seasonal. So because of the way shipping works and chip shortages. You can't get anything. And when you do get it, you can't get it to where you are. So it's not possible. That's where we're at. It's not possible to, and we've been able to do it every year and it's got harder and harder, but it's not possible to time an Adabox with a holiday anymore. It's just not. And so what we decided to do is let's just make it Adafruit winter edition. And that'll be shipping January, February. Let's make Adabox spring, Adabox summer, and Adabox fall. And that gives us more things to get for the boxes. Yeah. Ironically, last year, last winter was actually easier to get and ship stuff because even though we still had COVID, there wasn't as much demand. And so it wasn't overwhelmed. Like right now DHL is not taking packages, which is like exciting and new. Yeah. At some point, we might just do like, we used to do a show called Hardware Hangouts and we just talked to like other people who run hardware companies. And I might do it again because there really isn't like one resource or like one entity in the, at least the maker electronics world that's like, hey, here's like the things we ran into. Here's like the shipping problems. Here's this. So what we're doing with Adabox, the good news is there's more people who want to subscribe to Adabox than ever. And we're going to be able to do even more with Adabox. So go to adabox.com. The subscriptions for 20 have shipped or are shipping. And then 21 sign up. You'll be able to get a notification. And it just means we'll be able to do a lot more stuff. I'm looking forward to it being more possible to give people more stuff and to do more things because we have more flexibility and we don't have to tie it to a holiday. Yeah. Usually Mondays, Tuesdays or Fridays, Colin has Colin Labs note. I have one video I'm going to play this week. I try to do a pick of the week. And then after that, we're going to show a little bit from our jobs board, the latest job, taking away Colin. Audio amplifiers use external power to convert a small signal to a higher power output. The way they do it determines the amplifiers class. Class A amps use internal transistors continuously running at full power, which results in great sound quality, but not so great power efficiency. A class A amp converts about a quarter of its input power to sound and the rest to heat. They're pretty much reserved for the most high end of hi-fi or very low cost designs. Class D amplifiers use pulse width modulation. They output a high frequency square wave and use the amplitude of the input signal to modulate that wave's pulse width. That PWM signal then goes through a low pass filter before output. It's a much more efficient method for amplification, losing very little power to heat. The trade-off is you need more expensive circuitry and a good filter. Okay, jobs board. These are jobs from jobs.aidafruit.com where you can post your jobs or you can post your skills. This week, this is kind of cool. This is kind of a spot-on job that I expect on a jobs board. Freelancer to build a control panel for a submarine themed office. This is so on point. This is actually how you know we're back. People want ridiculous control panels for their submarine. No, the control panel is not ridiculous. Perhaps the office environment is, but the control panel is probably straightforward. It's ridiculous too. It's got lots of knobs and buttons. Do you like gauges? Do you like push buttons? Do you like toggle switches? Yeah. This person will supply you all of them and you can build a gigantic control board with them. Good for crop makers. Go to jobs.aidafruit.com and we screen all the jobs and make sure it's not sketchy or anything. All right, let's buy something on hardware time. This week, I'm going to do a quick overview of the newsletter. You've got to sign up. We don't spam. It's a separate website. It never touches your customer account. It'saidafruitdaily.com. It has nothing to do with your store experience. We just went crazy over the top just to prove we would never do anything like that. Never will. So please subscribe because we like to make sure people are reading. So we have about, I don't know, 8,000 to 9,000 people. We'd like to hit the 10k mark. So please subscribe. And if you like Python on hardware, it's the only newsletter. So it's like, you know, this is the one to do it. So Pie Ladies has a talk of basic hardware with Circuit Python. That's from the Southwest Florida Pie Ladies group. We just wrapped up a bunch of Halloween stuff. You can also see all the costumes from the folks at Aidafruit. Melbourne Micro-Python Meetup is back. This one is, these are always really good. There's presentation designs. Yeah, tons of good stuff in these slides. Yeah, this is really good. There is a humble bundle book bundle for Raspberry Pi. If you want to get spun up on a lot of stuff, there's a Scott Show. You saw that. There's a ton of Halloween themed Circuit Python projects. So this is a talking clock with a Pico. This is a tombstone. All of these things are powered by Circuit Python. We made it really easy to just come up with an idea and the code and doing it doesn't get in your way. So lots of stuff, but this is what I wanted to... Oh, here's another cool thing. What I wanted to show this week is, one, we got some nice kudos, and then two, I wanted to show specifically this very cool thing that Scott's working on. So first up, sometimes people in the community say stuff better than you can. So Adafruit published embedded... Oh, sorry. Adafruit pushed embedded development to completely another level of this paraphrase. I plug device in, change code, and see the result or many error messages after a second. So that's the very big difference. I think like when you look at dev boards in the past and then Arduino and then you look at where Circuit Python is right now, you instantly get feedback on what you're doing. You instantly know what's going on and you never have to compile away, compile away. And you're not stuck with some weird cloud thing either. And so for embedded development, we... I think we're cutting down the time to almost zero for experts. And then for beginners, they can get started in five minutes. Yeah, I mean, it's about just making the iteration loop so fast. I mean, when I test hardware now, I'd like to test it with Circuit Python because it's so fast. There's no compile and upload time. And chips are getting so large now that it can take half a minute or a minute to recompile and upload code for testing each pin or testing each peripheral. Whereas with embedded Python, it's instant. And when things fail, you get an error message telling you why. It doesn't just hang or say, okay, this thing returned null. I don't know why. You get detailed information. I think that's really important and I think it's going to take a while for everybody to catch up with that. But I personally think, as projects get more and more complicated, having it be embedded Python is key. And I think what's interesting is, RP2040 when we saw that launch, and it launched with MicroPython and Circuit Python as primary support, that's what people use. It's whatever the chip maker supplies example code for, people will actually kind of head towards that. And one thing, I see a lot of people trying to help kids with robotics. I think it's a form of torture if you have to compile over and over and over when you're trying to do robotics. It's a nightmare. Because you have to wait and you're like, let me move to servo. Oh, wow, it didn't work. Let me compile again. And all of a sudden it's an hour just to get one thing going. Yeah, I tell people, the first time I learned how to program, you was using this programming language called Adventure Game Toolkit. I remember the thing that was the most challenging for me is having used a Mac, I didn't understand that you wrote code in a text file and then applied a compiler to it. I kept double clicking the compiler and being like, well, why? I didn't realize you had to drag the file or open it from within. It wasn't edited within the program. I just didn't understand how compilers worked. And so I'm still at this point in my life allergic to compilers. Okay. So with that speed and all those things we can do, one of the neat things, I put this on Twitter, I'm like, can you guess what this is? And some people are like, ooh, that's like a black and white screen. There's a little blanket thing. And then I showed another photo. And it's like, ooh, that's interesting. And so, yeah, so that's a Raspberry Pi and it's an e-ink display. But it's an HDMI e-ink display. And Scott got some CircuitPython bare metal stuff working and I'm just like, I have a weird screen. I have to like plug it into this because I want to make an e-ink IQ computer one day, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. So here, take it away us when we film this. Kaylee, what we have here is a Raspberry Pi and it's running CircuitPython on bare metal as I say in the biz. And the cool thing about that is you can display things on HDMI screens. But that wasn't good enough for us. We wanted to see if it worked on an e-ink HDMI display. So Lady, take it away. Yeah, so this is CircuitPython running native on the BCM 2845. I don't remember the part number. And what's cool is the frame buffer is actually really easy to write to, apparently. So there's two interesting things. One, we connect to the REPL over the USB. So this is actually running in like USB peripheral mode and that's where you get to the REPL. And then HDMI out is shown here. And as I type things into the REPL, it will refresh and appear. Super freaky. So GPIO is coming next. So far, so good. All right. And that's Python on hardware news this week. Yay, Blinka. A lot of cool stuff. I'm digging this slow and steady progress with the bare metal Raspberry Pi interpreter. I mean, it's kind of a ridiculous project, but it's also kind of a... Oh, no. This is going to be one of those weird sleeper hits that we have no idea what people are going to do with it. So the fact that you can get a $5 Raspberry Pi Zero 2W, I have this little portable projector. The idea that especially a young person can just start typing in things and learning the code and then make art that's broadcast, that's projected, or you can use an ink display. I want to make a high-coo thing where you learn how to make high-coos and then you take the ink display and you just put on the refrigerator. Stuff like that. Yeah. I mean, it's interesting because it's like... Democene and stuff. You know, Linux-less development. It's cool and interesting. Anyways, we'll see. Everyone wants a Python OS computer. People like the Raspberry Pi is cheaper than... It's at a Raspberry Pi 4. It's the same price as an Arduino. Well, okay, let's turn the Raspberry Pi into an Arduino. Yeah. Actually, technically Raspberry Pi W cheaper than an Arduino. So it's a little cheaper. Yeah. Yeah. So some open-source hardware news because we were doing the Adabox unboxing last week. Congrats to Sparkfun. They have fended off their patent troll. So I think they've also been subject to the same targeted harassment from patent trolls. Yeah, we've been harassed. Yeah, we're 5 for 5 as far as defeating them, but every single time it sucks. They're so annoying. They lie. They'll say that they've never settled with someone else and they'll try to shake you down. There's all sorts of things, but check it out on the Sparkfun website. You can read the article. They posted up a patent troll that backs off and they went through all the different parts of the lawsuit and I did a little bit of a summary as well. So this is interesting. There is one big question I still have, which is Arm sold the chips. They're supposed to indemnify. Arm should have indemnified. Yeah. Yeah. So I'm glad that they won. I'm really glad that Sparkfun won. They absolutely deserve to win and tell these people to... They shouldn't even have to deal with this. However, this should have been something that Arm holding stepped in and said, we indemnify you. We will take care of this and our legal team will take care of this. That if you're buying chips from a multi-billion dollar intellectual property holding company, it's their responsibility. That's why you're paying them. And my favorite thing is that you posted about this and you said, is there a indemnification for intellectual property, a patent to intellectual property? No, I emailed Arm. And of course they're like, we don't comment on pending litigation. So you can actually email that because the litigation is no longer pending. That's a good idea. I'll say hey, it's over. It's no longer pending. Yeah. That's a good idea. I'll do that. Really, it drives me nuts because this is... We have had a patent come after us and the software... We had five come after us. Well, but one of them, the software that they were claiming that we were infringing, we were buying that service from another company and they did indemnify us. And I was like, why was the startup company able to indemnify us but Arm Holding did not? So I like Arm Chips. I would like Arm to... What are you paying for? Here's the other thing. You don't get this. We have a lot of friends at Arm and we like them. But Arm is a holding company of sorts and they're made out of lawyers. Their whole job is lawyers. And if they want to see people innovate with their chips. This was like an easy opportunity because this lawsuit was stupid. At most it would have ended up being like $500 because they didn't sell these PC between their things. They didn't sell a ton. So Spark funds is like, all together it'd be like $500 maximum damages, something like that. And so Arm could have had a really easy victory and just said, hey look, we're Arm and the chip that these folks are saying that they have patents on, don't worry about it. And that would be a good thing for the community. And also I think it would have like anytime you get this stuff I'll just say it is someone who runs a business with it. When you get this patent troll demand last year we got one. It was on April 15th and it was the highest death day in New York City. And like, you know, tax day. I mean, there was extensions tax and everything. And then you get this letter that says like we want $4 million and it was so stupid and like they went away but they were real jerks about it and it would be great if there was more reform. You've asked for patent reform when you got a chance to interview President Obama. We've asked for patent reform over and over. So this is just a good example of something that shouldn't happen. And there's a lot of work to be done but congrats Spark fund and I'm glad you published it. We're going to try to publish our fights. Sometimes our lawyers say go for it and sometimes they say hey like watch out like it doesn't make sense to publish this one. And I understand that. But in general we would like to we would like to publish because if you shine light on these trolls maybe they'll go away. All right. So we're an open source hardware company to prove it. We have 2,568 guides. Lady Aida. What is on the big board this week? Okay, last week what we didn't have a show last week because we had an unboxing. So from last week's project Liz did a cool RP2040 Ada Lager, CO2 data logger project where she measures CO2 sensor data and humidity and temperature and logs it to a CSV file with date stamping thanks to a real-time clock. And now Pedro also made the most handy prop for Halloween. Not if you're cosplaying as a character from Loki but if you went to a Halloween party and all there was was Loki variance. Now you can get a printing baton and send them off to the void where they belong. Next up this week we had the guide for the VL53L1X we've added circuit python library thanks to Carter. We had the Ada box 20 unboxing thanks to JP. We did the guide for that. Dylan made this really fun two for one project either for the clue or the mag tag. It will auto generate a different feel good pep talk phrase for you every day based off of four different lists that it combines. It's like pick A, B, and C and it makes a cool phrase for you. The mag tag one I think it just displays one every day or every hour and the clue one you press a button. It's an example of just some simple python and how to display text and deal with lists. And then ready for Halloween ready for the holidays and or the next Spider-Man movie Dylan Pedro made a Green Goblin pumpkin prop circuit playground ornament so it looks like the prop bombs from Spider-Man the Green Goblin who's returning I hear in the new movie. It's for hollow thanks miss. Hollow thanks miss and you can use a circuit playground blue fruit and a neopixel ring to have some cool animations. Alright New York City factory footage take it away to fruit factory New York City factory footage without a time lapse the Disney building being built across the street our view is almost completely blocked by the mouse. It's already printed time so we have a couple things going on this week because we have a little bit of catch up a little bit of mustard so we're gonna play the video from last week and then a couple speed ups and then we'll see you on the other side. Hey what's up folks in this project we're making the time stick from the Disney plus series Loki we designed and 3d printed the sci-fi inspired baton and used a 3 watt LED to light up the diffuser hidden inside the handle are the electronics so when you move it around it'll make sounds the harder you swing the brighter it gets and the sounds are randomized so it feels more unique and less repetitive the diffuser is removable much like a light bulb you can unscrew it from the assembly powered by the feather m4 and the prop maker featherwing this combo features everything you need to build your next prop with motion activated lights and sounds the prop maker can drive a 3 watt RGB LED and features the LIS 3D H accelerometer with a built-in audio amplifier they're neatly fitted inside the handle with a special holder that can be pulled out the pommel is also removable and screws on to the bottom of the handle the prop maker and feather m4 snap fit together making this a pretty modular circuit the parts are 3d printed without any support material and they can fit on just about any 3d printer you can get the parts to build this project links are in the description circuit python makes it easy to make audio-based projects with LEDs and sensors in the code the sounds are triggered whenever the accelerometer detects certain thresholds they're triggered randomly from a list of sounds that are stored on the feather when designing this project we wanted it to be easy to access the USB port so folks can still reprogram the board the feather also features a built-in charging circuit so you can recharge the battery without having to take it apart with circuit python you can easily program electronics and quickly get your projects up and running for a full tutorial on building this project be sure to check out the learn guide on the Adafruit learning system we had a lot of fun building this project and hope this inspires you to check out circuit python thanks so much for watching and make sure to subscribe for more 3d printed projects from Adafruit here we go a little reminder mid-break show-ish don't forget the code is catlamp 10% off and need to restore all the way up to probably midnight when it is time, you ready? yes time on P.I. time on P.I. this week's I on P.I. with Sun Tzu Sun Tzu was a California company originally of course I thought it was you know Japanese perhaps but actually I think they just used the Sun Tzu like art of war name to their name which is cool but they're a company and they make all sorts of electronic components I just bought some crystals from them they're the only company that had 32 kilohertz crystals in stock but this week we're focusing on something I saw on digikey.com slash new oh wow I just noticed something they're packaging this you can't sorry oh it's part of the secret okay well I just noticed it okay hey buckle up folks this is going to be a great ION MPI brought to you by Digikey no this is going to be good because if I notice something you're ruining it okay no one has any idea what I was looking at okay so they make they or you know they make foot pedal switches so this is a rendering of a foot pedal switch so these are you know famously used in you know guitar pedal effect pedals and this is their you know they have a couple different styles and you can see the three styles there's like different depths of the panel mounting and they're slightly different like tops like one's kind of flatter and one is kind of rounder and these are just really really really durable panel mount switches and they're meant for like a hundred thousand actuations which is a lot higher than a lot of switches and considering like the abuse that they take because they are like you know they're called stompboxes you stomp on them with your feet you can see on the right is an image of a stompbox you know sometimes they have knobs and stuff but these are used by guitarists and you know their hands are busy they're playing guitar and so they can't reach down and press a button you know sometimes the guitarists have knobs and stuff but if you want an external filter on it use a distortion pedal or effects pedal or stomp pedal or whatever stompbox whatever you want to call it and so these buttons they're durable and they will put up a lot of abuse compare that with you know these classic tactile switches they're basically the same thing but these little tactile switches have you know very little you know force activation required maybe a hundred gram force and you know they're they're good for like you know maybe 50,000 or 10,000, 50,000 activations but they're definitely not going to be durable I mean even an arcade switch you wouldn't want to press that with your foot you know you would smash the plastics you need something metal and you need something that has like a nub that sticks out so your foot can feel it because usually again you're wearing shoes right so you want something that you can feel that there's a point through your feet because you don't have a lot of sensory feedback through shoes you know another you know I was thinking like what other times would you use foot activation so sewing machines you know if you've ever used a sewing machine you know that there are you know pedals like this one this is a potentiometer style pedal that you use your foot way then you can you know tilt it you can't do you know some people can do very fine motor control with their feet but most people again they're wearing shoes and they don't have a lot of emotion or pressing but you know a couple of other things that were mentioned is robotics hospital and medical equipment sometimes people you know they want to turn something on or off or they want to lift or lower a bed they use foot switches of course you know sewing machines tattooing machines apparently it was like oh obviously you know if you're tattooing you want to control whether it's on or off you would use a foot pedal for that as well so it's even though these are you know they're called guitar pedal switches they're not necessarily just for guitar pedals and there's a lot of different options in stock there's ones that are like pan they're all panel mount some have solder lugs some are PC mount the one that I picked up that I'll show you has a JST XH connector actually which is pretty cool and did you know that there's actually a whole section on guitar parts and accessories there is and there's like 800 parts and then go check it out you know the kind of like it's still large you know I'm used to like oscillators and tactile switches but these are actually under guitar parts it's a different area than switches or tactile switches or buttons or what not they're considered a different type of user interface so I can show it on the overhead before we go to well let me just say where it's available it's available on and there's lots of stuff yeah and you know worth noting we've been doing this segment with partnership with Digikey for a while it's really useful I like to think that we're helping people find all the you know the industry like you don't think like what if you had a foot control button but it's like you know sometimes you have to look at again because it's like these are used for guitar pedals but they're used for like tattooing machines whoever did the tattooing machine they were probably like oh should I put the button on the tattoo gun to show this thing a better idea to have a foot switch so this version I like that it comes with this little JSTXH because it means it's user replaceable it's polarized and yeah it's got you know the two panel mount lugs it's dirty very thick panel mounting area and I like that it's like you can panel mount between the two so it's like it can be offset and then let me build it more and it's on the bottom it says can do up to 6 amps 125 volts it's got the Sunsu logo and it is a marketplace product can you go back one just to show so this is the first time we've highlighted something can you go back one more because it's more readable this is the first time we've highlighted something that's a marketplace product which means it's not shipped from DigiCy it's actually shipped from pretty fast it's just you can get it in like three days instead of overnight and it came with this really cool packaging Sunsu which has this special message for you they're helping tech companies create kick ass products and this is what I saw over there and just like whoa that's cool that's cool packaging that's cool thing to put on there this is actually it's only spot color but it looks they did a really nice job whoever designed this packaging over at Sunsu by the way they did good I know I know what good looking packaging that's easy to use and affordable looks like and this is it so beyond that they also make great foot switches alright that's an API alright we still have a bunch of heads so let's just go right into new products okay I can't wait till we get a copyright strike from the more singing something too close for me I'm going to have the copyright strike against myself alright so first up first up you wanted this this is pretty handy a lot of people have USB-C laptops and they want to well now there's the new mac books that have a micro SD SD slot but if you have an older computer plug this in at high speed it's not the old slow you know slow speed USB 2.0 it's like whatever USB-C speed it'll be as fast as the SD card lets you write and that's very handy when you're burning a lot of Raspberry Pi SD cards so I like this of course it goes either way it has a little keychain it's nice and durable and it's fast alright next up next up this is from Elkie they make soldering kits and if I'm going to have a soldering kit first of all it has to look really cool it has to be something you want to keep after the fact so this is a beautifully designed art deco cat kit and it's break apart PCBs that you solder together and you solder together the big tabs to hold the thing together and then there is a little bit of circuitry you can see in the middle this is what it looks like you get the PCB and then there are diagonal cutters and solder to put it together I agree because a lot of soldering kits are like okay now I just have a green square yeah this is like no you have a cat lamp it's really this is so beautiful they did a really lovely job it's got a little bit of you know it's a little it reminds me of an art deco kimono design so you've got these beautiful gold elements here and flowers and then this cute cat sensor wait there's an on off switch which I really like so you can turn the on or off and then when it gets dark this LED turns on so it's a very simple little lamp but I think it's a beautiful first soldering kit and if you're going to put together a soldering kit this one is very elegant and nice and you'll enjoy having it on your desk it's quite beautiful pull it up so you can see how big it is in sorry in the hands and then the one second sorry next to you Minzo okay thank you yeah it's desk sized it's like you know the size of a coffee cup or so and it's very simple put together but it's very beautiful so they did a really good job and I think it's a really nice gift this is a good stocking stuff we should add it to our gift guides for stocking stuff add it now because like who knows what's going to happen in December okay next up we have the Pico system okay so Pimeroni they worked really hard on this for a really long time and they finally have come out with their handheld gaming system based on the RP2040 and this is it's really well made it's really beautiful with an anodized aluminum case and a rechargeable battery and it's got the RP2040 inside it's a dual core Cortex M0 chip got a D-pad it's got a piezo speaker it's got the four buttons 240 by 240 I think 1.3 inch IPS screen it's just really beautiful it's got a little buzzer to make noise so maybe let's go to the overhead I'm going to show this off so the idea behind this is that you'll actually program it in micro-python there is a circuit python build although the tutorials and the graphical system designed for it is in micro-python and you can program sprites and sound effects and stuff it's definitely got like it's 240 by 240 so it's a square display it's got a real Pico 8 feel to it I actually started writing a long time ago a Pico 8 parser for Arduino so it would be interesting if somebody I wanted to pick that up and finish porting it but it's really beautiful got this routed PCB on the top and a strong anodized aluminum case on off and then programming and recharging over USB-C so it's really adorable I think this is one of the nicest handheld DIY gaming platforms it's definitely small and cute but comfortable to play you know they got the nice rounded corners down here and a little bit of the pie gamer hopefully they were they learned something from my design for the pie gamer they got the same kind of low you know small radius here low radius here it's very handy to hold and they figured out how to do the d-pad and buttons which is something that it's quite challenging with really good machining you can make a very usable control interface so you want to learn how to code games you want it to be in color you don't need a crank recommend the Pico system alright next up and speaking of Raspberry Pi stuff the next round there's a lot of Raspberry Pi stuff so here we go okay so we actually talked about this before but now it's in stock so this hat fits on top of the Raspberry Pi and lets you control the latest generation of mindstorms robotics and sensors it's got four ports the power supply we don't have the official power supply in stock yet but we do have a power supply that can be like it's adjustable it can be dialed to eight volts and plugged in so you can you know use the Adafruit power supply if you want to get this build hat and then control LEGO robots it's kind of interesting because you know with LEGO to make sure it's compatible and they've got the right connector so I think if you want to make you know your LEGO robotics but like do a lot more that maybe even make it internet connected use the Raspberry Pi camera do machine learning and TensorFlow you can actually do that now because there's this Python library that you can interface instead of trying to you know trying to do whatever you want with the official LEGO controller which is wonderful but it's just not as programmable as a Raspberry Pi not as flexible okay next up this is the Pi Cam this is a really interesting you know this is kind of a single serving product but the thing it does is quite useful so you program you can plug in a Raspberry Pi for compute module onto the back this is the compute module here the Raspberry Pi for compute module and this one happens to have Wi-Fi and flash memory but it doesn't necessarily be can be any of them and then you bolt this on and then you can connect a camera on and that's kind of all it does you get the power and USB debug port so you can load you know the MMC flash but it's really just meant to hold a camera and you can make little camera projects that are the power of a Raspberry Pi 4 so again good for machine learning or TensorFlow or you know detection stuff where you want to have IoT projects that use camera maybe make a webcam or detect something and then maybe read some sensor data you know who knows that is a good use for this project because there is the I-O control board for the the compute module but it's just massive maybe you don't need that maybe you need something a little bit smaller this is nice and compact I have kind of a large cable here but of course you can have a much smaller FBC cable if you want this to be a compact package it doesn't come with the camera in the compute module you have to add that so this is just the adapter board okay and then you besides our team our community our customers and our staff everyone working behind the scenes is the Raspberry Pi W2 yes oh you know during the break I was supposed to put some I'm going to put a couple in stock if you're watching this live oh yeah so here when we go to the next video I'll quickly put here's what we're going to do we're going to talk about this and then when we start to line up stuff for what I play in videos for Top Secret I'll play two back to back then I'll go and I'll do it so these are about to go in the store we saved just a few I just saved a couple for the live show right now they'll be gone instantly yeah okay so the Pi okay but if you're not watching live they're probably not in stock because we saw that very quickly so the Pi Zero 2W which came out last Thursday at 2 a.m. so we were up late this chip basically has the form factor of the Pi Zero so it has the same you know two micro USB ports can do gadget mode has HDMI has the micro SD has the little camera slot has a 2 by 20 GPIO it fits in all the camera it's in all the cases for the Raspberry Pi Zero but it has the computational power of the Pi 3B Plus so it's a quad core processor it's got I think 512 megabytes of RAM and of course the memory is whatever micro SD card slot you know whatever you can fit inside and it's got Wi-Fi and Bluetooth and it's under a tin so it can be more easily integrated into products that need shielded Wi-Fi for FCC or CE compliance but basically it's like you want a Raspberry Pi that's about it's like five, six times faster than the Pi Zero W and it's about the same price this is a great upgrade and I'll say you know if you're watching this in around 2021 there aren't going to be Pi Zeros for quite a bit there's a silicon shortage and I think they're focusing a lot on trying to get the Pi 4s out but if you do want a Pi Zero this version of the Pi Zero is probably going to be the one that's going to be replacing the old you know Zero One W and the Zero One which you know most people do want Wi-Fi they do want more computational power so you know 15 bucks is a really great deal it's basically a Pi 2 or Pi 3B Plus but really small and of course it works with all of our circuit Python libraries which is great for you can do some very not like super TensorFlow but you can do some basic machine learning on it as well all right let's do products yay do do do do do okay I'm going to quickly put that thing yeah so here's what we're going to do okay first I'm going to say Catlamp Catlamp I like lamp so we're going to do Top Secret and I'm going to play two videos so you have exactly two minutes I'm going to go and then we'll start to do some questions all right go go go I'm going to go Hi lady what is this the final test on the ESP32S2 feather that I designed I finally got the modules with PSRAM built in so that makes it really good for use with circuit Python or do we know get that extra PSRAM so what I'm doing is I'm testing it against all my different feather wings to make sure they work you know the Adelager with the OLED all that and one of the tests I'm doing is with the RGB matrix feather wings so this allows it to plug into you know these nice RGB matrices so this demo is actually a circuit Python demo that connects to GitHub and gets the number of stars for circuit Python and then displays it onto the matrix so we've got 2,631 stars and it's you know it's pretty fast what I like about having the native Wi-Fi as it can connect to the internet and get data in just a couple seconds so far working so good I'm going to order this hardware real soon cool all right lady what is this hey I'm making more Stem IQT boards I did get a big shipment of 80 tiny 817 which means I can make these Stem IQT to sensor break out so this is a slide potentiometer to I squared C converter board and there's four neopixels now you know my controllers have ADC so you know you may not need a board like this to convert it to I squared C but a single board computer like a Raspberry Pi or an onion Pi or you know whatever Linux machine often don't have ADC's and so if you want just like one or two slide pots this can be a really easy plug and play way to do it because you just do it over I squared C plug and play and then you get the analog reading so this is the board and you can see those nice neopixels underneath testing it with a Metro mini and I'm programming it over UDPI with a USB to serial converter and these are the values looking good ready to ship all right so we got a few things here okay so I finally got around to redesigning all those boards that were based off of the SAM-D09 that were like step by QT user interface stuff so this is the Neo Slider which you saw it's a 75 millimeter slide pitch with some neopixels underneath it and it's controllable over I squared C which is very handy if you don't have any input so you just want to make a simple user interface and then this is the tester that goes with it so what the tester looks like and then we had another thing before yeah I just kind of put together this quick break out I fit everything on the stem QT board for the PAJ 7620 it's a gesture sensor I'll try it out and in case you didn't see it because you know we've had eight of box unboxing and a lot going on we've been publishing a lot a lot going on we have a series of pink PCB boards that we're going to be releasing yeah I want to redo the Feather M4 I mean it might be purple I don't know if it's going to be pink but maybe it'll be pink but one of the ones we're leading with is pink yeah so I wanted to redo the Feather M4 one thing is we actually ended up with a lot of SamD51J20 and we used the J19 on the Feather M4 and I was like if I'm going to upgrade the chip I should just actually do a little bit of an upgrade so I updated the amount of flash and I put a stem QT port and there's a button on the end and then I was like on the bottom let's put you know there's a lot going on here but I think it's a nice little upgrade you know people really like the Feather M4 and I was like what can I do to make it even better that's not a secret okay so I put in about 60 of the Pi Zero 2Ws if you do get a Pi Zero 2W please pick up something else like a case or something because we basically sell the 2Z at cost and you know they're not part of the discount thing so catlamp is the code so put your questions on discord adafruit.it slash discord or discord.gg slash adafruit channel 31,000 of us let's do the questions lady I have a couple lined up okay we've got a couple minutes of questions yeah we got through everything tonight I think okay so first up someone's asking about the ESP 32Z Feather and the Matrix Feather Wing are there specific requirements that would prevent it incidentally NRF-52? yeah there are requirements for PINs like they have to be you know sometimes they have to be in order or they have to be on the same bus I don't know if the ESP 32 Feather would work try it we just haven't gotten around to it and I don't know if Proto Matter has any requirements I mean try it out use a oscilloscope see if the signals come out okay so let's see here would a PR be accepted at CircuitPython oops it's just got edited for ESP 32 Board to natively use the Adafruit Perfor Libraries or would that only be accepted for ESP 32 S2 boards that have native USB so instead should I try to compile my own CircuitPython firmware we don't have ESP 32 non-S2 support anyways you won't I mean you can try to submit support but you know we will probably be using the Bluetooth method of interfacing so what I would do is actually and then you'll get comments on it okay there is brothers prop maker base projects example the TimeStick always use the M4 Express can I use the more affordable RP2040 feather you can the reason they like the M4 for props is because it has a true DAC and so your audio is going to sound a lot better the RP2040 uses a PWM DAC PWM for audio and it just doesn't it just doesn't sound as good to be honest so that's what you're going to that's the main reason I'm going to paraphrase this one so we have an Adafruit daily thing where you can sign up for for electronic tips and one of them says transition current ratings and data sheets can be deceptive never rely on marketing material and do your own thermal calculations and it says it seems to equate that data sheets cannot be trusted what gives no I mean it's not that they can't be trusted you just you may not know what they're saying being able to read and understand the data sheets you being a skilled engineer and with a lot of experience which you may not be you may be a beginner or you might be just a maker and you're trying to pick the right transistor what they're saying is just because it's a five amp transistor does not mean you can put five amps to it that five amp rating might be dependent on you having active cooling or you know a certain you know gate source voltage or a threshold voltage so you can use it as a guideline for the situation you have to know as an engineer whether your materials are spec the way you need to for your particular design okay next up a lot of folks know this this is more of a statement that about the pi about the zero two you can disable cores to save energy yes you can you can also underclock it okay next up someone has a light rocket motor igniter for about 10 amps really big one for 10 amps even though it's a low voltage get the big chunky really they meant 12 volts I don't know if that matters if it's 12 volts and 12 amps and yeah I would still use the big chunky one 10 amps is a lot hey Bob I'm stopping the chat I'm saying hi to Bob okay next up let me see if there's any more Scott's answering some questions for the circuit python question before some people are saying trust but verify or read the fine print it's your your requirements may not meet the data sheet test specifications that's all yeah take it from someone who's lived a life it's kind of like you're buying clothing and you're like I'm a size 8 it's like if you're buying clothing online you know that 8 is probably where you want to start but you might want to try the size below and above it's like it depends a little bit just because it's different right and then so this was in the chat earlier and I'll talk about it briefly and then we'll wrap up the show so McMaster car has snacks on their site you can order snacks yeah I mean they have like Gatorade someone said Adafruit should have that so here's the thing so shipping foods oh I'm not going to even get to that part so you know once in a while people see a charge on their card and it gets automatically moved and they have it in categories so it says Adafruit so it says grocery and there was a bunch of startups that were like trying to help people like manage their finances and no matter what Adafruit stuff would go in and these were engineers who were like trying this like startup service and so we would always say hey can you like make sure it goes into like you know what the person wants which is like R&D or like whatever but sometimes when people wouldn't recognize like but it says fruit what does it have to do with fruit and I'm like well have you ever heard of Apple and they're like yeah like you know I have an iPhone everything I'm like they sell zero apples and I'm like then there's other people and just like have you ever bought a raspberry pie and they're like oh yeah the little computer I'm just like well those are also pies and there's also Blackberry and there's a whole menagerie of non-edible electronics yeah cornucopia of non-edible electronics
