I’ve searched all over the internet but couldn’t actually find any data on current measurements done by people so I thought I’d do a couple and put them up here! The OLED I’m using is a standard 128×64 pixel version that […]

After seeing loads of implementations for HD44780 16×2 character based LCDs, I couldn’t find any examples for the easy to get LCDs (by easy, […]
So we’ve finally got our second semester project briefs and it has been declared that we need to build a half duplex one direction communication system! Obviously, as its a project given by the university, it can’t be as easy as sending USART down a cable and receiving it, requiring pretty much no effort… at […]
4×4 Font Well! With the advent of multiple new LCDs to test out, I decided to challenge myself to designing a 4×4 font, a pretty grim task if I’m honest. A 4×4 font with good byte packing could store the whole font set from character 32 to character 127 in 190 bytes. Note that for […]
