Well, starting with the updates first! As some of you may know, I’m at university, well through the first few weeks now. All seems well so far! None the less, university work renders me less able to post as often as I’d like to, or at least until the load relaxes a little (never i […]
Well in light of my recent hardware addition, I’ve decided to convert the basis of my HD44780 code into a standalone library. I’ve also added the ability to print signed integer numbers with padding with my whole code including examples compiling to < 3.5k at O0 optimization! Snazzy or what, with O3 optimization, I’ve managed […]

These LCD’s are quite out of my price range at ~£14 each! So after another eBay search, I found a total 1.44″ gem (http://goo.gl/3Tfg7e Link will […]
So as my favourite form of exam (or general) procrastination, I’ve been designing a new smartwatch! This one is based on the new STM32 range and will include a TSSOP (http://goo.gl/TAUKS8) microcontroller instead of a pesky QFP (http://goo.gl/ccKwXR), they’re not particularly different other than the TSSOP package doesn’t have pins on all 4 sides. I’ve […]

It involved a few tasks using an Arduino which I feel suited me greatly as I first learnt to program using an Arduino. After […]
