How to make a bootable compact flash
Hi, I have a PC104 system. It does not have either a floppy or a CD drive, it has a compact flash drive a: built in and an add on board for a compact flash card (like used in cameras) for drive c:. It comes with a defunct dos clone called GSDOS. Someone before me made a MSDOS bootable flash drive. Now with that I... 24 Jun 2005 18:02

MIDI Decoder Chip?
Is there an IC that will decode MIDI data? I need something that I can use in an embedded system with a fairly simple (e.g. 8051 or PIC) microcontroller. Ideally the chip would take MIDI data directly and output analog audio for an amplifier, run on 5V and be available retail in a thru hole package, but I'll ta... 16 Jun 2005 15:13

AT91RM9200
Hi Someone asked me to help him with AT91RM9200 and AT91RM9200-EK kit. I have gnu toolchain with gcc "3.4.3". I plan that we will run programs directly on that processor - without any kind of operating systems (linux or winCE). I'm looking for project samples for this board. Are there in the internet availab... 10 Jun 2005 13:18

Hi folks, I am now a little bit confused. Is ZigBee 802.15.4 or is ZigBee on top of 802.15.4? I'll have to read that 802.15.4 spec throught. What are the news about open source and embedded applications taking benefits from those standards? Did anyone of you evaluate Chipcon hardware, the CC2420 chip? The ... 1 Jun 2005 18:10

Same problem.....
Hi ! I'm happy I'm not the only one in the world to have problem configuring these cameras.... I'm using a OV7141, so the same camera but B&W. I'm configuring the camera with a PIC core intergrated on a SPARTAN IIE FPGA. I have 2 1k resistors on SDA/SCL, I checked the signals and timings sent by the FPGA to t... 31 May 2005 04:40

PIC code for LMX2306 synthesiser
Does anyone have any PIC code (PIC16F676) for National's LMX2306. I'm sure the PIC has been interfaced to this chip a million times and I'm looking for some drag and drop code to save a few hours. Thanks, Thomas ... 11 Apr 2005 16:23
