V roku 2016 napísala Veronika Homolová Tóthová knihu Mengeleho dievča. Ide o skutočný príbeh pani Violy Stern Fischerovej z Lučenca, ktorá prežila 4 koncentračné tábory, brutálne nehumánne pokusy doktora Josefa Mengeleho prezývaného aj "Anjel smrti" a počas holokaustu prišla takmer o celú svoju rodinu. Na základe knihy vznikla v divadle Ramagu zo Spišskej Starej Vsi divadelná monodráma režisérky Jany Ovšonkovej, v ktorej postavu pani Violy stvárnila Simona Marhefková. Tá za svoj herecký výkon získala cenu za najlepšiu herečku a Ramagu titul najlepšieho neprofesionálneho divadla na Slovensku. V dnešnom diele sa zhovárame najmä o tom, kým ako ľudia dokážeme byť, keď v našej každodennej rutine pri každej príležitosti volíme ľudskosť, slušnosť, čestnosť a súcit.

This week's EYE ON NPI is a treasure, and will measure pressure with pleasure...it's the Amphenol All Sensors' ELVH Series Digital and Analog Pressure Sensors (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/a/all-sensors/elvh-series-digital-and-analog-pressure-sensors). A family of temperature and pressure sensors with a ton of different configurations so you can definitely fit it into your design no matter what interface or usage range. These sensors integrate a process improvement to the sensing element: the CoBeam2 series is a MEMS etched piezo-resistive 'strain gauge diaphragm'. This li'l chunk of silicon creates a Wheatstone bridge where the pressure against the die makes microscopically small changes to the resistances that can be measured on the differential output. That's not surprising: pretty much all absolute or differential pressure sensors come as 4-element Wheatstone bridge configuration (https://www.digikey.com/short/jp83d457) - and these require extra analog circuitry to handle and amplify the small voltage change readings, or a high precision ADC - we've covered 24-bit ADCs for reading bridge sensors on earlier EYE ON NPIs (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Xkr7OjHQfU). With the ELVH family of sensors, you can get cleaned-up ratiometric analog output, or ready-to-integrate I2C or SPI - so you can pair these even with fully-digital microcontrollers or microcomputers that have no analog inputs. Plus, since its digitized already, you also get bonus status bits and temperature reads. This full family of pressure and temperature sensors comes in a dizzying set of possible packages and configurations, from SMT J-Lead to through hole DIP or SIP. There's also both absolute and differential input-ports, and barbed, needle or flat ports that can connect with common tubing to measure pressure inside a cavity or ambiently. Of course, temperature will always be an 'on-chip' ambient measurement. For any sort of industrial or medical purpose, you can pick the pressure range from as low as 1inH2O (0.0025 bar) to +10 bar. Finally, both I2C and SPI are available for digital read-out, or analog if you want to maintain compatibility with older sensors. If you're designing a product that requires measuring air or gas pressure, and you want to skip the whole analog-front-end development part to get to market fast - check out these Amphenol All Sensors' ELVH Series (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/a/all-sensors/elvh-series-digital-and-analog-pressure-sensors) - DigiKey stocks almost 200 different varieties of the ELVH sensor family (https://www.digikey.com/short/m4vr4wr5) which means that even if your requirements change during R&D, you will be able to get perfect pressure readings. Since they are in stock for immediate shipment, you can order tonight and get any flavor you like by tomorrow morning.

One of the big tasks that Ladyada still has to spend a lot of time on is writing Arduino libraries for all our devices and sensors, particularly all the I2C & SPI chips out there! These ICs use register maps and sub-byte addressing to set dozens of configurable knobs and switches, and a good driver lets folks set and get all of the noodly bits. However, there is yet to be a standard format to get that configuration map. Instead, you have to pore over datasheets with long lists of binary tables and bit insets to figure out how to convert that into C or Python code. It is tough. Only a few folks can write an excellent comprehensive library.... but Ladyada can & has! In fact, there are hundreds of Arduino libraries on Adafruit's GitHub https://github.com/orgs/adafruit/repositories, all in the Ladyada 'style,' using Adafruit_BusIO for I2C / SPI register addressing https://github.com/adafruit/Adafruit_BusIO/ and since ChatGPT 4 was trained on all of it, we can ask it to become a mini-Ladyada to write new drivers. With a PDF parsing plugin, we can even upload the chip's datasheet to extract register names, values, create enum tables, and text for doxygen comments. Here's the chatGPT log for the video https://chat.openai.com/c/f740eb57-17a6-41e3-ae0a-12da959a1f4c - and here's a previous one that is more 'complete' https://chat.openai.com/share/f44dc335-7555-4758-b2f9-487f9409d556. The amount of time it takes for ChatGPT to write a driver is about the same as it would take Ladyada, and you definitely need to be eagle-eyed to redirect the AI if it starts making mistakes... but it can be done even when Ladyada is tired after a full day of baby-care, or at the same time as pumping https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EpbH-sXRNps - plus there's a lot less continuous typing/mousing so her wrists don't ache the next day! Do you use ChatGPT for electrical engineering or coding work? Any suggestions on how to make this even better? This is only our 3rd day using this tool, so we're getting started with how to integrate it into our workflow.

With our ESP32-S3 TFT experimenter board, we're now able to use the Arduino_GFX https://github.com/moononournation/Arduino_GFX library by moononournation which has native RGB TFT support and excellent example code. This example is playing MJPEG files, a simple animation format https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motion_JPEG with just JPEGs glued together. We wired up a MicroSD card over SPI for quick file storage and retrieval, or 1-bit MMC works, too. files are converted with ffmpeg: 'ffmpeg -i "wash.mp4" -vf "fps=10,vflip,hflip,scale=-1:480:flags=lanczos,crop=480:480" -pix_fmt yuvj420p -q:v 9 wash.mjpeg', natch!

This week's EYE ON NPI will make your sensors soft and luxurious thanks to the Renesas ZSSC3241 Sensor Signal Conditioning IC (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/r/renesas/zssc3241-sensor-signal-conditioning-ic) - which, like a fancy bottle of hair conditioner, will de-tangle any frustrations you have with using resistive sensors that require amplification and filtering. Many "sensors" that engineers use to measure temperature, pressure, force, light, etc, are actually implemented as resistive sensors. For example, take your common CdS cell (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/filter/photo-detectors-cds-cells/540) also known as an LDR - Light Dependant Resistor. The CdS material has an interesting property that as light shines on it, the resistance decreases. Another common sensor is the PT100 or PT1000 temperature sensor (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/filter/temperature-sensors/rtd-resistance-temperature-detector/535) those are known as RTD - Resistance Temperature Detector - and have a tiny sliver of platinum that has a near-linear increase in resistance as temperature increases (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/honeywell-sensing-and-productivity-solutions/HEL-705-U-0-24-00/3073062). A third example is the classic strain gauge, made of a thin plate of patterned metallic material that very slightly changes resistance as it is deformed (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strain_gauge). That kind of rough estimation works great for beginners or simple light sensing, but will not cut it when you have to use a strain gauge at the supermarket to measure pounds of veggies: you want it to be very precise, at least within 1% or better! And if you're using a temperature measurement for a scientific process, you may need to get within 1 degree C or better. You can usually improve the quality slightly by having a 1% or 0.1% precision resistor, adding an op-amp gain stage, upgrading your ADC from 8 or 10 bit to 16 or 24 bits - however you will still need to adjust calibration from sensor-to-sensor as well as account for temperature and/or humidity. That's where the Renesas ZSSC3241 Sensor Signal Conditioning IC (https://www.digikey.com/short/q1w59d7c) comes in! It's designed specifically to make any resistive sensor easy to wire up and interface with SPI, I2C or 1-Wire. You can use Wheatstone half-bridge, full-bridge or divider configuration so it's good for strain gauges or RTDs. There's even analog output! The ZSSC3241 provides measurement value readouts and programming capabilities via an I2C, SPI, or one-wire interface (OWI). Three different operation modes allow optimal development of digital, digital-analog, and analog-output smart sensor modules including wake-up on request, continuous-on/fast-response, and automatic/cyclic sensor measurement operations. Absolute and ratiometric voltage, current-loop, or interrupt analog outputs are supported by the ZSSC3241. The analog output options and digital interface options (for calibration and/or a digital application interface) can be combined. Some great stuff that is included in this chip includes dual PGA stages with up to 300x and 1.8x gain, mV offset shift correction, 12 to 24 bit adjustable ADC resolution - lower resolutions will be faster, adjustable sensor bias current, adjustable temperature compensation, oversampling and averaging, error fault reporting, NVM storage for calibration details, interrupt output on value change, and configurable cyclic measurements with sleep mode (https://www.renesas.com/us/en/document/dst/zssc3241-datasheet?r=25417946) - as well as many other configurations that you can check out in the datasheet. While there are many ADCs that one can use to read resistive bridge, we've never seen one with so many knobs for getting the exact right data out without needing a lot of extra massaging....and the pricing is great considering how much more you get than a normal off-the-shelf ADC chip. If you want to get started fast we recommend getting the ZSSC3241 Eval Board (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/renesas/ZSSC3241KIT/19234863), particularly since it some with desktop GUI software that can be used to test out the zillions of configuration settings directly with your sensor of choice wired up, without having to go through a ton of re-compilation cycles. Both the Renesas ZSSC3241 Sensor Signal Conditioning IC (https://www.digikey.com/short/q1w59d7c) and Eval Board (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/renesas/ZSSC3241KIT/19234863) are in stock now for immediate shipment from DigiKey. Order today and you'll get those chip in hand by tomorrow afternoon, so that when you are faced with your next resistive sensor project, you'll skip the struggle and go straight to soft, silky, sensor success.

Blimey! We found a bin of these 3.5" 480x320 capacitive touch displays while clearing out some space in the adafruit factory; we totally forgot about them... at the time, we were having some difficulty with getting them working consistently, but we were also not sure if we remember what was up. We will assume they are OK and design a version of our 3.5" TFT breakout https://www.adafruit.com/product/2050 but with support for the captouch chip, which is an FT5336. So far, it mostly works. The FT5336 can report up to 5 touches, and we got that data out. The HX8357D is a bit long in the tooth, but it works over SPI, and we've got running drivers, so folks could still use this display!

We showed off some fabulous shaped displays last week - and now we're getting them running! This is a 2.1" 480x480 round display with SPI configuration and an 18-bit RGB interface. Thankfully there is already an Arduino library https://github.com/Lzw655/ESP32_Display_Panel that supports the SPI configuration over port expander stuff on this eval board, plus the touchscreen drivers, too - it saved me a lot of time! The chipset is ST7701, a typical TFT panel driver. You definitely have to initialize the display first with the proper configuration before you can blast RGB data for it to show up, but we were able to noodle that together here https://github.com/ladyada/ESP32_Display_Panel/blob/master/src/lcd/ST7701.cpp#L37, and now it's looking great. Now we know this display and touch setup works, we'll start ordering the displays for us to stock and use.

Coming soon - this is a quick sketch we did of an RGB TTL driver PCB to help us try out all our funky-shaped displays. We reused most of the Matrix Portal S3 PCB, but instead of the RGB matrix connector, we popped on a 40-pin FPC. 16 GPIO go to the RGB pins, then there are 4 control pins for HSYNC, VSYNC, DE, and PIXCLK. Three more pins for touch screen I2C and IRQ. Then a NeoPixel, two buttons, and 3 SPI pins for configuring the screen controller, and we're almost out of pins! An I2C GPIO expander could save us a couple pins at the expense of more complex drivers, but for now, we will make it easy to get the displays running, and we can play silly pin games later.

So, in this episode, I share some valuable tactics to help you optimize your customer experience and make more sales! Here's the thing.

This week we've got bangin set from St. Louis born & Los Angeles based DJ and producer, Joey G of the ‘Lots of Practice'' label. About this scorcher, Joey sez: “I wanted to start this mix with a track that felt like just throwing yourself into something, like just taking the leap and building your wings on the way down...which is what I did when I made this mix and something I've been trying to practice more in my life. There are twists and turns, breaks in the plan, moments of clarity and chaos, but it all feels good in the end.” TRACKLIST: DJ Icey - Wombat Coming JP Sunshine & Guim - Toc de Breaks (Enxaneta Mix) Om Unit - Deadnettle Ranma Entero, Dj Lovly, Loe - BS - Give Me (Loe Edit) Wu-Tang Clan - C.R.E.A.M (Pj Bridger Refix) Hudson Mohawke & Nikki Nair - Set The Roof OSSX - DONT LINGER Coffintexts - Touch Villager, DJ ADHD - Joint Resolution Nia Archives - Conveniency (Bakey Extended Remix) Introspekt - It's Cold Up North Addison Groove - Elevator Nightwave - Sunset Yellow yourboykiran, BRAVA - ¡CÁLMATE!

The digging that he does for dance floor selections has garnered him unique opportunities spinning all over. After shaking loose a love for house music on the west side with his project, Green Room, Joey has since started his label, Lots of Practice, which is quickly gaining traction for its approach to the music space. He's been trusted as a curator on numerous occasions, including a weekly 4-hour residency on Abracadabra's Twitch channel and a guest mix exclusively for Emirates Airlines Inflight Radio through the Deeper Sounds program. Joey G has appeared at a variety of venues like Sound Nightclub, Winston House, 1720 and Club Tee Gee in LA plus, a set at SXSW and on Teddy Kitano's LOUP Sessions, which has featured artists like Preditah, DJ Earl, Spiñorita, and multiple Juke Bounce Werk DJs. While recently releasing his debut original track ""Techno Bell"" on Fantastic Voyage, plus a series of edits, plans for more production are well in the works."

We're finally redoing our 2.8" resistive touch screen shield https://www.adafruit.com/product/1651, which has been out of stock for a looooong time due to parts shortages and then TFT pricing nuttiness. This time, we're revising it to use the TSC2007 https://www.adafruit.com/product/5423 and testing it against the new Metro ESP32-S3 prototypes. We've wired the IRQ pin-up, and the touchscreen responsiveness is excellent. One nice thing about using I2C is that we don't have to share the SPI port, so if you're using something like LVGL, which does TFT drawing or touch screen reading in an interrupt, there's less risk of contention.

Ésaïe n'est pas le premier à assister à un si triste spectacle, ni le dernier. Les inégalités rendent la fracture évidente, l'injustice flagrante. Et pourtant, l'aveuglement persiste, l'hypocrisie est à son comble. On se goinfre quand le défavorisé meurt de faim, on bâtit à foison quand l'opprimé est à la rue... Cela doit être dénoncé, et un espoir apporté !

The RA8875 is a nifty chip that can do SPI to 24-bit TTL display, up to 800x480! https://www.adafruit.com/product/1590 this breakout is an older design and with many parts no longer available, we had to do a respin to change the backlight driver from a FAN5333 to another high-output constant-current LED string driver https://blog.adafruit.com/2022/08/02/the-great-search-white-led-strand-backlight-constant-current-driver-fan5333-replacement-thegreatsearch-digikey-adafruit/ and while we were there we also updated the MISO pin to be tristate-d via a 74AHC1G125 so that you can share the SPI port with other chips - that was a request from over a decade ago that linged on my todo list. but it's done now :) #adafruit #electronics #RA887 Visit the Adafruit shop online - http://www.adafruit.com ----------------------------------------- LIVE CHAT IS HERE! http://adafru.it/discord Adafruit on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adafruit Subscribe to Adafruit on YouTube: http://adafru.it/subscribe New tutorials on the Adafruit Learning System: http://learn.adafruit.com/ -----------------------------------------

Top 3 Value Bombs: 1. If you're not building community, you will be left behind straight up. The community doesn't have to be big. You can start simple. 2. No matter what happens with technology and how fast things change, the one thing will remain true with business and success and that is helping people and serving them. 3. Community building, it's not really about us as the creators. It's not so much about the information. It's about the connective tissue that binds the people together. And that's the really important shift. Business growth without the overwhelm.
