Re: NodeMCU boot loop after fresh install

This morning I tried another board from the same batch. It comes with lua installed so before flashing micropython onto it I tested it with lua: same behavior. The board continuously resets out of the box. So I've wasted rather a lot of time on a faulty batch of boards. I really kicked myself when I...

Re: NodeMCU boot loop after fresh install

Thanks for the tip Phil.

I flashed with the -fm dio option, also with 115200 baud.

Am I right to assume that since the flash write is verified then the problem is not with the flashing?

Re: NodeMCU boot loop after fresh install

I hoped it was something simple or a known issue but I suppose not.

[Solved] NodeMCU boot loop after fresh install

Hi All, I have a new NodeMCU which has a problem after flashing micropython 1.10 onto it. The repl appears and responds for a short time (<1s) but then is unresponsive, i.e. nothing I type is echoed back to the terminal. After about 8s then mcu is reset by the hardware wdt and the process begins aga...

Re: ADC simultaneous sampling?

You might consider the ADC.read_timed_multi method. This was intended for exactly this purpose, it produces good phase measurements at frequencies over 50KHz. The sampling isn't simultaneous but relative to 50Hz it's extremely close. Thanks for this, I don't know why I didn't find this myself in th...

You might be able to get something to work by tweaking the ADC registers directly using the stm module.
That sounds interesting.
A quick google brought me here: http://wiki.micropython.org/platforms/b ... ard/modstm
Am I looking in the right place?

Thanks

ADC simultaneous sampling?

Hi all,

I'd like to measure the phase of a 50Hz ac waveform relative to another.
I think that simultaneous sampling would be the best way to do that which the MCU on the pyboard supports.

Is there any support for this feature?
If not, is there another way to acheive it?

Thanks,
Craig

Re: Looking for a board with 16 ADC channels and WiFi

I'll be investigating the ads devices further but will be looking into the PYBD in due course.

Thanks all!
