Do you get reliable monotonic increments/decrements of the counter with this? In my experience the internal decoding does not handle encoders with switch bouncing (which is most of them) very well. I get the best experience, when handling the pins myself in a pin interrupt handler and keeping the p...

BTW 1 aurdinuos guys took my timer method and put it on steroids so when the interrupt fires it sets all 4 channels of the timers so that 4 bits are sent in parallel and then used 4 of these 8x32 matrix https://www.aliexpress.com/item/32983032723.html?spm=a2g0o.detail.1000014.11.2e626af4nEuAOX&gps-i...

Yes, the SPI method could work - and, wouldn't you know it, Nicko has written a MicroPython library to drive WS281B's with SPI . Anyone able to try it out? Incidentally, RMT allows those paging operations much like the circular buffer you described. I had intended to expose that all the way through...

No, the problem with RMT is that the memory has to be pre-allocated and it can be large. We can work around this by pushing interrupts all the way through to MicroPython - so the data is generated on the Python side on-demand but this adds a lot of complexity and pushes timing constraints on to the...

Unfortunately, I believe that is the current state of affairs. I went into a little more detail in the March-April News Roundup . There are a few promising ways we can resolve the issue but, right now, I don't know of any great way to drive that many pixels with the ESP32 from MicroPython. A questi...

I will suspect that 1 of the pin your trying to use is connected to something that is important to the running of the MCU. Try this commit out every line except the first 1 where you import then uncommit 1 line at a time till you find which line is causing the crash then check the schematic for what...

It certainly seem very cheap

I have found this board delivered for $26AUD https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4001048553596.html?spm=a2g0s.9042311.0.0.3da24c4d5Oqsga at that price I just have to get 1. Considering the amount of flash and RAM on this board and the fact it has both a header for a small SPI TFT and a FPC connector for...

Sounds like you have put a considerable amount of time and effort into developing this project. I notice you have also created great dos as well.

If you were to guess the total hours to get your design to this standard how many hours do you think you have spent??

Did you design all the hardware yourself??
