Re: DS3231 uRTC set / read problems

Update: I connected the DS3231 to my Pyboard v1.1 and using the exact same urtc.py it functions without issue: >>> from machine import I2C, Pin >>> sdapin = pyb.Pin.board.Y10 >>> sclpin = pyb.Pin.board.Y9 >>> i2c = I2C(sclpin, sdapin) >>> import urtc >>> rtc = urtc.DS3231(i2c) >>> rtc.datetime() Dat...

[SOLVED] DS3231 uRTC set / read problems

I now have this Adafruit DS3231 breakout board (with backup battery) connected to my Adafruit esp8266 Feather Huzzah: https://www.adafruit.com/products/3013 Before connecting the DS3231 to the esp8266 I used an Arduino Uno to set and read back the time without issue. On the esp8266 I have version 1....

Re: micropython IDE for linux on PC

Welcome to MicroPython! There is no IDE as there is with Arduino. You can ether enter micropython code interactively through the REPL after connecting with something like "screen" or write program files locally to be copied to the micro-controller's filesystem. If you want something a little more in...

Re: Problem with Multiple ESP8266 and MQTT. Blocked Sockets?

I have also been using MQTT with an Adafruit Huzzah. I have the esp8266 subscribed to a broker, messages being received and actions taken like lighting LEDs and scrolling text across a matrix, all working fine. I tried to "publish" a message from the esp8266 back to the broker over the same "subscri...

Re: Adafruit CircuitPython

(edited original post with blog link and a little additional info) Thanks for the URLs. I like the direction Adafruit is going with MicroPython / CircuitPython. Tony takes seven minutes or so to share some reasoning and strategy at the beginning of the video. Creating more uniform code across multi...

Re: Any experience with the Atmel ATWINC1500 WiFi module

Thanks.

Anyone tried the ATWINC1500? I'm wondering if the drivers built into the downloadable firmware (section Suitable for PYBv1.1 boards, with network drivers for CC3000 and WIZ820io included:) may be compatible with the C1500.

Re: Any experience with the Atmel ATWINC1500 WiFi module

Hi,

Did you ever get the ATWINC1500 working with the Pyboard? I've been contemplating a wifi solution for my Pyboard v1.1.

Thanks,
J

Re: Where to solder in bottom row of header pins?

Dave, Your scripts for entering bootloader mode and installing firmware worked perfectly. I'm running 1.8.6 now. Thank you for writing and sharing these programs!
