RaspDCC: the software for the PIC
Dig into the new RaspDCC repository on GitHib! The source code to programm the expansion shield is available!
RaspDCC: explore the PIC12F1840
The PIC12F1840 is the centre of the expansion shield, the most important IC. Let’s have a deeper look at this component…
Raspberry DCC: Voltage supply
In this chapter of the development I take some time to describe the part of the schematic responsible for the voltage supply to the Raspberry, the expansion shield and the track
Raspberry DCC: list of components
After the release of the schematics, here some additional information: the datasheets of the components.
Raspberry DCC: expansion shield schematics
Finally the first technical document is available, take a look at the schematics!
Raspberry DCC: ideas for the first revision and map of the project
Hello again! I described the idea for a Raspberry Pi based DCC central station, well I want first to highlight some design choices that have to be done for a first revision in the project. The Raspberry offers an expansion port, with some GPIO pins, voltage supplies (5V and 3.3V) and interface pins. One of the
Raspberry DCC: expansion shield that transforms your Raspberry Pi into a DCC central station
I wanted to practise in microcontroller programming and came out with an idea… I own a Raspberry, which is very is easy to program thanks to python, and offers a lot of features that enable it to be easily expanded. I used to program PIC microcontrollers and really liked it, so why not to think about something where
