Macrofab Engineering Podcast

Podcast Notes Parker designed the Macro Duino! Basically a Arduino clone using Type C USB, a FT230X as the USB UART bridge, and proper power switching with the Ti TPS2113A. See Figure 1. Also supports 3.3V and 5.0V. Earlier this week Parker had an article about adding external Part Libraries and DRC rules to Eagle. Check it out here. Some new work on the PinHeck Pinball System. Parker is working on adding the Octavo OSD3358 to replace the Parallax Propeller as the A/V processor. Stephen has been working on his Brewing Rig. He is giving a talk at Destination Codes about the Brewing Rig since it will involve programming and hardware. For flow control, Stephen is using a Atlas Scientific flow meter and a motorized ball valve from Amazon. LattePanda is the platform Stephen wants to use for the Brewing Rig. Runs Windows10. KAIST process engineers, the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology, have developed a chip packaging technology that creates flexible integrated circuits. The substrate they de
