New design. PWM to Volt. 0 - 10 volt. With a step-up to 12 volt. With feedback to the ADC channels.

A working Arduino Mega WIZFI210 shield. Two buttons on the GPIO, three LEDs, powerregulator with a shutdown, connected to two softserial ports on the Arduino (INT0/INT1). Programmed in Bascom-AVR.

This is great. An Arm DSO Nano. Received it, played with it for a few days and upgraded it to the BenF 3.62 software. Saved an image of a Arduino Nano PWM signal to the on-board micro-SD card.

First steps connecting the wireless module WIZFI210 from Wiznet to my network. Same trick as with the WIZ610wi, creating scripts in TeraTerm. Works very well. Some small questions still so I am going to contact Wiznet support.. My Sitecom Access Point expects a WEP key of 13 ASCII characters, but I can only send 10 ASCII characters, must go over the datasheet again.
Surfing the Internet showed me a WizSmartScript program and got a link from Wiznet to download program, scripts and tools. Will put a link on my homepage, because I am allowed to distribute it. Here a picture of the WizSmartScript program. Very handy.

ILI9325 controlled display, 320 x 240 with touchscreen. Reading a BMP-picture 24 bit from a on-board SD-card. FAT formated, with Bascom AVR-DOS. Software written by SIX1, some special assembly routines from MWS to speed things up, and adapted for the ILI9325 controller. Picture of the original picture and picture how it is shown on the display.

Jinbuhm Kim and June-Woo Ryu from Wiznet are visiting Europe. They showed me some new Arduino shields with a W5200 ethernet controller and a WizFI210 wireless module. Looks very nice.

Something new to test, a WizFI210 module from Wiznet. On a evaluationboard with RS232. A bit cheaper than the WIZ610WI and faster in making a connection to a access point. A single module has been send to SIX1 so perhaps, who knows, a new Bascom application will be born soon.

Now with large font.

Initializing, clear screen, draw pixel, text with font 8×8 all working. Only some trouble with a larger font, have to figure that out… Nice clear display. Used a lot of code from SIX1 but using other registers for the set_window command.

Has SIX1, Michael Kocher, made software for the ILI9320 display controller, I managed to get the ILI9325 controller running with Bascom-AVR. ILI9320 8-bit wide, ILI9325 16 bit wide. On an Arduino Mega with a ITDB02 Mega shield v1.1. First of all had to use two complete ports and some single pins for RS, CS, WR and Reset. And second there are some differences in registers. Trying to integrate the ILI9325 code in the code of SIX1, which can be found on the Offical German Bascom-forum www.bascom-forum.de

Today the postman delivered a Arduino Mega shield with the WIZ830 ethernetcontroller, VS1053 MP3-decoder, 128 Kb SRAM and micro-SD-slot. It is from SIX1, Köcher Elektronik from Rossdorf Germany. Small piece of art. It will be programmed in Bascom-AVR.
