Using pin 26 for ADC seems to be discouraged in Toit.
From what I can see on https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-idf/en/latest/esp32/api-reference/peripherals/adc.html pin 26 should have an ADC converter, so what is the reason for that?
The ESP32 is limited around ADC2:
Since the ADC2 module is also used by the Wi-Fi, only one of them could get the preemption when using together, which means the adc2_get_raw() may get blocked until Wi-Fi stops, and vice versa.
Therefore I suggest using ADC1-pins if WiFi is used for connectivity.
Since All ADC2 Pins Can't be used while using WIFI, You can use ADC1
GPIO32 ADC1_CH04
GPIO33 ADC1_CH05
GPIO34 ADC1_CH06
GPIO35 ADC1_CH07
GPIO36 ADC1_CH0
GPIO39 ADC1_CH03

What I've been trying to do is send UART communications from an STM32 L152RE Nucleo board to an ESP32, however when I attempt to send these communications I get nothing on the ESP serial monitor. What I am able to see is the STM32 sending messages to its own serial monitor which is great but not what I want.
What I've read so far is that UART 2 is connected to ST-Link so that it can do specifically what I've been witnessing and it explains how this can be reconfigured to allow for the messages to be sent to a peripheral UART device but I'm not sure exactly how to do that.
So in the picture below it says to do this I need to "turn off" SB13 and SB14 and "turn on" SB62 and SB63. I don't really understand how to interpret that, other than to mean "remove resistors from SB13 and SB14 and Place them on SB62 and SB63", is this correct?
I know there are another set of UART pins on the board, can I use those instead somehow?
Your guess ist correct. "SB" means "Solder Bridge". It is just a pair of pads which can be connected with a solder ball, like a simple jumper. Setting SB13 to ON means to connect the pads with a solder ball, setting SB62 to OFF means to remove an existing solder ball connection.
Using a different USART is even easier. Have a look at the STM32L151xE Datasheet to find out that e.g. USART1 is available on pins PA9 (TX) and PA10 (RX). According to user manual of the NUCLEO-L152RE board these pins are available on the ST morpho connector CN10: PA9 at Pin 21 and PA10 at Pin 33.
Is it possible to send out a custom message frame on I2C dev from Linux? I am using an i.MX7D board and i would like to use "/dev/i2c-0" device like a simple "serial tty" to "write(fd, bytes, count)". My goal is to send out a single byte for example 0xAB on I2C without any specific slave address and without automatic stop/start bit inserting in my frame.
So i like to make my full custom I2C frame then send it out from Linux. Is it possible, is there any user-space programing techniques in C/C++, Python or any API for it in Linux?
No you can't, because this is limited by the hardware, if you are using the I2c interface, the hardware will limit what you can do.
One way to try is that you can use gpio to simulate i2c or any interface you want to. Many chips support setting the i2c interface to gpio, then you simulate a clock with one gpio, and simulate high and low level with another gpio.
But I don't recommend it, because if you don't follow the i2c protocol, you can't communicate with other i2c devices
Connect two GPIO lines to the I2C bus in addition to the I2C interface. Normally, these will stay tri-stated. When you need to send the magic byte, enable them to send clock and data, then disable them. These won't interfere with I2C, which only drives the bus when transmitting.
I just started with microchip world.
I'm about to buy a PicKit3 and i've seen it can outputs from 1.8V to 14V MCLR.
The pic i will use is the PIC16F1829 and it should work with MCLR # 5V.
In the datasheet it seems i would need a zener/shunt to limit the voltage.
First of all isn't there a board ready to play with?
Can i use LVP? If so using MPLab 8 IDE how do i change in LVP?
Is the pin connection the same?
Since i haven't bought it yet i would rather avoid burning a pic
Regards,
Notes at the bottom of page 345 in the PIC16F1829 data sheet (DS40001440E) recommends using a voltage limit circuit when using the ICD2 device programmer.
According to Microchip this is "not required" when using the PICkit3.
Get a few extra PIC16F1829 just in case.
You ask about boards ready to use, take a look at the Curisotiy Nano boards
https://www.microforum.cc/topic/9-microchip-xpress-evaluation-boards
These are ready to use and do not need any programmer. You can simply send a file to these devices over USB. They are also have debugging capability.
In terms of the 14V on MCLR, the device is designed to handle whatever pulse will be generated by the PICkit3, so you do not need any protection for the PIC against that. In fact limiting the voltage on that pin will prevent the device from programming so you definitely do not want to do that. If you are however using this pin to connect to other parts on your board the other parts probably will need protection.
You can most definitely use LVP, just be careful, it is possible to use LVP to disable LVP, and then the only way to get it back on is to use HVP!
Lastly in the IDE under programming options you can change the mode there (Use low voltage programming mode entry)
In the IDE i've set the voltage appropriately and everything went ok on its own.
I didn't have to enable anything fancy
I'm eventually trying to use transparent data transmission to pass messages between the mobile SDK and an onboard device using the A3 API/UART port.
Right now I used DJI assistant to output a timestamp to the API port at 1hz. When I connect a TTL>USB device, I see garbage data coming through. When I connect an oscilloscope with a protocol analyzer, I see one frame every second, but the frame is variable size. The ASCII representation of what does come through is nonsense.
I have double checked that baud is set correctly (and have tried other baud rates). I've made sure the grounding is proper. I've tried probing the pin on the actual A3 port (to remove possibility of EMI on the serial cable). It seems like I'm getting garbage data on the serial line, or I don't know how to decode it properly.
Hi，maybe you can refer to the open-protocol of M100 Link.I think it's difficult to decode the protocol of N3,unless DJI publishes that。
I am trying to use the expansion header to control a couple motors and auxiliary task mechanism. For this I am using the appropriate pins as GPIO and merely attempting to send high or low signals as needed by the robot. (For instance, I might need the robot to move forward and so I'd send high signals on both sets of pins, whereas if I needed the robot to turn I'd send a high signal to one pin and a low to the other.)
However, the problem is that the pins will only stay high! I've followed the conventions for sysfs just via the terminal, and, although I'm able to set the "values", "active_lows", etc. to 0 or 1, I can't actually get the pins to send 0V. After checking the beagle.h file I used for u-boot it looks like the multiplexer mode is configured correctly. This is also reflected when I get the info from sys/class/gpio/gpio%/% and sys/kernel/debug/gpio. Furthermore I don't get any errors or indication from anywhere that there is something wrong...it just doesn't work!
What should I do? For the first time in my life I have seemingly exhausted the internet...
details:
Beagleboard xm rev c1
ubuntu 12.04
kernel 3.6.8-x4
Im pretty new to the beagle board and I have recently been trying to configure the GPIO pins on my classic beagleboard c4, which i believe should be fairly similar.
Half of my GPIO pins seemed to work fine and the other half seemed to remain high or low no matter what i did. Even though they were configured the same way as the working pins in /sys/class/gpio/
have you tried to use other gpio pins?
I ended up following http://labs.isee.biz/index.php/Mux_instructions
to configure the mux to 4 and now i can control the pins that were not working.
I basically used the command:
sudo echo 0x004 > /sys/kernel/debug/omap_mux/(mux 0 name)
where (mux 0 name) was the name of the subsystem for the mux 0 setting for the gpio pin you wish to configure
ie. for gpio 183 on beagleboard c4
sudo echo 0x004 > /sys/kernel/debug/omap_mux/i2c2_sda
Though I had to change permissions to modify these files
As I said I am pretty new to the beagleboard and ubuntu but this worked for me so I thought I would share it with you, I hope it is of some help.

It seems that the beagleboard expansion pins are numbered in alternating fashion, as clearly and professionally depicted here.
Thanks to everyone for your help. I now know way more than I should about GPIO on OMAP systems (and so do you). Good luck on finals/life!**
tl;dr I'm an idiot!
