Because I’m currently busy with several Raspberry Pi® projects. I found that some of my older MicroSD cards where not preforming as I tough the should. In my experience, one of the highest-impact upgrades you can perform to increase Raspberry Pi® performance is to buy the fastest possible microSD card …
I was well on my way with my Powerunit© project until I stumbled upon a problem. I had created my GitHub repository, uploaded all scripts. Everything deems to go well, but when I installed the scrips on my Raspberry Pi© it returned the error message code=exited, status=203/EXEC. So it’s time …
In my previous blog here, I have figured out the basic hardware & software setup for my Powerunit® project. Now Its time to fine tune the Software. PowerUnit® Project – Software phase Now that the everything is working I want to fine tune the software a little bit more, and …
How to program a ATTiny I discussed in my previous blog here. But I want to go even smaller! In stead of using the “big” DIP IC housing I wan to use the smaller SOP IC housing. But then I realized how to program these tiny things, they don’t fit …
One thing that was still missing for me on the Raspberry Pi®, was the inclusion of some kind of power switch. Considering how many common Raspberry Pi® projects could make use of this functionality. Still, we’ve lived with this problem with the old version for a long time, and there …
For an upcoming project I need to improve the electrical characteristics of the PCB by increasing the width of the Ground and Vcc tracks. Let’s start with the track width. You can control the width of each track manually. The method involves creating custom track’s widths and then applying one …
I want to extend my storage but it also has to be redundant, so I don’t loss any data that’s why I’m going to build a Raspberry Pi® 3 with RAID Storage using Some old 2.5″ HD drives, the Linux native RAID application MDADM. It’s pretty easy and shows you …
For a new project, I was, once again playing around with Kicad, the new version has received a lot of changes, improvements and additions again. For my current project I need a Raspberry Pi Zero W template that is not included in Kicad as standard. So time to make it …
In one of my previous posts (ATTiny85), I detailed an ATTiny85, or in my case the ATTiny85 SMD chip. These chips are al the same only the package is different. In this blog I will use a ATTiny that is breadboard friendly in combination with a I2C OLED. I2C OLED …
In my previous blog here I wanted to extend my storage but it also has to be redundant, so I don’t loss any data. That’s why I build a Raspberry Pi® 3 with RAID Storage using Some old 2.5″ HD drives (You can also use USB sticks). Now we going …
