Nice Electronic Dictionary

This embedded electronic dictionary can do and say anything. The most impressive support to me is the English to Arabic and Arabic to English support. The only problem I would have with this device is I would open it up before I would even use it! I would also like to know what TTS software if any, that they use for there device.

Artistic side of me hitting again!

Nice eval board but is it really cheap?

For 850$ you can run linux on a ARM920T without ripping your hair out trying to get it to work. This eval comes with everything you need including design documents, it could be a good investment for embedded linux newbies. The best part is the touch panel. Currently I am looking for a simple development platform for a simple game that I am developing on the side. No details on the game just yet since school and work are taking up way to much time!

Ahmadinejad and the Holocaust

What the Holocaust demonstrates is the danger of a one-party state. It shows what can happen when a group of true believers, convinced of the superiority of their own ideas, have unchecked power. They are then free to rewrite history to suit their political ends, and crush those who disagree or protest . . . or who worship God in a different way.

Like, say, the mullahs in Iran.

Great python statistics info site.

There was some graphing module I used once for work, but I dont remember the name of it. When I go back to work I will find out.

Ahoy, mateys ! Thar be Jewish pirates!

One such pirate was Moses Cohen Henriques, who helped plan one of history's largest heists against Spain. In 1628, Henriques set sail with Dutch West India Co. Admiral Piet Hein, whose own hatred of Spain was fueled by four years spent as a galley slave aboard a Spanish ship. Henriques and Hein boarded Spanish ships off Cuba and seized shipments of New World gold and silver worth in today's dollars about the same as Disney's total box office for "Dead Man's Chest."

The only problem is the mp3 files are a little large, but hey its worth the space.

Random Augmented Matrix Solver

Here is a simple program that generates pseudo random numbers based on python's random module. You pick the size of variables and number of equations, the program then it tries to solve the linear system. Pseudo random numbers are also agumented to the matrix for solving the linear system. Putting the matrix into rref is based on rref.py. This modules was done by Adam Sampson and works great! It abstracts fractions in a python class.

School has started, Here is some homework from a matrix analysis class

LCP-H2294, Using the UART0 PinOut. MAXIM HACKED APRT!

Ok, so I was using CrossWorks v1.5 and that was a major source of my problem. If you want to
easliy use the LPC-H2249 CrossWorks v1.6 is the solution. I am still waiting to get some time to build a toolchain on a linux box to compile code for the LPC-H2294. But for now CrossWorks is close enough. So here is the deal If you would like a simple hack to use the UART with the pins provided from the LPC-H2294 must have the right voltage to talk to the serial device of the computer, if thats what your interfacing with. The serial from the pc is 12v and a usb-to-serial provides that 12v when you use it. The LPC-H2294 UART pins are 3.3v so you need to kick it up or down. Instead of building a curcut to do this you can crack open your usb-to-serial and see what kind of chip it has. As far as I know MAXIM Transceivers provide a different voltages on differnt pins. So what a friend of mine suggested was to use those pins instead of what is connected to the serial part of the device. I had a MAXIM MAX213 Chip and used pin 19 for the RX on the UART. Pin 6 was used for the TX on the UART.

Tomorrow I hope to put up the chip numbers, I am way to beat out right now to do shit!

I am a DUMB ASS

I was not using the support package that CrossWorks has, maybe life will be easy now with it. On the other hand right now I have been using sys-dev/crossdev on gentoo to create the needed toolchain for ARM. crossdev -s3 arm . Thats all that I did, now let see if it works.

One of the Best ARM Codes example site.

All of the codes here look nice, compile on opensource compilers and are simple to understand. Im new to the LPC2000 scene and have been working with the LPC-H2294 from olimex. So far I only done blinking leds in CrossWorks, for some reason or another my uart implementation is not working correctly. By monday I should have something working, I hope!

2006 Competition Results,have been out and here is the link to them. Once I get some money I might buy this years winner.

LPC-H2294 OLIMEX BLINKING LED CROSSWORKS

Here is my first sample playing around with the LPC-H2294 on Rowley CrossWorks 1.5 . This very simple program just blinks the LED on the header board, very simple. Most of the good sample code that I have found for the LPC is either not for the LPC-H2294 board or not for CrossWroks. So with some extra time I will post sample code of generic routines that you need to interface with this MCU on CrossWorks 1.5 . I could be missing some very good insight with how powerful CrossWorks is and rewritting a messsy wheel, but its all for shits and giggles. The next post on the LPC-H2294 will be a interface for the UART. I plan on getting a good SPI interface so I can do some LCD programming by the end of the month. Then who knows maybe I will create a LPC-2294 controlled robotic killer bunny. It kills anything it comes in contact with. Ok, now how to flash the LPC-H2294 with the PHILIPS LPC2000 Flash Utility V2.2.1. First set both 1 and 2 on Slide switch one (ICSP) to high, this enables the ICSP Programming. Upload the ARM Flash Release .hex file to the flash. This is done by selecting the filename and then clicking on the Upload to Flash button. You could use the Compare Flash button but it never seems to work for me. Once the .hex file has been uploaded to the flash switch Slide switch 2(boot) to the mode you created your binary for and walla.

LPC-H2294 Has arrived. Getting ready to port the SAM7 LCD stuff from jimbo over to the LPC-H2294 Board. Crossworks rocks for ARM stuff on LPC, I dont know why there is so much AT91SAM7 shit going around those boards suck ass!

As you can see LPC ARM7 chips are the way to go!

I can't stand the AT91SAM7S256. Don't get me wrong I would love this chip and header board that I have. I can't stand the fact that there isn't any good software to flash with the ARM-JTAG! OpenOCD is giving me problems with some kind of I/o perms on 0x378. I have read that you can't upload the .elf files with the ARM-JTAG without some software to link into the right memory locations. I'm not exactly sure if this is correct, but how the hell do you create a .bin file on CrossStudio?

The fight for voip is on! Which company can provide the best "free" voip solution without killing the users with poor quality? Gizmo project looks promising, I think in the near further free voip services are going to end up like the other "free" services that you find online. Examples would be blogs, email, web hosting, etc... I'm sure you all know what I mean and are seeing it right now. The small cost would be to hear some small advertising jingle or watch some flash or java applet loading selected images based on who you call?
