  1. @craigjb Who doesn't enjoy 101 #if... #ifndef...? 😆

    Good luck and let us know how it goes.

  2. Huh, I haven't had Vivado reduce LUT usage after synthesis like this before—at least not drastically like this.

    This must be the opt_design stage after synthesis? Or does the placement stage really optimize LUT packing like that?

    It's my first timing using “Flow_AreaOptimized_high" and “ExploreArea”.

  3. Nothing like a little BGA reballing practice to get in the mood for bed. These LTM4630Ys are 1.27 mm pitch with 0.75 mm balls. Easy peasy. These 36A DC-DC modules are also $80 each new.

  4. Anyone ever use the standalone generator?

  5. Well that's kind of frustrating. This LiteDRAM DDR2 controller using sim mode (built-in DRAM model) eats the write transaction, eats the read transaction, and then never responds.

    I followed the init_sequence from the generated C code, but I have a hunch more is required.

  6. It would definitely make it easier to create smaller versions of the SoundSlab grid too. I like this beast, but being modular has advantages!

    I can manufacture the individual boards cheaper, or even stuff them at home since the boards would fit in my “reflow oven” *cough* toaster oven.

    Also, perhaps someone might want a 4x4 grid for some other fun project.

  7. This lunchtime's crazy idea: what if I split the SoundSlab grid into smaller 4x4 pieces + two 1x8 columns for control on the sides?

    Fitting FFC connectors seemed impossible, but guess what? Vertical FFC connectors exist! A 40 pin vertical FFC connector would fit right between keys on the back.

    The boards would have to be mounted flush next to each other, and there's not really room for board-to-board connectors.

  8. What connectors do people like to use for 12V internal power bussing on their projects? (25-50W ish)

    I've been using these PCIe 12V connectors, but they’re kind of chunky. They're super convenient though since I had a pile of cables in the closet, and buying ready-made cables is cheap.

    There are tons of nice power connector families out there, but often you have to make the cables…

    That is what I said about J6.

    But yeah I keep waiting for them to kick in the 'wrong' door & we have 6 or 8 dead #ICE cops and a #Citizen with a #StandYourGround defense.

    For the past several years I ran a project at a multinational entertainment company that is being shuttered b/c of a pull-back on #DEI initiatives (!) & I find myself with time on my hands. I work in HTML & CSS, Wordpress, eCommerce, print design (esp. books).

    If you need help or know anyone who might, please peek at my portfolio. It looks sparse b/c most of the past 6 years are covered by an NDA…thanks for sharing.

  11. I've been working on and off on a blog post on alt text for ages, and I've never actually posted it because I figured it's the same advice people have probably heard a million times.

    But, even in 2023 I keep seeing the same mistakes being made, so I figured it can't do any harm to hit publish!

    So, here is my take on alt text if it's useful: craigabbott.co.uk/blog/how-to-

    We are going to give Red Planet a try tomorrow. Just had an almost neverending battle… 😎

  13. RT twitter @CraigBennett3
    The #RetainedEULawBill #ReulBill returns to @HouseofCommons on Wednesday for Report Stage #REUL

    It represents an unprecedented #AttackOnDemocracy and an #AttackOnNature

    If @RishiSunak is serious about protecting both, he should withdraw this Bill, dreamed up by Jacob Rees-Mog, and think again
