dear fedi, please help
I have my 2 keyboard halves of the beekeeb piantor (non pro) which are just wiring the mechanical switches to the gpios, no matrix
i'm migrating from pi pico to rp2350b-plus-w by waveshare (custom rust firmware which I'm developing)
the board is a breakout board essentially and has a voltage divider for vsense to gp42. that's it
NOW
the left half, is completely fine
the right half though has gone through the following:
- after many flashes, the MCU started looping like crazy on USB, even on boot mode. Enumerated, showed up and insta reboot. probably toast - maybe I did something stupid in the wiring/soldering, no biggie, I have 3 spares
- next spare, all goes good but 1 key starts sticking. it doesnt work when I press it and at some point it gets stuck. all gpios are internally pulled up. I measure it and it gets pulled to around 1.5v. probably toast gpio, no biggie, I have 2 spares
- before I replace the MCU, I grab a new one, flash it and measure all pins and ALL of them get pulled to 3v3, as expected. I put the board on the right half, some time passes, 1 gpio fails and a bit later, another one fails
what the heck is happening??
obligatory AIed and googled to death. I found out about the errata 9 of the 2350 but its not relevant, it has to do with pull downs, not pull ups

So here's where the project sits at the end of day 1 - It's a #Blackberry Q10 keyboard working through a #PiPico #RP2350 controller. I'm making a physical keyboard case for my phone because I'm outrageously tired of virtual keyboards.
That's a PMOD implementation of the Q10 keyboard by Solder Party (shout-out to @arturo182) - I don't think you can buy these anymore but I bought two of them years ago and squirreled them away for the day I'd have a suitable microcontroller for the project.

For the ~3 other #Arduino folks on the planet trying to solve the same problem I am: if you're desperately trying to find a 3.3V version of a #ProMicro with USB type C, Sparkfun make one with a Raspberry #PiPico RP2350 on board - much faster chip than an Atmel 32U4, runs at 3.3 volts, and no more expensive, plus there's the usual exciting range of faithful and creative clones on AliExpress.
The RP2040 also runs at 3V3 but is tolerant of 5V, for those weird in-between projects. #electronics

RE: https://oldbytes.space/@thelastpsion/116345290344668595
And the results are in!
- Pico C
- Rust
- Free Pascal
- Joint with Pico C++, MicroZig and Yarg.
So, what am I going to do? Well, I'm leaning towards porting the existing Arduino C code to the Pico C SDK. I'm currently using one class for encapsulation and abstraction, but I could replace that with structs and static functions. I'm not a great C programmer, but I'm pretty comfortable with it, so it makes sense
However, before I do that, I see a bigger challenge of getting a good setup without using VS Code. I've been using #NeoVim for a while now, and I'd like to get a comfortable setup using that on #Linux.
So, I'm going to try to build Blinky projects for at least Pico C, Rust and Free Pascal, using Linux and NeoVim. Hopefully this will give me a better feel for how well these languages actually suit me. I've never done any Rust before, either, so that's going to be quite the learning curve!
If I have time, I'm going to give Yarg a go, too, because I think the premise is really cool. If I'm on a roll, I'll try #MicroZig too.
And if I really feel like I have the capacity, I'll port the code to one of these other languages.
I'm acutely aware of all the other projects I've given myself to do, such as the SIBO SDK and other small Psion-related projects, not to mention $dayjob and $reallife. So we'll see how things go!
#Pascal #FreePascal #ObjectPascal #RustLang #YargLang #RaspberryPiPico #PiPico #PiPico2 #RP2040 #RP2350
