DOS Chip Update... 

Actually, I don't have too much to update, I have been totally swamped with the FIRST Robotics programming challenge.

Next week I hope to integrate the DOS chip with the IFI robot controller, so I will post the new code at that time.

Talking to the DOSonCHIP module - Part II 

Part I of this series talked about low-level communication with the module, which is done through a single, hardware dependent function. It also talked a little about how to execute some of the module commands.

Talking to the DOSonCHIP module - Part I 

So far the discussion about the DOSonCHIP module has focused on the low-level, hardware requirements to talk to the module. I have gotten this working to the point where it is time to move on to the software aspects of using it.

Using an SPI port on a microcontroller 

SPI stands for Serial Peripheral Interface and was invented by Motorola many years ago, and other companys have called the same interface by different names. It is a synchronous protocol, which means that data is clocked out-of/in-to a device with a separate clock signal. More information can be found here, and there are tons of other sites on the Web with info.

Using the DOSonCHIP module from Wearable, Inc. 

I have started playing around with a module that makes it easy to read/write data from/to SD memory chips connected to embedded microcontrollers. I will post some information here to, hopefully, make some other people's experience with the thing easier.
