Great, thumb up for your project! I've never tried that, but maybe two shift registers could help, e.g. of type 74HC166.

Hi, I have collect together some files here that I believe are not uninteresting for use with GCB. It's about a CDC bootloader for the PIC16F145x chips, whose USB functions can also be used for custom applications. The bootloader appears with a COM port in the Windows Device Manager. Since almost all programming languages can access COM ports, it's relatively easy to write PC applications that can communicate with the own program on the chip. Here's the background to my project: About 12 years ago,...

Thank you for your comment. Indeed, it's a AM-radio. I've never looked at it that way before. You can only receive one radio station, and this station has a very boring playlist. In the 1980s, a trade magazine published instructions for building a DCF77 receiver. It had an intermediate frequency of 625 Hz. This frequency pulsed with the time signals. To tune the receiver, you had to listen to this tone for a long time. I still remember that annoying sound very well.

Hi, I'm pleased to announce the completion of the porting of the Thallium core to the ATmega128 and the adaptation of the corresponding application examples. Since someone might be interested in seeing my test environment, I've included a picture, even though I'm sure I wouldn't win any awards with this setup. Ralf

Thanks!

Hi, I've written four different program examples for button implementation with Thallium: 1.) The action occurs immediately upon pressing the button. 2.) The action occurs when the button is released. 3.) The action occurs immediately upon pressing the button, and there's a repeat function. 4.) The action occurs when the button is released, and there's an on/off function. Each example is available for the AVR128DA28, ATmega328PB, and ATmega2560 chips. Because there are 12 files, I've bundled them...

Thanks! I've noticed that I have to think for a long time, every time the program needs to queried a single button at a port. Therefore, I will publish some templates about this today or tomorrow.

Hi, I am pleased to announce the completion of four new files for Thallium today. These consist of porting the Thallium core to the ATmega2560 controller and adapting the corresponding application examples. Cheers Ralf
