  • This is part 1 of a 6 part series that is focused around the game Shenzhen I/O. In the series I will cover designing a custom printed circuit board, firmware, and mechanical enclosure to replicate the first puzzle in the game, the "Fake Security Camera".

      @@Ryanorzone Well, I just finished 3D printing the camera shell, and I still have to solder up the board and program it. I have shooting for this Friday. I may even do a bonus part where I go back over the design and talk about a few things I would have done differently. But that will be another part for another week. :)

    So I just wanted to come back here all these months later and point you to my channel where I’ve posted a few videos of me doing arduino and Pi stuff. I made an LED matrix! Hand soldered!
    I’ve also had some PCBs made from JLCPCB and done some Arduino stuff with bare 328 chips as well. My next project is some ham radio boards which is a BIT more complex with RF involved.
    Oh, and I still don’t really GET electronics. But man, having a PCB made is such a personal level-up.

    • @KuittheGeek
      @KuittheGeek  4 роки тому +1

      I am glad you came back as it sounds like you have been busy! LED matrices are definitely fun projects, I did a few during my undergraduate work. Good luck on your ham boards, there are a lot of things that you have to watch out for when you do RF design, so you don't have or cause interference with other devices. JLCPCB does a pretty good job with boards, and they are usually pretty affordable, which is always a plus for making small runs for prototyping or one-two offs. And as far as getting electronics, it sounds like you are at least on the right path, and it takes time. I find it can be very difficult because it isn't something that you can just see and understand, you have to try to grasp a lot of abstract concepts and ideas. I find there are a lot of water analogies for a lot of things. Again, best of luck with your projects.

    I assume that's a ceramic filter cap and an electrolytic buffer cap you drew (without the polarization mark)? I've been out of formal electronics design for a couple decades now but I don't think I've seen the "European" and "American" capacitor symbols used that way before. :) Looking forward to the rest of the series!

    • @KuittheGeek
      @KuittheGeek  5 років тому +3

      You are correct in your assumptions. And yes, I use Kicad as my main EDA suite, and it has a mix of the "American" and "European" symbols. However, I have used these for as long as I can remember, and I just forgot the add the polarity ;) I always use that symbol for a polarized cap, so I always just remember that's what I mean, and forget to annotate it accordingly.

      This is the official game site and it has links to Steam, GOG, and Itch.io. Zachtronics has a bunch of other games that make you think. I definitely would recommend looking into their library. www.zachtronics.com/shenzhen-io/

    I'd probably do the same, but with internal oscillator just because I'm a cheap bastard...
    ALSO, to make the whole thing more faithful to the game, I think it would be very funny to use the cheapest Chinese micro you can find!
    I found PADAUK Tech PMS150C-U6 on lcsc.com. It costs a whooping $0.0365 if you buy 10pcs and $0.0273
    if you buy 100!
    It's got 6 pins; 2 for power and 4 GPIO; more than enough!

    • @KuittheGeek
      @KuittheGeek  5 років тому

      That definitely would have been an interesting way to go. Then I could fight the realism of the poor Chinese documentation. I definitely could have just used the internal oscillator because it really didn't do much for the circuit. I do plan on doing a review of the design, and that was one of the things I was going to talk about. Thanks for the comment!
