To "commercialize" my TFT project, I could not use the large 40-pin connector on the TFT-Proto, so I created a new PCB to mount the TFT to.

To turn my project into something to sell, I could not use the 0.1" 40-pin connector, so made a new PCB to mount the TFT to, using a Flat Flex Cable (FFC) connector.  It is a 0.5mm spacing type.  Cables are available from Digikey, Newark, etc. (search FFC 40 pin).

Used EAGLE 5.11, gerber files included in .ZIP.  Tested fine.  I have attached for reference the schematic of the dsPIC for this new product, showing the 40-pin connector on the PIC side.

Store STRUCT data in FLASH on dsPIC33

dsPIC33 has no EEPROM, and I needed to store my non-volatile data. I had no EEPROM on this board, so I am using the top 1K of FLASH to store my STRUCT that holds all my power-on data.

Digital Low Pass Filtering - or how to add more bits of resolution to an ADC!

5

This algorithm uses a weighted averaging approach to filter or "smooth" DC steady state or slowly changing levels. It has an exponential component, so the trade-off is TIME. This algorithm is adapted from an article in EDN Times Magazine May25, 2006.

MMB skeletal framework to change screens, uses state machine

0

Basic framework I created to build a prototype. Shows how to use a simple state machine to control program flow, screens, etc. Updates value on the screen every second. Implemented a one second timer. Thought it may serve as a launch point for someone building a prototype of a custom board.
