My Last Post

This will probably be my last post, considering that I have discovered the DLP protocol. I beasted at the international science fair and am pretty sick of this project. All of the project files will be available at http://lpahome.com/DLP/ including boards designs and decently well commented source code.

Now I have two new projects:
LRHAA: Long Range High Altitude Aircraft
My Super N64 Controller: This one has a blog at http://sn64.blogspot.com/

It's done

It's done. DLP has gone down and I am going to sleep!!!!!

DAD1000 Serial Hacked

I now understand the serial protocol the DAD1000 uses to get configured. It is 500khz clocked serial. You bring SCPEN low then clock out 2 bytes, the first being the address and the second being the data. ADDRESS="0X00AAAA" X is 1 for write and 0 for read. AAAA is the address. I know 0000 is for the +26 line. To enable and set to full power, send
0X00.AAAA.0000.DDDD
0100.0010.0000.0110
0100.0001.0000.0111
0100.0011.0000.0111
0100.0000.0000.0110

Isn't it Pretty

The CNC toaster oven is the best thing since CNC milling.

MEGABoard comes Tomorrow

MEGABoard is my name for the board with everything, a xilinx, 1Gbit of Ram, reset driver, and DMD. I got Hong Kong DAD1000's and built a reflow oven for the Xilinx BGA.

I'm Back

I have been sick and unable to work, but I'm back. I decided the prototype would probably never work, impedance issues and crap. So I'm designing the final ISEF board now. I got two more projectors and discovered the DLP sockets are a standard foxconn part. Cool. The new board should be everything I ever dreamed of(eyes glazed over).

SVGA

I worked today on pinoutting the SVGA DMD. According to projector central the Proxima UltraLight DS1 Projector uses a 1.3" DMD. I don't believe it. It looks more like .8" I will upload pinouts once they are done. I discovered the SR16C is a component of the DAD1000. I need the SR16C pinouts.
