Re: rtc DD-MM-YY to mysql YYYY-MM-DD-HH-MM

Hi Viktor

Until Steve updates the component, could you not have your server convert?

You may be able to use the DATE_FORMAT and TIME_FORMAT mysql commands to change.

Just a thought.

Yours should be similar. However I haven't used a Mega in ages so.......

Re: AD7606 8-Ch ADC

Hi

Using a PIC EB3 which is an 8-bit PIC running at 40MHz, I connected in an AD7606 set to output parallel data over pins D15..D0.

To capture the data I had a simple loop that would exit after collecting all channels (it is an eight channel simultaneous ADC). I connected D15..D8 to Port A and D7 ...

Re: EB3 GLCD Timeout

Hi Ben

I had some slightly taller PCB spacers so used them to raise the cover. So far so good !

Re: AD7606 8-Ch ADC

Hi Martin

Hopefully tomorrow I will get a chance to modify one for parallel transfer. Eight pulses to get eight channels of data should speed things up a bit :)

Re: AD7606 8-Ch ADC

Hi

Just a quick update.

Not had enough time to explore much further but I did connect in DoutB. This then allowed me to read channels 1 and 5, 2 and 6, 3 and 7 finishing with 4 and 8 at the same time thereby reducing time taken to read by approximately 50% (roughly 24mS).

Re: PWM HighRes (AVR) — Flowcode unofficial component

Hi Martin, well, Martins

This is confusing.... is it one Martin and two (or more) Marten...??

Anyway, this does look a very useful addition and will try and test on an Uno soon.

Re: EB3 GLCD Timeout

Hi

I too have an EB3 board but mine is a PIC, arriving just before I started some lengthy travels and I forgot to take it with me. I was annoyed with myself for that because it is essentially a pretty cool development board with WiFi, Bluetooth, a 2GB SD card and a very useful touch screen inbuilt ...

Re: ESP32 - MQTT Broker

Hi

I noticed that as a client, if I "read" a topic I would then disconnect, forcing me to resubscribe. I was too busy to chase this further at the time but intend to go back and check if it was "me" or an issue.
