Reading 1-Wire iButtons using Cypress PSoC 3 and 5/5LP

Previously I posted about using a standard UART to read and write to 1-Wire devices. In this post I look at how to read and write to these devices using Cypress PSoC devices.

 

LED Matrix built and working

I’ve assembled and coded up the LED Matrix shield that I designed. It’s running on an Intel Galieo, but should also be compatible with other Arduino UNO Compatible boards. Assembly pictures and video demos are included.

IoT DevKit Linux build, SD Card Image

I have now uploaded a copy of the SD Card image. You can find it here. It is compressed using bzip2 compression. It is designed for an 8GB SDHC Card. It will work on larger cards, but part of your card will be unused. This blog post explains how to burn it to an SD […]

 

Enclosure for Galileo

I have designed a partial enclosure for Galileo. Using the STEP files below you can 3D Print it yourself. I have not had one made yet, so cannot guarantee it’s a good fit, but I’m reasonably confident.   The STEP files for the enclosure are here.         The STEP files for the […]

 

Putting nano on Galileo

In this post I look at how to put my current favoured linux text editor, nano, onto Galileo. My galileo is running the SD Card based linux image available from Intel’s IoT ADT page. This image includes all the dev tools required to build projects from source. You can use it to develop your own software, […]
