Re: TSSOP20 stm32 MCU board
If you want to develop on the lower cost M0+ based STM32 MCUs I think the STM32 Nucleo boards offer unbeatable value: http://www.st.com/web/catalog/tools/FM116/SC959/SS1532/LN1847?sc=stm32nucleo Nevertheless a nice low-cost platform, but if not building something very specific I think the Nucleo boa...

Re: analog inputs: op-amp + divider - Russian - LMV324IDT
Do you have an oscilloscope ? Although unlikely it might be a problem with the opamp oscillating, some opamps are not "unity-gain stable". I expect the LMV324 to be unity-gain stable: the old National semiconductor datasheet says this: The LMV321/358/324 can directly drive 200pF in unity-g...

Re: analog inputs: op-amp + divider - Russian - LMV324IDT
Is that op-amp input, or harness input that you are measuring the input voltage? Also per figure 23, the positive rail should be off by only 10mV so you are far worse than the expected. Not entirely true: because these inputs have to source about 1.5mA due to the resistor divider you can see a drop...

Re: Crankshaft postion Sensors: VR or Hall?
OEMs must have very good reason to stick to VR sensors: let me throw some arguments in favor of the VR sensor on the table: Phase / offset / accuracy: the great thing of VR is the fact the middle of the teeth is always at the zero crossing of the signal, this makes VR immune to delays and/or phase e...

Re: 2003 Dodge Neon (#9)
For validating PCB shapes, footprints and outline I usually just print them on paper (real size). If you then want check the case I would just use a plate of plastic the thickness of a PCB (which in most cases is 1.55mm or 63 mils I think) and drill manually.. But if you have a 3D printer..

Re: Rover V8
It has been too long since I have worked on CAN.. Anyway there I recall a pitfall with using a 5V CAN transceiver with a 3V3 MCU. For now stick with the 3V3 transceiver on 3V3 MCUs. For 5V (like the MCP2515) you can use the other transceivers. Using the MCP2515 back to back on a breadboard would pro...

Re: DaWaN says: hello from Holland!
Yes it happened on track, on the road I like to keep things safe. Nevertheless I think this was a lesson on safety, I do not want to know what would have happened if I had crashed it in the Füchsrohre (foxhole), because this car would have peaked 195km/u at that point.. This impact was only at about...

Re: DaWaN says: hello from Holland!
Both sorry to hear about the car, and good to hear you made it through. Cycling is good exercise, so that's a + side of the issue. I'll try to remember to peer pressure you. That will probably happen next week. I'm reasonably busy this week, so it would be kind of hard to get done this week. I'm in...

Re: Miata NA 1996, 1.8L stock (#7)
I find the waveform from the OEM ECU quite weird: it is very close to 100% duty cycle on 12V. Is this waveform captured during warm-up? Also: what is the reference here? I guess the idle valve is hardwired to 12V on one side ? As I have a Miata engine in the shed I can have a look at this as well, b...

Re: 20x4 LCD + IIC/I2C/TWI/SPI Serial interface
Has to be tested I guess. For fast SPI lines it is not uncommon to have these fail on cable runs as short as 2 feet, but this interface can be run slower if needed. As a good practice you should insert a series resistor with the "E" line to limit reflections / ringing. Series termination s...

Nice!
Creating a KiCAD footprint / board for these chips is on my to-do list (I will not forget it), but time has been a bit sparse in the last two weeks.

Re: Frankenso - ECU shield compatible with OEM case
To PCB mount, or remote mount, that is the question. Some want the electrical signal, which prevents the air from dampening, others want it PCB mounted, which allows for less chances of electrical noise. In the past I've put on a PCB version, and allowed for wires that can be remoted. I would tend ...
