Apparently, #SparkFun has "temporarily" (since 2016) suspended shipping lithium batteries outside the contiguous United States.

Como cuando ayudas a tu sobrina a desarrollar el prototipo de un Lápiz Inteligente que corrige la ortografía para el Concurso Nacional de Prototipos y Proyectos de Emprendimiento 2025.

SparkFun were great at keeping all of the product details for their retired products on their website. But that's all gone with the redesign.

If you've got some old SparkFun kit, you're going to be relying on the Internet Archive a lot now.

40 years later, still enjoy tinkering. #electronics #maker #raspberrypi #waveshare #sparkfun

TIL about the SparkFun SerIO board. This now-discontinued product is an even-simpler-than-Arduino physical computing device. When connected to a USB port, it appears as a serial device. Send it simple commands at 57600 bps and it will read/write pins for you. For example, this configures Pin 13 as an output, and sets the value high:

> C,13,1
Pin: 13 Input/Output: 1
> W,13,1
Pin: 13 Value: 1

This lights the 'Stat' LED

[Перевод] Quake на плате микроконтроллера с 276 килобайтами ОЗУ

Введение В прошлом году в рамках празднования 30-летней годовщины Doom мы продемонстрировали его порт для платы Sparkfun Thing Plus Matter MGM240P. В этом году мы портируем Quake на плату Arduino Nano Matter.

Look at these beautiful little RP2350 jewels.
Can’t wait to start hacking on them!
Looks like they run the Pico2 build of #CircuitPython just fine!

So I've got a #SparkFun weather module I've been running #MicroPython on for a couple of years. It's almost perfect and I'd leave it alone except that:

* MicroPython doesn't support power management *facepalm*

* MQTT has been the Achilles heel on this project, and when something goes wonky in a few places it utterly misses what's going on and can't reset itself against @homeassistant so it juat kinda disappears.

Sooooo close

So I'm doing a quick rewrite into #ESPHome and accepting that I was only mostly successful on the original code.

Finally, I've created a #RISC-V #Assembly code which works! https://gitlab.com/vazhnov/native-blink_asm_sparkfun_red-v_thing_plus/-/blob/main/Blink-all-GPIO_asm/src/gpio.S
Thanks to #PlatformIO, #SiFive and #SparkFun.
