00:01.44 | pingbat | is the open pandora actually open? |
00:02.05 | pingbat | can't find any detailed hardware info |
00:06.30 | MonMotha | I have not used kicad |
00:06.59 | MonMotha | the only ECAD packages I have used to any real extent are gEDA/pcb, OrCAD, PADS, and Altium Designer/DXP |
00:07.08 | MonMotha | oh, and I guess Eagle |
00:07.50 | MonMotha | I played around a little in Allegro, but never enough to really figure out how to do much of anything. The interface seemed even weirder than PADS |
00:08.27 | pingbat | i would imagine that weird could be good given time |
00:10.11 | MonMotha | dunno |
00:10.28 | MonMotha | I consider PADS "weird", and I've never managed to find it "good" even though I used it for several months |
00:11.28 | pingbat | it's an odd activity |
00:12.07 | MonMotha | one thing I like about the Altium product is that everything is available both via menus and short hotkey sequences that correspond to the menus |
00:12.21 | MonMotha | makes it easy to find something you don't use often or that is new to you, but the hotkey sequence is then immediately obvious |
00:12.49 | MonMotha | PADS has this "modeless command" dialog that is rather intimidating and difficult to "explore" |
00:14.03 | pingbat | do you mean that the hotkey sequence is next to the menu option ala OSX |
00:14.26 | MonMotha | kinda |
00:14.49 | MonMotha | basically it's like the standard windows "alt+X" to get to a menu option with hotkey "X", but they've removed the requirement for alt |
00:14.58 | MonMotha | and the hotkeys tend to be something you can remember |
00:15.02 | MonMotha | p for place, then p for part |
00:15.07 | MonMotha | j for jump, l for location |
00:15.12 | MonMotha | j for jump, c for component |
00:15.16 | MonMotha | things like that |
00:15.46 | pingbat | i saw another layout editor that was an alternative to PCB, open source, 'innovative' human interface design |
00:15.53 | pingbat | that sounds good |
00:15.53 | MonMotha | anything on what would be the current context menu is a single key, then you can go deeper if you want (and it actually displays the menu to you) |
00:16.32 | MonMotha | the old CAD software often has a lot of idioms that make no sense on modern UIs. Designer tends to be mostly what you'd expect. |
00:17.02 | MonMotha | Designer is what was known as Protel DXP back in ~2002-2003. DXP was a complete rewrite of Protel 99SE with some stuff borrowed from P-CAD, so it's fairly "new". |
00:17.11 | MonMotha | OrCAD and PADS haven't seen major changes since the mid-90s |
00:17.30 | MonMotha | I can get OrCAD to bring up a Win3.1 style file picker dialog :) |

00:48.09 | davidc__ | MonMotha: that have like 20 keys all reachable without moving one hand |
00:48.16 | davidc__ | MonMotha: and can be programmed with key macros |
00:52.31 | pingbat | like an Optimus Maximus keyboard? |

00:54.33 | prpplague^2 | davidc__ OH |
00:54.40 | prpplague^2 | davidc__ you purchase a copy? |
00:54.52 | davidc__ | prpplague^2: going to be in a few days |
00:54.57 | prpplague^2 | davidc__ we have a new channel |
00:55.05 | prpplague^2 | davidc__ ##AltiumDesigner |
00:55.06 | davidc__ | prpplague^2: just evaluating it right now, but it certainly beats the pants of eagle |
00:55.16 | prpplague^2 | davidc__ ahh you get the 30 day eval? |
00:55.27 | davidc__ | prpplague^2: yeah, I got sold on it in 2 days :P |
00:55.33 | prpplague^2 | i've got it just have installed it yet |
00:55.50 | davidc__ | haha, you bought a $5k piece of software but haven't installed it? :P |
00:56.03 | prpplague^2 | naw the 30 day eval |
00:57.07 | davidc__ | ah. It seems pretty awesome, especially since I'm coming from eagle |
00:57.22 | davidc__ | I have a 3-BGA design coming up |
00:57.24 | davidc__ | with tons of diff pairs all over the place |
00:57.28 | davidc__ | and I really don't feel like dealing with eagle for it |
00:57.53 | prpplague^2 | indeed |
00:58.12 | prpplague^2 | i'm really interested in the annotation features |
01:00.14 | davidc__ | prpplague^2: what cad environment are you coming from? |
01:00.48 | prpplague^2 | gEDA->eagle->orcad+pads |
01:01.27 | davidc__ | prpplague^2: ah. I was considering going eagle->gEDA, but it looks like I can do everything I want with altium, and the PCB design tools are really awesome |
01:01.47 | prpplague^2 | $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ |
01:01.53 | prpplague^2 | thats the big thing |
01:02.03 | prpplague^2 | trying to decide on the money |
01:03.15 | davidc__ | yeah, its expensive |
01:03.22 | davidc__ | but I figure it makes me productive enough to be worth it |
01:03.35 | davidc__ | prpplague^2: what did you do the hammer in? |
01:04.05 | prpplague^2 | davidc__ rusty and i did it in orcad+pads |
01:04.34 | davidc__ | ah. I'd be interested in hearing how the altium PCB layout tools compare to PADS |
01:04.34 | prpplague^2 | davidc__ i'm really a newbie in alot ways on the hardware side |
01:04.56 | prpplague^2 | davidc__ yea i soon finished with this project, so i'll have time to tinker |
01:05.22 | prpplague^2 | davidc__ i'm interested in how they import existing orcad and pads projects |
01:06.04 | prpplague^2 | davidc__ advanced circuits has been pushing their new project app |
01:06.56 | davidc__ | hmm? |
01:07.17 | prpplague^2 | one sec, let me get the url |
01:07.22 | davidc__ | oh, their PCB artist thing? |
01:07.45 | prpplague^2 | http://www.pulsonix.com/ |
01:08.05 | prpplague^2 | they've taken gEDA and had a design firm working on it for about 18 months |
01:08.39 | prpplague^2 | davidc__ they have a free trial |
01:09.07 | prpplague^2 | i almost felt like doing a comprehensive article on the leading eda stuff |
01:09.21 | davidc__ | erm, if they took geda, then why isn't it open source :P |
01:10.04 | pingbat | isn't geda GPL |
01:10.08 | davidc__ | it is. |
01:10.21 | prpplague^2 | iirc there was dual license item for the core bits ages ago |
01:10.29 | prpplague^2 | before it went full gpl |
01:10.40 | prpplague^2 | not 100% i had planned to look at it |
01:14.07 | pingbat | i dual screen support a feature? |
01:14.22 | davidc__ | prpplague^2: one good thing I found in altium is that you can save every doc type to an ascii based format |
01:14.30 | davidc__ | [the format is pretty obvious] |
01:15.21 | prpplague^2 | nice |
01:16.11 | davidc__ | yeah, thats a huge one for me |
01:16.21 | davidc__ | It also can connect to any OLE in-house component database |
01:16.28 | davidc__ | and version the component libraries by git. |
01:16.29 | prpplague^2 | OH |
01:16.31 | prpplague^2 | that is nice |
01:19.24 | prpplague^2 | davidc__ so much to learn so little time |
01:19.39 | davidc__ | erm, version the component libraries by SVN |
01:19.40 | davidc__ | not git |

06:07.29 | MonMotha | heh, I think Altium should give me a free copy for all the sales I seem to have gotten them here |

06:08.10 | davidc__ | MonMotha: btw, how do you do ultra-high-pincount schematic symbols? |
06:08.14 | davidc__ | MonMotha: just create it by hand? |
06:08.48 | MonMotha | davidc__: currently yes, but I've been attempting to automate it somehow |
06:09.03 | MonMotha | it is at least nice enough to increment pin number and Xn for you |
06:09.11 | davidc__ | MonMotha: we should talk then; I'm going to be automating it sometime |
06:09.35 | MonMotha | just creating all the pins in some reasonable order so that I can place them on the symbol blocks would be nice |
06:09.35 | davidc__ | Ive got a 700ball BGA that I'm not looking forward to doing by hand |
06:09.41 | MonMotha | yeah, I wouldn't either |
06:09.54 | davidc__ | exactly |
06:10.02 | MonMotha | I did a 144QFP by hand, and I wasn't overly happy to do it |
06:10.09 | davidc__ | looks like I can do it from within the scripting language, either that or I'll figure out how to generate one of formats that I can import |
06:10.18 | MonMotha | I did a 384BGA at my old job. Took like 2 hours. |
06:11.09 | MonMotha | the scripting language looks pretty powerful |
06:11.09 | davidc__ | it does; and they talk about some Altium API or something, but its in beta and you need a beta login |
06:11.13 | MonMotha | I see |
06:11.16 | MonMotha | probably C/C++ bindings |
06:11.19 | MonMotha | or maybe .NET |
06:11.30 | davidc__ | eh, I could deal with either |
06:11.48 | MonMotha | I never really looked into the scripting stuff. I've always been more hardware oriented |
06:12.00 | MonMotha | so I don't usually have the expertise to quickly bang out a script |
06:12.11 | MonMotha | depends on what I'm doing |
06:12.28 | MonMotha | I wrote a big BOM management/procurement system at my old job. It was ugly (code wise), but it worked |
06:12.46 | davidc__ | heh, well I'll trade you; you keep feeding me shortcuts + tips in altium, and I'll make sure my script works in your environment |
06:13.02 | MonMotha | cool |
06:13.05 | MonMotha | will do |
06:13.17 | MonMotha | I used it for like 2 years, so I know it pretty well |
06:13.39 | davidc__ | MonMotha: used, as in you stopped using it? |
06:13.45 | davidc__ | Oh right, you left that job; right right |
06:13.45 | MonMotha | I lost the job I used it at :) |
06:13.58 | MonMotha | job I had in the interim used OrCAD+PADS, but I didn't do CAD work |
06:14.02 | davidc__ | I'm just on the lookout for caveats |
06:14.09 | davidc__ | given that its a hefty chunk of change |
06:14.18 | MonMotha | yeah, it's not "cheap", but it's at least not "expensive" |
06:14.39 | MonMotha | at least as far as ECAD packages go |
06:14.52 | davidc__ | yeah. I figure for what I'll get, it won't be that bad |
06:15.09 | davidc__ | eh; if this first design I'm doing sells 200 copies, I can write off most of the price |
06:15.34 | MonMotha | I'd like to get a copy for myself, but work is offering to buy it, and I'd like to not spend that kind of cash right now, so I'll let them |
06:16.17 | davidc__ | completely understandable |
06:16.32 | davidc__ | I work for myself, so my attempts to get work to buy it are somewhat recursive |

23:07.45 | pingbat | hello |
23:07.54 | florian | hi pingbat |
23:07.58 | pingbat | i'm having trouble with some interrupts |
23:08.35 | pingbat | trying to get an 8kHz interrupt btu it just isn't working |
23:09.47 | pingbat | is it common for interrupts not to trigger when then time between them is too short? |
23:10.18 | pingbat | if being driven by a timer match |
23:10.33 | SpeedEvil | no - strictly. |
23:10.50 | SpeedEvil | but it won't trigger - usually - if you are still in the ISR |
23:11.08 | SpeedEvil | unless you've unmasked it - but then you need reentrant handlers |
23:11.22 | SpeedEvil | might your ISR ever take more than 125us? |
23:11.35 | pingbat | i guess it's possible |
23:11.41 | pingbat | is the memory is really slow |
23:11.48 | pingbat | but i doubt it |
23:12.50 | pingbat | if it did, the match would still trigger a new interrupt and then reset the clock |
23:12.54 | pingbat | so .. |
23:13.32 | SpeedEvil | It depends on the ISR |
23:13.37 | SpeedEvil | Adn the chip |
23:13.45 | SpeedEvil | and how you reenable interrtups |
23:13.51 | SpeedEvil | what are you doing in the ISR? |
23:14.30 | pingbat | reading from the adc |
23:14.42 | pingbat | writing to an array |
23:15.29 | SpeedEvil | do you have code viewable somewhere? |
23:15.29 | pingbat | and doing a check to make sure i am writing into the array |
23:16.39 | pingbat | http://pastebin.com/m6036c9fc |
23:16.48 | pingbat | bit of a mess |

23:21.57 | pingbat | the RAM could be slowing it down that much i guess but i think it's unlikely |

23:31.53 | SpeedEvil | which timer is the voice? |
23:33.34 | pingbat | Timer0 |
23:35.50 | pingbat | main stops executing after i enable Timer0 |
23:36.08 | pingbat | hang on |
23:36.14 | pingbat | seems to be running now |
23:36.18 | SpeedEvil | sprintf can be _huge_ |
23:37.19 | pingbat | yeah but not using it during the Timer0 ISR |
23:37.49 | SpeedEvil | that code seems to simply print the time - not get any audio |
23:38.24 | pingbat | the Timer0 ISR is what records and plays the audio |
23:38.36 | pingbat | by calling Play or Record |
23:39.46 | MonMotha | what arch is this? |
23:40.16 | pingbat | ? |
23:40.23 | pingbat | umm, ARM7tdmi-s |
23:40.26 | MonMotha | ok |
23:41.57 | SpeedEvil | you don't need an explicit return from int after play or record? |
23:42.43 | pingbat | sorry? |
23:43.15 | pingbat | playing and recording are int global variables that i set using JoystickISR |
23:43.40 | SpeedEvil | no - I mean you don't need an explicit return from the ISR |
23:43.49 | SpeedEvil | ? |
23:43.51 | pingbat | no the ISR must return void |
23:44.07 | pingbat | and no return statement is needed |
23:44.12 | SpeedEvil | k |
23:46.04 | pingbat | are you familiar with the ARM7 VIC ? |
23:47.17 | roxfan | vic is not a standard feature of arm7 |
23:47.25 | roxfan | i guess you have an lpc |
23:47.25 | pingbat | really? |
23:47.29 | pingbat | yeah |
23:48.27 | pingbat | i got some Luminary LM3S9B95 in the post today |
23:48.31 | pingbat | quite exciting |
23:49.24 | pingbat | by switching the interrupt to IRQ (slow interrupt) from FIQ (fast interrupt) i have the thing running |
23:49.45 | pingbat | but the ISR doesn't seem to be |
23:50.00 | pingbat | as in main executes |
23:50.12 | pingbat | but the ISR doesn't |
23:51.16 | roxfan | check your startup file, usually it sets up vic to handle only irqs |
23:51.27 | roxfan | not sure if it even supports fiq |
23:51.45 | pingbat | it's in the manual |
23:52.49 | roxfan | hmm indeed it does |
23:53.40 | roxfan | so you changed VICIntSelect setup? |
23:53.44 | pingbat | yep |
23:55.53 | pingbat | both IRQ and FIQ versions of it seem to hang |
23:56.17 | roxfan | maybe try turning on a led in the entry |
23:56.24 | roxfan | and another at the exit |
23:56.35 | roxfan | then you can see where it's stuck at |
23:57.10 | pingbat | thanks to a brilliant piece of design, I have to choose between LED or RAM |
23:57.14 | pingbat | i nees the RAM |
23:57.16 | roxfan | heh |
23:59.36 | pingbat | i wish debugging was set up on this board |
