Hi everyone, just wanted to wish everyone happy holidays. Nothing new to add to the tutorials if you guys were waiting for it. Been pretty busy with a broken bathroom, refrigerator, and tons of left over food without proper refrigeration.

Non-Activity

Posted on December 21, 2011 by jliu83

Hi All, not much going on lately. It’s been 6 weeks since the last update and I haven’t really gotten much work done. The composite USB section is in the works, but with the break coming up, I don’t know when I’ll be able to post it. I’m renovating my bathroom right now so all my free time is spent at Home Depot. For some reason, I always end up spending 2 hours when I only need to get some screws. Maybe I’ll post some pictures up.

Happy Holidays,
-J

Churning out more Tutorials

Posted on November 3, 2011 by jliu83

Another section of the tutorial is complete! If you guys want to build a USB based debugger, head over to the USB tutorial section.

In other news, the bitter northeast winter is almost among us! Fortunately I have enough fleece and hoodies to get through the ordeal. Man, did it get cold all of the sudden on the east coast. I was planning to do some yard work last weekend, but I think it might have to wait until spring.

First part of the USB custom communications device

Posted on October 19, 2011 by jliu83

From what little feedback I’ve heard, it seems like people are enjoying the USB tutorial for the PIC24. The next goal is to create a device that can talk back and forth with a host. I’ve added a new section that specs out the communications protocol for a custom communications HID device, as well as some example of hypothetical transmissions. The next update will complete the design of the device. Get a load of the write up here.

In other news, I’ve just gotten back from vacation and it was very relaxing. I went to visit a friend in Turkey for a few days and that region of the world is absolutely beautiful. It is not all sand and camels as the traditional stereotype would make you believe.

Kicked Off by Adsense

Posted on September 28, 2011 by jliu83

Well, apparently I got a letter from Adsense saying that I am a risk to Google’s advertising network. They have disabled my Adsense account and decided not to pay me what they owe. It really feels like Google is the new Microsoft (in a bad way). Anyways, I am currently on vacation and will be back to writing articles very soon. For now, I’m going with AdBrite as an Advertiser. If you would like to advertise on Engscope please let me know.
