I’m curious how binary cant work for admech since day 1. At first, I thought it’s just high speed alternation in frequencies of sounds to denote 0 and 1, just like how computer cable does with voltage. So I wrote a python script to convert natural language to binary code then to sound based on the idea (so that I can curse in binary in ttrpg). However, since the human auditory cortex can only distinguish sound about 20ms apart, the current commonly used binary coding method (Unicode) that requires 8 bits to encode for one letter (16 bits for one character in Mandarin) would make binary cant less efficient than natural language through the bare ear. As a result, binary cant users not only need vocal implants but also auditory implants to receive info (or perhaps cortex implants to decode). Based on these assumptions, binary cant would be able to happen in sound frequencies not perceivable by the original human cochlea so techpriests conversation can be extremely quiet. And more efficiently, just through data cables.

Or it could be the other way around, scientists might develop more efficient binary language without basing it on the symbol system of natural languages (I’m not that familiar with linguistics so I don’t know if this is possible or not).

However, the sound techpriests made in the game mechanicus doesn’t sound like my assumption. There are definitely more than 2 pitches used in the conversations (which makes it less binary...) and they seem to be faster than natural language. I still couldn’t figure out what’s happening here. Do the twisting pitches actually encode more than one bit? Is binary cant actually an analog signal encoding a digital signal? Or is the sound effect just mean to sound better for the game?

The binary curse program (turn the sound on!):

Custom Clock Inserts

Quartz Clock Movements Open Your Vistas

Quartz clock movements are the modern-day electronic matching of conventional, mechanical control centers for timekeeping. However quartz clock movements (likewise referred to as clock electric motors) have no springs, weights, wheels, or gears to track time; instead, the quartz crystal generates a stream of pulses that are extremely fast and extremely steady, meaning that checking and subdividing the pulses provides an exact step of elapsed time. Let us see how these marvelous tools can open up a brand-new globe to you.

Non-quartz clock movements run mechanically, utilizing rotational force to turn a flywheel and a collection of equipments to determine specific time units (i.e., secs). Without regulation, the flywheel would certainly spin also quick, which is where pendulums and escapement systems can be found in. The pendulum is limited to turn one extent in half a second, and the gear network converts the oscillation right into secs, minute, and hours.

Modern electronic motors work identically-- at the very least to the onlooker-- although a completely different method is utilized to obtain the exact same outcomes. The first thing one requires to comprehend is that quartz crystals normally vibrate at their resonating regularities when a voltage decrease is related to them. Next, one must realize that the entire point of clocks is to track elapsed time (resetting every 12 or 24 hr), which whether this is done mechanically or electronically is a non-issue.

Nonetheless, the electronic strategy has lots of advantages that exceed just removing the bulk of flywheels, weights, and gears. Electronic motors in essence digitize the entire process, transforming what made use of to be performed in hardware into software program. This gives them a lot better adaptability and adaptability than their mechanical equivalents, and actually they can carry out essentially whatever functionality can be thought up due to the fact that shows has no hardware restraints.

As an example, suppose we intend to extend the resetting time, or the duration at which whatever wraps around to where it began? Twelve hours and twenty-four hours are prominent alternatives, but there's absolutely nothing preventing one from going a full week, and even a month!

Naturally, there's no factor implementing such time expansions if you couldn't reveal them, implying particularly adjusted dials and potentially an additional hand. For the once a week period, the days are printed in the center of the dial and the (short) extra hand leaps to the next day every 24 hr. In a similar way, for once-a-month durations, dates of the month are published along the dial's circumference and a lengthy hand ticks to the following once a day.

A neat option "clock" movement that you can obtain monitors tide level. The only actual distinction is going from a solar cycle to the lunar cycle, which is 24 hr and 50 mins. The motion has to be initialized and calibrated for neighborhood problems, but once this is done the tide degree will certainly always be accurate.

The tide-level motion (which can be combined with common timekeeping to display time and trend on one face), is a kind of lead-in to movements that depart from periodicity. Right here, the thing revealed is a weather phenomenon, such as moisture or temperature, and the single hand revolves between two extremes of a scale. Sensors are made use of to discover present worths, and the electric motor converts the value into hand position.

The astute viewers will certainly understand that we are no longer in the world of quartz movements, as there is no reason to track elapsed time. But the digital quartz innovation has freed up the imagination to assume in regards to software instead of hardware. clock parts

A fascinating by-product of all this is that there is a market for clocks and attributes of the past, such as grandfather clocks with oscillating pendulums. The digital movements can suit such needs via simulation, even though pendulums are no more working components; this is particularly valuable for clockmakers that want to bring back an old, non-functioning heirloom. Obviously, quartz clock movements open your panoramas.

Let me introduce my current main WIP. It's not fandom related, it's for my model railroad, and it's not yet finished.

This is a rendering of a circuit board that I'm designing at the moment. It will be a DCC command station. My model railroad is run digitally, which means the tracks carry digital signals that tell each locomotive and switch individually how to run, which lights to turn and so on. The command station is the device that generates that. I have a number of different layouts, one of which has a good command station, one of which has a crappy old one, and the final one isn't even digital yet. So this will be the one that solves all issues for me, hopefully.

The design above isn't finished yet, and even the parts that are are not yet fully representative. The different capacitors are just there as options; some screen print overlaps; and some components (in particular all plugs and the relays that control the programming track) don't have 3D models so they don't show up.

Planned features:

Four layer board

10-25 V DC output, software controllable

Up to 5A output power, limited mainly by the main switching regulator.

Input 15-25V either AC or DC with polarity protection, selectable with some solder bridges (not yet in there). Optionally you can also bypass the main power regulator with another solder bridge (that I haven't added yet); useful in case you use e.g. a laptop power supply with a switchable voltage and don't need any regulation after that.

Railcom support

USB connection; not yet sure what for, but the main chip I'm using has USB support and I have some spare USB connectors here, so in it goes.

Speaking: The chip is an STM32L433RCT6P, chosen because I found it in stock at an electronics distributor. 64 kB RAM, 256 kB EEPROM, with support for an additional up to 256 MB externally (there's a spot for that on the board) and lots of fun extras that I don't technically need. It has an FPU! I don't need an FPU, but I will definitely do some floating point math computation on it just for fun.

Main external connection is WLAN using an ESP32 WROOM U module. I haven't decided on the housing, but I may go for extruded aluminum, so it's the U version that allows and requires an external antenna

It supports XBUS/XpressNet connections for old throttles from Lenz and Roco that I should probably throw away, but I paid good money for them, dang it.

It supports CAN for LCC / OpenLCB. I may not populate this part on all boards that I'm building, because I haven't actually decided whether I am interested. But the chip has CAN functionality built in, so why not.

There's an I2C connection to connect a cheap tiny OLED display for status messages.

Test points for all important signals (in particular the different internal voltage levels; yes, there is 3.3V, A3.3V and -3.3V and I need all of them).

Stuff still to add:

I will add pin headers (or space for pin headers anyway) for all the remaining pins on the STM32, and perhaps some on the ESP32, for future expansions.

Status LED and stop/go button on the front

Wire it all up, maybe move some stuff (mostly the STM32 around), which will cause all sorts of fun new routing issues.

Adjustments to make the jacks line up with the front panel once I've decided on a housing.

Features I'm not considering adding:

s88. I vaguely know what it is but I don't have any devices like that, and if that ever changed I could probably build (or perhaps buy) a converter that connects them via CAN.

Other buses like LocoNet.

Ethernet. I don't need it and it's actually more expensive than WLAN in this day and age.

In terms of software, I'm planning to use DCC-Ex on it. The whole project actually started out as a DCC-Ex shield, but once I realised that this wouldn't fit, I decided to make it standalone. Now, DCC-Ex is designed for Arduino, not STM32, and it doesn't support XpressNet, nor OpenLCB, nor Railcom, and their Wifi protocol is pretty weird and annoying which will be an issue (I'm planning to write my own control app for iPhone for it), so I'll probably change that or just replace it with the z21 one… so really, the software will not look a lot like DCC-Ex once I'm done with it.

Will this all work? I have honestly no idea. I mean, I'm fairly confident, I'd have given up on this long ago otherwise, but I have no guarantees either way until I've spent a lot of money on components and circuit boards and start soldering. Turns out doing it this way is not really cheaper than just buying a half-way decent one. That's what makes it exciting, though!

If it does work, obviously this will be released as open source. But it's still going to be a few days (more realistically weeks) before it's even ready to order the parts, and then a lot of soldering (current BOM stands at 194 actual components), and then a lot of software development before it's ready for that.

Thrift store find, and a project:

Got this Alesis QX25 MIDI controller in as-is condition for $12. The most obvious problems when I got it were that the fader cap and one rotary encoder knob were missing, and one of the black keys was broken. In addition, there were solfege stickers on the keys, implying the previous owner was pretty young; that impression was backed up when I opened it to find maybe half a container of assorted glitter inside.

The fader cap I haven't come up with yet, and I've put a temporary knob on the encoder — the one at the far right — and I was able to partially disassemble the keybed and glue the key back together. (I'm using Gorilla Glue's superglue formulation, which is supposed to be better than usual cyanoacrylates at bonding plastics; if this doesn't hold, I know where to order replacements.) From a quick once over, the current status is that some of the tact switches are broken somehow — the ones, at least, for octave up and transpose down don't work. I've only given those the most cursory inspection, so I don't know if it's the switches themselves or something in the wiring; I'll have to see if my big box of tact switches has anything I can swap in for them.

But the "project" part is the part that has me enthused. Unlike a lot of more recent MIDI controllers, this one has both a USB jack for connecting to a computer and a 5-pin DIN jack for traditional MIDI instruments. It's also got a lot of spare room inside the case. So I'm looking at taking an Arduino or a Teensy and some little digital-to-analog converters and adding the ability to output CV and gate signals for modular synthesizers. Basically the Arduino will listen to the MIDI signal and interpret that; the minimal feature set is a single note off channel 1, just the CV and gate corresponding to the most recently struck key, but may expand to multiple notes and/or handling the drum pads as their own gate/trigger outs, and probably an extra CV out that can follow the mod wheel or pitch bend.

I'm debating which DACs to use. I have some lying around — the spoils of a time when Linear, Analog Devices, and Maxim were separate companies, and they, Microchip, and Texas Instruments would give out free samples if you had a plausible-sounding company name — but a lot of them aren't particularly well-suited for this. I want to run everything off the existing 5V supply — either a wall wart or USB — and not need elaborate external analog circuits to do things. I'm looking at the MCP4811, a single-channel 10-bit device, which has the advantage of an internal voltage reference at 2.048V, and a ×2 output, for a full range of 0V-4.096V that's very reliable even when run off a unreliable 5V power supply, like the keyboard's USB power input.

(In an ideal world, I'd have a perfect 1v reference, and a precision adder, so that the full precision of the part, all the bits, could be applied to just the 0-1V range, and then I could add single volts as needed to specify the octave. If we're calling 0V C0, then with the 10-bit setup over the 4.096V spread, you have to use value 396 to get G1, and you're imperceptibly sharp; with ten bits over a single volt, you'd use value 597 and add an extra volt and you'd be... slightly closer but flat this time. So the ideal world can fuck itself, and I'll see how the thing I actually have works.)

How to adjust the speed of a geared stepper motor

1.A brief explanation of a geared stepper motor A geared stepper motor is an electromechanical device that converts electrical pulses into discontinuous mechanical motion. ‌It achieves precise position control by receiving digital control signals (electrical pulse signals) and converting them into corresponding angular displacements or linear displacements. The main feature of a geared stepper motor is that its output angular displacement or linear displacement is proportional to the number of input pulses, and its speed is proportional to the pulse frequency, which makes it important in systems that require high-precision motion control. As an important component of a stepper motor, the gearbox achieves precise control of speed and torque through its precise control function, thereby ensuring the irreplaceability of stepper motors in open-loop high-resolution positioning systems. ‌

2.Advantages of geared stepper motors 1.Reduce speed and increase output torque: Through different reduction ratios, geared stepper motors can reduce the speed of the input shaft while increasing the output torque, which is very useful for applications that require large torque output. ‌2.Compact structure and small footprint: The design of the geared stepper motor makes its structure very compact, thereby reducing the required installation space. ‌ ‌ 3.High transmission efficiency and precise speed ratio‌: The geared stepper motor has high transmission efficiency and can ensure the accuracy of the speed ratio, which is critical for applications that require precise control of speed and position. ‌4.Reduce the inertia of the load‌: By reducing speed, the geared stepper motor can reduce the inertia of the load, which is very beneficial for applications that require fast response and precise control. ‌5.Provide more accurate timing than the chain system, reduce friction loss and noise‌: Compared with the chain system, the geared stepper motor provides more accurate timing, while reducing friction loss and noise, improving the reliability and durability of the system.

3.Methods for adjusting the speed of the geared stepper motor 1.Change the main frequency of the controller‌: By adjusting the main frequency of the controller to change the pulse frequency output to the motor, the speed of the motor is controlled. The higher the main frequency, the higher the output pulse frequency, and the faster the motor speed. ‌2.Use PWM (pulse width modulation) control‌: Use the PWM signal to control the duty cycle of the pulse output, and then adjust the pulse frequency to achieve fine adjustment of the motor speed. ‌3.Table lookup speed regulation‌: According to the set speed value, by looking up the corresponding table of the pre-set speed value and pulse frequency, select the appropriate pulse frequency output to achieve a specific speed. ‌4.Adopting S-type acceleration curve‌: By adopting S-type acceleration curve, the motor can be smoothly accelerated and decelerated, providing better start and stop control. ‌5.Closed-loop control system‌: The real-time speed of the motor is fed back by the encoder, and the output of the pulse frequency is adjusted after comparison with the set value to achieve accurate speed tracking and enhance control accuracy.

4.Drive mode of gear stepper motor 1.Single voltage drive‌: In this mode, only one direction voltage is used to power the winding during the operation of the motor winding. The advantages of this mode are simple circuit structure, few components, low cost and high reliability. However, due to the increased power consumption, the efficiency of the entire power drive circuit is low, and it is only suitable for driving low-power stepper motors‌. ‌2.High and low voltage drive‌: In order to enable the winding to quickly reach the set current when power is on, and the winding current quickly decays to zero when power is off, while maintaining high efficiency, high and low voltage drive modes have emerged. This method uses high voltage power supply at the front edge of conduction to increase the front rise rate of the current, and uses low voltage to maintain the current of the winding after the front edge. High and low voltage drive can obtain better high-frequency characteristics, but may cause oscillation at low frequencies. ‌3.Full-step drive: including single-phase full-step drive and two-phase full-step drive. Full-step drive changes the direction and magnitude of the current to make the stepper motor rotate according to the set step angle. The advantage of this method is that it is simple and intuitive, and it is suitable for occasions where the torque requirement is not high. However, due to its relatively small torque, it may need to be used in combination with other drive methods. ‌4.Half-step drive: By changing the direction and magnitude of the current, the stepper motor rotates according to half a step angle. Compared with full-step drive, half-step drive has higher resolution and smoother movement, and is suitable for occasions with higher positioning requirements. ‌5.Micro-step drive: By controlling the magnitude and direction of the current in segments, the stepper motor rotates according to a smaller micro-step angle. Microstepping drives can achieve higher resolution and smoother motion, and are suitable for situations where high-precision positioning and control are required.
