What’s an ADSR envelope generator? If you are a big music hacker, you probably know. If you are like the rest of us, you might need to read [Mich’s] post to find out that it is an attack-decay-sustain-release (ADSR) envelope generator. Still confused? It is a circuit used in music synthesis. You can see a…
For this year’s Hackaday Prize, we’re giving everyone the opportunity to be a hardware startup. This is the Best Product portion of the Hackaday Prize, a contest that will award $30,000 and a residency in our Design Lab to the best hardware project that is also a product. Imagine all the memory chips in all…
We have so many options when we wish to add wireless control to our devices, as technology has delivered a stream of inexpensive devices and breakout boards for our experimentation. A few dollars will secure you all your wireless needs, it seems almost whatever your chosen frequency or protocol. There is a problem with this…

We are still testing our flex process. We just sent our second round off to fab this week.
The previous round was delivered to folks starting Hackaday Supercon weekend back in November 2017. Here some more information:
We were pleased to see Trammell Hudson’s creative Catalan design:
Henner Zeller also designed a very nice LED ring for his DerKnopf project:
For more information, please email: [email protected]
We’re looking for a variety of flex designs to test. The specs will be the same as our normal 2 layer service but on Kapton:
Please send us an email with “flex” in the subject: [email protected]
1Bitsy 1UP is a retro inspired handheld game console, the design is based on the 1Bitsy STM32F415RGT6 ARM Cortex-M4F 168MHz 192kb RAM and 1MB Flash micro controller. 2.8″ TFT with capacitive touch, SDCard Reader and a few other components.

The display used is a TFT LCD with I2C CapTouch and ILI9341 driver. (should be compatible with the display sold by Adafruit on their breakouts as well as the buydisplay.com 2.8″ tft with CapTouch sensor)
The most basic design consists of:
- 1Bitsy STM32F415RGT6 (168MHz, 192kb RAM, 1MB Flash)
- 240×320 2.8″ TFT with capacitive touch and PWM backlight control
- D-Pad, ABXY, Start, Select buttons
- DAC audio out to headphones. (speakers optional)
- SDCard connected over SDIO interface
The hardware design files and firmware source code are available on GitHub:

Possibly the worlds smallest Pi based gaming device!
Our 0.8mm thickness 2 layer service was used to make it as slim as possible:
The designs for a 3-D printed case are shared on the Hackaday.io project page:
MP3 player design from Dooba.io:
Based on the ioNode, Aecho and Nomad modules, the Shiva allows browsing & playing MP3 files stored on any FAT-formatted MicroSD card with audio quality up to 128Kbps.
The actual Shiva board itself is quite simple, featuring an MCP23008 from Microchip for reading the 7 buttons, a DM3D-SF MicroSD card socket from Hirose and a 128×64 OLED display from Adafruit.
To keep everything neatly together I needed an enclosure. Being lucky enough to own a half-decent 3D printer I decided to keep things minimal but functional. Who needs glue and screws when you can go for a press-fit case?
The code for the Shiva MP3 player is available in the Dooba Firmware SDK under /src/shiva. Schematic and board are available in the Dooba Hardware collection.

We’re thrilled to announce Supercon tickets are now available. The 2017 Hackaday Superconference is November 11th and 12th in Pasadena, California. This is the ultimate hardware conference. Hackers, designers, and engineers from all over the world converge — from the greenest beginners to those who have made history with their designs. This is the Hackaday community,…

The ATXMega32E5 is the next step up for those experienced with the AVR series of microcontrollers from Microchip (formerly Atmel). They use the same compilers and libraries as the rest of the AVR 8- and 16-bit families, but they can run at 32 MHz and have an amazingly powerful set of internal peripherals that can take your projects to the next level and beyond.
For prototyping, however, the disadvantage is that the XMega chips are not available as through-hole parts. That’s where this breakout board comes into play.
nsayer has shared the board on OSH Park:
[David Brown]’s entry for The Hackaday Prize is a design for a tool that normally exists only as an expensive piece of industrial equipment; out of the reach of normal experimenters, in other words. That tool is a 6-axis micro manipulator and is essentially a small robotic actuator that is capable of very small, very precise movements.…
