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.

DIY: Flipper Zero Quick Prototype Module

Tinkering with Flipper Zero and adding various modules have been fun, but I found doing it with breadboard and jumper wires have been rather messy and it's difficult to bring the add-on around with wires and components hanging off the Flipper Zero. So, I decided to spend a couple of hours to put together a quick prototype module with breadboard attached that plugs into Flipper Zero. I also added an AMS1117 5v to 3.3v step down power supply buck to the board, so that 3.3v also comes from the 5v pin. This makes the module hot pluggable as long as you don't use the Flipper Zero's 3.3v pin. It's a lot more convenient this way. Here's the final result! What do you think?

Now I can try out quick builds of various projects and bring it around to test it with no issue, before committing to a design and making it permanent. Here are more examples using this quick prototype module.

It just cost me a few bucks for the parts and I think it's time well spent. If you wish to make one yourself, here's a quick guide below.

Build Steps

Here are the stuff you will need for this project: An 8cm x 6cm double sided prototype board, a 400 hole breadboard, some 25mm male and female header pins, some jumper wires and an AMS1117 5v to 3.3v step down power supply buck. These can be found in Aliexpress, Amazon, Lazada, etc.

First, cut away the connectors on the side of the breadboard just to give it a cleaner look.

Next is to cut the female header pins to the right length, or you can just get the right sizes of the shelf. You need one with 8 pins and another one with 10 pins.

Next, we need to cut the male header pins to length. Again, we need one with 8 pins and one with 10 pins. After that, stick the header pins all the way into a breadboard, then use a ruler/screwdriver to slowly push the plastic thingy holding the pins down until it touches the breadboard.

Use a masking tape to mark the pin at 5mm above the plastic thingy. This is the line where you will bend the pins.

Now use a plier to bend the pins 90 degrees, then cut the pins shorter like below. You can cut the pins after soldering it on to the board, but I find it easier to cut it before.

Next, we work on the power supply step down module. You need to remove the plastic thingy from the pins. Just use a cutter to trim it off, then bend the pins straight.

Now you can solder the male header pins to the prototype board like below. You can also see how the female header pins should be placed on the board.

Bend the legs of the female header pins so that they lean towards the solder points of the male header pins, then solder each corresponding pin to bridge them together.

Now go ahead and also solder the power supply module and wire them accordingly. Note that I also cut a 2 pin female header and I wired both to the 3.3V VOUT from the power supply module.

At this point, it's probably good to take out the multimeter (or use the continuity tester app on Flipper) to test all the connections to make sure all the connections are good and that there are no shorts. After that, peel off the tape backing from the breadboard and stick it on the module.

That's it! You're done, and now you have a nifty quick prototyping module for your Flipper Zero that will make your experimenting a lot more enjoyable.

Oh, and just one more thing ... I designed and printed some stickers to label the pins on the module. This makes it a lot less likely that you will stick the connections in the wrong holes. You can download the PDF for the stickers here.

There, now we are really done. Let me know what you think, or how I can improve this. Have fun! If you enjoy stuff like this, check out our Makers & Hackers Exchange  Facebook group.

Senseair K30 CO2 meter Hi, I’ve installed a Senseair K30 CO2 meter to an ESP32 and i’d like to share this with you. Big thanks to martgras and znerk13 for showing the way (Add Senseair K30 CO2 sensor · Issue #1587 · esphome/feature-requests · GitHub). Starting off with the most important question first: why choose the expensive Senseair K30 sensor, and not something else? The choice is based on this scientific publication, which shows the K30 to be a very good sensor. Tomomi Yasuda et al, Comparison of the Characteristics of Small Commercial NDIR CO2 Sensor Models and Development of a Portable CO2 Measurement Device, Sensors 2012, 12, 3641-3655 The result is backup-up by this peer-reviewed paper: Cory R. Martin et al, Evaluation and environmental correction of ambient CO2 measurements from a low-cost NDIR sensor, Atmos. Meas. Tech., 10, 2383–2395, 2017. The result is also backup-up by this non-peer-reviewed paper, which also shows the K30 to be a good sensor: Mengna Li et al, Design of a Calibration System for Miniature Carbon Dioxide Sensors, FLOMEKO 2019, Lisbon, Portugal Okay, based on these results, i choose the Senseair K30. The K30 uses automatic baseline calibration (ABC) to auto-calibrate every 7.5 days. It assumes that lowest measurement in this period is the baseline value of 400 ppm. This mechanism works fine unless somebody is at home all the time (the baseline of 400 would never be reached in those 7.5 days). If the baseline is never reached, it is also possible to disable the ABC-mechanism, but i have not investigated this. Hardware: Power Supply: Mean Well RS-15-5 ESP32: ESP32 WROOM Devkit CO2 sensor: Sensair K30 Bi-directional Logic Level Shifter 3.3v 5v The sensor is very flexible, it can be connected analog and digital via I2C and UART (modbus). I choose UART based on the previous work of martgras and znerk13. Dupont pin headers are soldered onto the Senseair K30 UART terminal. In he picture below, from left to right: ground, 5v, RX, TX From here, the RX and TX go to the Logic Level Shifter → ESP32 TX (GPIO1, orange cable) and RX (GPIO3, yellow cable). As always, RX from the sensor goes to TX of the ESP and TX from the sensor goes to RX of the ESP. Screw the ESP into a project box and fixate the logic level shifter inside. Use a cable gland to fixate cabling in the project box. Now, screw the Senseair K30 outside of the project box, on top of the lid. Make sure to only use two screws, not more. Reason: Senseair advices this to prevent strain on the pcb. Also make sure that both screws are isolated from each other and isolated from main ground (for example by using plastic screws). Connect the wires and screw the top on the project box. CO2 sensors are sensitive to temperature, therefore the ESP32 is inside the box and the sensor is outside of the box attached via spacers. This is also the reason why the power supply is in another location. Building the power supply: this is pretty standard stuff. Crimp ring (or fork-style) connectors to the cables and screw the cables to the power supply. The power supply is placed into a ventilated project box (you can drill holes for this). Make sure to use cable glands to secure the 230v cables, otherwise you are creating a very dangerous situation. Use thick cabling to go from the power supply to the esp32/K30 combination to prevent voltage drop. I’ve used 0.75mm squared cables. You can calculate the required wire thickness using this website: Voltage Drop Calculator Inside the esp32 project box, i’ve placed Wago 221 to divide the cables further into shorter smaller cables to which i crimped dupont connectors (for the ESP32 and the K30) and ferrules (for the Wago 221). End-result of the device. Again, please be aware to place the power supply away from the K30 sensor to prevent warm-up and drifting CO2 measurements. I’ve placed the device inside the ventilation shaft that is extracting air from my living room to the outside. ESPHome is installed onto the ESP32.

Expander Module for the SSSR VC Divider.

I built the VC Divider last year, and I have since found a lot of use for it in generative synth patches, to divide clock and trigger signals down. It has an onboard 10-pin header that can be used to configure some options by using jumpers. But it was also well-documented so that I could create an expander module to make all those options readily available. After designing the expander circuit, I built it onto a 3hp panel. (In case you’re wondering, it may have been possible to squeeze it onto a 2hp, but the top toggle switch might not have had enough space then for the adjacent ribbon cable header that protrudes somewhat behind the expander panel.) The circuit is passive, so no power connector is needed.

I highly recommend using a rainbow ribbon cable for this project - the color coding makes it so much easier to keep track of the wires.

Don’t forget the ground connection to the local ground (I did at first!). The expansion jumper has ground on pin 2 (here, the red wire of the rainbow ribbon cable). So I ran a small jumper wire from the toggle’s top lug to the “sleeve” lug of the closer jack. It’ll still work without that wire in place, but you want to ensure that the input protection diodes (D3 and D4) have a path to ground no matter what.

Oh, and labeling was done with a Brother P-touch labelmaker, using 6mm black-on-clear tape. I kept the labels long so I could wrap them around the sides, just makes it look a little neater.

EKWB-Supremacy Classic RGB - Nickel + Plexi Waterblock Review

  EKWB's Supremacy CPU blocks have been a favorite of may water cooling enthusiasts and overclockers. With the launch of the Quantum line of products, EKWB also launched their Classic Line. The Classic line retains a familiar look of EK blocks of the past with minor aesthetic updates. The updates include an RGB LED strip under an aluminum cover on the water block. The Supremacy Classic still uses the jet-plate style cooling engine of previous blocks and has been updated for easier maintenance.   Packaging With cost-conscious consumers in mind, EKWB chose a plain cardboard box for the Supremacy Classic. There's no flash or flair here, just straight down to business. A small line art drawing of the block is on top while the socket compatibility is now listed on the side of the box.

Inside, you'll find the installation kit in the first compartment, the water block and thermal paste below that, and underneath the last bit of foam is the rubber gasket and EK's back plate. This review will cover the Intel block and the installation kit reflects as much. Included in the kit are standoffs for both desktop and HEDT (x99/X299), plastic washers to electrically isolate the stand-offs from the motherboard, tension spring, caps, two replacement jet plates, and a hex key used to tear down the block for cleaning and maintenance.

  Technical specifications: - RGB cable length: 30cm - RGB connector classic 4-pin (12+ R G B) CPU socket compatibility: - Intel LGA-1150/1151/1155/1156 - Intel LGA-2011(-3) - Intel LGA-2066

Enclosed:  - EK-Supremacy Classic RGB CPU block A Closer Look At The EK-Supremacy Classic RGB The Supremacy Classic has the looks of the older EK water blocks. However, there are subtle differences. There are no designs in the plexi that adorned the past blocks but there is an aluminum cover over the lower edge of the block. This cover hides the RGB LED strip. EK has made it so you can remove the aluminum cover and replace the RGB strip with one of your own choosing if you so desire.

  The water block uses standard G1/4 ports for fittings. Each port is marked in and out. The inlet for the block is designed so the coolant hits the jet plate and is forced across the fins on the way to the exit.

  What is a water block without RGB? The Supremacy is compatible with all the motherboards using a 4-pin (12+GRB) connection. The pigtail for the water block is about a foot long and should give you plenty of room to run to the RGB headers on the motherboard and if not there are 3rd party extensions that can be used.

Flipping the water block over, you'll be presented with a large yellow caution sticker advising you to remove it before installing the water block. Under the sticker is the cold plate for the water block. The cold plate is nickel plated copper. The finish on the block is like a mirror. No machining marks were visible and the reflection of the screwdriver below is dang near perfect. EK made the Supremacy Classic easy to tear down and clean. Simply remove the four hex screws on the bottom of the water block and pull apart. EK also included a hex key to do so. The water block consists of essentially four parts; the acrylic top, cold plate, jet plate, and mounting bracket. One of the problems I've had with other blocks is getting the o-ring back in place and having it stay while re-assembling. The o-ring for the Supremacy Classic can either sit on the cold plate or can sit in the groove in the acrylic top. During re-assembly, there was no movement of the o-ring.

The jet plate works in conjunction with the fins on the cold plate to force the water across them in order to transfer heat. The fins are machined into the block in order to increase surface area.

One of the differences with the Supremacy Classic and older EKWB blocks is the plastic mount for the jet plate is no longer removable which makes assembly a bit easier. The Jet plate can only go back on one way.

All that's left is to put the cold plate back on. Before screwing the parts together, it's a good idea to check and make sure the o-ring isn't pinched.

    Installation Unlike the previous budget water block, the Supremacy MX, you will not have to remove the stock Intel back plate in order to Install the Supremacy Classic on the Intel 11xx platform. You will, however, need to install the rubber gasket between the motherboard and the EKWB back plate. This will electrically isolate the back plate from any pins protruding from the motherboard. Make sure to line up the 3 holes in the back plate with the screws from the Intel socket.

Next up, you'll flip the motherboard over and install a washer on each of the longer standoffs and screw them into the back plate. The plastic washers act to protect the motherboard's traces. This will need to be done four times. If you're installing the Supremacy Classic on the HEDT platform, you will not need to use the included EKWB back plate. The shorter standoffs will screw into the stock Intel CPU brackets.

Once the standoffs are installed, you'll need to add a dab of thermal paste to the top of the CPU and set the block on top. I tend to use a small drop in the center of the CPU and then allow the water block to spread the paste as it is tightened. Then you'll take the four springs and place them on the standoffs with the ears of the water block below the springs. Finally, you'll take the caps and screw them down on the standoffs. Tighten them until they stop. Be sure to tighten in a criss-cross pattern to ensure even thermal paste spread.

For this review, I ran two sets of tests. The Stock test was run with the CPU set to the stock settings in the BIOS. The radiator fans and pump were set to the normal setting in the Arous BIOS. This allows the fans and pump to spin up and down based on temperature. The stock temperature curves in the BIOS were used. I chose to do this for the stock test to mimic a low noise set up.  I wanted to fans and pump to be quiet with at the same time get good cooling performance. The Overclock test was done with custom settings. I set the voltage for the CPU at 1.249v for Vcore and set the multiplier on all cores at 48. The pump and radiator fans were set to full speed in the BIOS settings. The EKWB radiator had just been cleaned using Mayhem's Blitz kit. The loop was filled with fresh distilled water (no additives) and was run without load until most of the air worked its way back to the reservoir. To monitor loop temperature, I used two XSPC inline temperature sensors. During the test, I waited for the coolant temperatures to stabilize (about 30 minutes). From there the statistics were cleared and another 15 minutes were put on the clock before the last minute average. Coolant temperatures were taken at the same time as the CPU temperatures. Temperatures are averaged (last minute) from individual core temperature results monitored by AIDA64 after 15 minutes using the default CPU, and Cache simultaneous load. AIDA64 is able to use the latest instructions including AVX and AVX2, etc unlike other older CPU load tests so it is also a lot more “future proof” as more software start to utilize it. PU-only load average is used to simulate worst case scenario load levels similar to Intel Burn Test or OCCT.  Please keep in mind that this test is brutal and not even close to real-world load (especially not that constant for that amount of time). Results marked “100″ and in red means, the thermal limit was reached and the CPU throttled, even for just but a second. This includes results where even just the first core reached the limit and even if it briefly happened. It is marked as 100 in red in the review if it happens three times. Three runs are conducted per cooler and a fourth run is done after a remounting to verify. Last minute average is taken instead of peak because it represents the averaged behavior of the thermal performance instead of worst-case scenario or a snapshot. Temperature delta results are used to account for variance in the cooling system. Room temperature is set at 19°C.   With the Intel i7-8700k using the motherboard defaults and the fans and pump set to "normal" in the Aorus BIOS settings, there a few degrees of difference between the Supremacy Classic and EKWB's previous generation "budget" waterblock; the Supremacy MX.  However, when we pour a bit more heat into the system by using the FPU test, the gap between the block widens a bit. The delta temperatures confirm that there is a slight difference when running the Aida64 stability test stressing CPU, Cache, and FPU. But as more heat is applied, the Supremacy Classic is the clear victor.

For the Overclocking tests, I set the fan and pump speeds to the "full speed" setting in the BIOS and set the CPU multiplier at 48 on all cores. After a bit of tweaking, I got the CPU to run stable at 4893 MHz with a Vcore of 1.249. Any less voltage and the system would crash the test or blue screen. As the frequency went up so did the temperatures as expected. We see a similar pattern with the new EKWB block besting the old, again, as expected. The Supremacy Classic extends its lead even more which leads me to believe, that I can still get this CPU even further and maybe crack 5 GHz with my retail sample.

  Conclusion EKWB recently released their Quantum line of products which included the Vector CPU water blocks. These are aimed more towards the enthusiast water cooling level. The EKWB Classic line is aimed at being budget-friendly and aims to bring back some of the "classic" EK look while still offering good performance. I think on the aesthetic side of the block EKWB has done a great job. The Supremacy classic forgoes any flash except for a single RGB strip and instead takes the stance of "walk softly and carry a big stick".

On the performance side of things, I am so far, impressed with the Supremacy Classic. A few of my other water blocks are in use on other projects at the moment and the Velocity waterblock review is coming up shortly. Time will tell how well the block does against other water blocks on the market. In my testing, the waterblock actually kept temperatures lower than I was expecting especially during the FPU torture test. Honestly, I expected the performance to be closer to the Supremacy MX.  Not once did I have an issue where the CPU throttled in either the stock or overclocking tests. Overall, I think the Supremacy Classic RGB is a pretty decent value at $70.00. It brings features such as a machined acrylic top and RGB lighting that consumers have been asking for at a lower price point than the top tier offerings from EK. Read the full article

One of the difficulties of Eurorack is getting power to your modules. Even once you've got a power supply for your case and either a backplane or a flying cable to distribute the power, you still need cables to go between that and each powered module.

When Doepfer designed their A-100 synthesizer, whose spec became the Eurorack standard, they decided that these cables would be dual-row ribbon cables, a type that goes back decades, in either 10- or 16-conductor layouts, in 0.1" pitch, with 0.05" pitch ribbon cable and IDC (Insulation Displacement Connector) ends. A big advantage is that these are fairly easy to build yourself from parts — you simply crimp the IDC bodies onto the cable — but there's still some nuance. It's tricky to crimp these without special tools, though not impossible; I've successfully used both a bench-mounted vice and long-nosed vice grips to apply the parallel crimping force. A lot of modules also use bare headers instead of keyed connectors, which means you have to be very careful about getting the cables plugged in the right way, since reversing power can fry components.

But it's also time-consuming to test these cables, to make sure you lined things up correctly and didn't short adjacent wires together. And since impatience is a virtue, I recently sketched out a circuit recently to automate the testing a bit — and then today I built it.

The circuit is conceptually simple — there's just two chips — but there's a lot of wiring. (Occasionally, I guess, I have to remind myself why I spend the effort, time, and money to have PCBs manufactured.) While the power runs, the 555 timer chip acts as an oscillator, sending out about 4 pulses per second to the clock input of the 4017 counter. On each clock cycle, the counter increments, and its next output activates. Each of these outputs goes to a pair of pins on the output connector, until the counter hits the ninth place and resets it back to the first.

The output connector goes through the cable that's being tested to one of the input connectors — either the 10- or the 16-pin one — which has each of its pins wired to a different LED. They're color-coded, so the first two pins — the ones for -12v on the real power bus — are red, while the ones for the next three pairs (ground connections on the bus) are blue. Basically, if the cable has shorts, it'll light up more than the pair of LEDs it's supposed to, and if it's misaligned, it'll light them in the wrong order, or not in pairs.

It's a very simplistic test — and building it by hovering over a work surface waving a hot iron around on a 90°F afternoon was maybe not the brightest plan — but it's a cute light show and a nice peace of mind.

(I'll also admit that when I first fired it up all the lights came on, but looked flickery; I'd made a dumb calculation error, and had the timer running about 15 times as fast as I'd intended to. Hardware, like software, often does what you tell it to do and not what you mean.)
