It`s a quick hack on veroboard rather than a neat PCB, but here`s the schematic. Three outputs (TMS, TCK, TDI) run to the 74HC04 for buffering. The /RESET output drives a pull-down NPN transistor directly. Note that the 74HC04 is driven from an external Vcc taken from the target circuit; this allows the output voltage to be controlled by the targe

t. Supplying 5V, for example, will let TMS, TCK, etc. have a full 0-5V swing; however inputs to the wrtag will result in the 74HC04 outputs driving the GPIOs at greater than 3. 3V. To protect against this, two zener diodes clamp the Misc and TDO inputs to 3. 3V. Also, they have a 50ohm resistor in series in case the input GPIOs are configured as outputs before cblsrv can reconfigure them as inputs. Grotty, but it works; it`s not hugely useful and I end up driving the buffer Vcc from the box`s 3. 3V out anyway ” everything I need to JTAG is currently 3. 3V and any lower will require buffering a little more exotic than a 74HC04. Consider using one of TI`s dual-supply level conversion buffers instead. There are two ethernet ports on this version of the AR7. My kernel initialised them in the wrong order, making eth0 the non-functional PHY-less one, which upset OpenWRT a little. There`s a hacky patch below to just disable probing one, so eth0 works. The code to bit-bang the parallel port has been split into a separate class, which drives pins via a new GpioCtrl class. An implementation of this (in GpioCtrl_ar7. cpp) drives the AR7 GPIOs on the pins listed above. Note that GpioCtrl_ar7. cpp is specific to my wiring ” but the pins are #defined so are easy to change. Note also that their sense is inverted because I`m using an inverter to buffer them! The AR7 GPIOs require a read-modify-write to change a pin state, as there`re no...
This project fits more for custom made battery casing that can have more space to hide things inside. This switch with few alterations can be used for any other project as well but is designed based on e-bike needs! This project use a clever functionality of....
The circuit described here uses ultrasonic oscillations and operates based on the propagation velocity of these oscillations in the air. Thus, we can easily determine the distance of two points if the time within which the wave travels this distance is....
Sometimes the precious metals are hidden too deep and are not detected except with complicated devices. In many cases, however, small pieces of precious metal buried near the surface can be detected by relatively simple means. Everyone is very attractive to....
Many times for various reasons we forget or can not water the plants that we have in our homes. And many humidity sensors units just notify us with a beeping sound or with a flashing light, that the pot needs watering. But what if we are away from home? This....
The principle behind a metal detector is really very simple. Proof of this is the circuit that follows, in which it proves that the construction of a metal detector can be done in the minute, with few components that we find very easily everywhere. With the....
The sub-harmonic bass generator is a sound producing unit for guitars. The sound it produces looks very much like that of the bass guitar. The octave generator is sometimes quite unusual since it does not produce any of the usual ways of coloring the sound,....
In the past the sounding (sea bottom measurement) was done with the "bullet", that is, with a heavy lead object that the seamen plucked into the sea hung from a calibrated rope. As soon as the "bullet" reached the bottom, the depth appeared directly from the....
This Amplifier was designed to have the following specifications: Distortion less than 0.1% at full power of 100W even at 20KHz. Power has to be attributed to an extended bandwidth. The output transistors must be protected against short circuits. The power....
A series of LEDs serve to alert the gardener when plants need water. Using two conventional digital integrated LEDs and a series of LEDs, we make a very useful device for gardening. The device detects the amount of water in the pot and alerts the grower.....
