lcd tester

I have not transitioned from the Z80 camp to the CNC/Fabber camp. Although there have not been any updates on the Z80 for a considerable time, updates will be forthcoming. The construction of the CNC machine is still some time away (a few months to years). Once a mostly working design is conceptualized, focus will shift from the CNC machine to other projects. There is hope to take pictures of the LCD Tester and resume work on it. Efforts will be made to provide more regular updates.

The Z80 microprocessor, a pivotal component in many retro computing and embedded system applications, continues to maintain interest despite a lack of recent updates. The ongoing development of a CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machine, while still in the conceptual stage, may eventually integrate the Z80 architecture for control and processing tasks. The CNC machine's design will require careful consideration of various electronic components, including stepper motors, drivers, power supplies, and microcontrollers, to ensure precise movement and operation.

The LCD Tester project, which aims to facilitate testing and troubleshooting of LCDs, is another area of focus. This project may involve designing a circuit that includes a microcontroller, various resistors, capacitors, and possibly an LCD driver IC. The circuit would need to provide power to the LCD, generate the necessary control signals, and display test patterns to verify functionality.

In terms of project management, establishing a timeline for the CNC machine and LCD Tester projects will be essential. This may involve creating schematic diagrams, selecting components, and prototyping to ensure that both projects can progress efficiently. Regular updates on the status of these projects will be crucial for maintaining engagement with the community and fostering collaboration. The documentation of each project phase, including design iterations and testing results, will contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the challenges and solutions encountered.I haven`t left the z80 camp and joined the CNC/Fabber camp. I know there haven`t been any z80 updates in uh a long time but I promise they will come. The building of the CNC machine is a long way off (few months to years) anyhow. I think as soon as I can get a mostly working design in my head, I`ll put the CNC Machine down a nd get to work on other things. Hopefully I can take some pictures of the LCD Tester and get back to work on it. I`ll try to keep the updates more regular. 🔗 External reference
