Big things come in small packages

beacon_dave
beacon_dave 1 day ago

UPS turned up today with a package from element 14. This was a prize from the What’s one tool you own but never use? competition.

I now have an Arduino Uno R4 Minima. Thank you element 14 !

I have already downloaded the Renesas data sheet and hardware users manual to see what's new. These things don't get any smaller - I may be gone for some time...

    Congrats. Usually the packages I get can be described the opposite way - "small thing come in big packages, which come in even bigger packages"

    When I say "at some point" it is a long way from the front burner....

    I get that too, but I've been getting a lot of "delicate things come in barely any packaging" lately. At any rate, congrats beacon_dave !

    Will this be another tool that's not used.  Only time will tell.  Wink Either way, congratulations.

    This one will likely start off as an educational tool.

    However I want to investigate an audio beat detection project at some point.

    I've not found enough background info on it to light the back burner with yet.
