#59927 Netduino Plus 2 for $40

Posted by mikepo on 28 August 2014 - 08:00 PM in Netduino Plus 2 (and Netduino Plus 1)

RadioShack was clearing out their MakerShed Netduino kits recently (well, I think 2 months ago by now) for $19.99.

That's why they have been popping up on eBay.

It's a great kit, comes with a lot of peripherals that alone are worth $20 retail.




#59924 Maximum port frequency ...

Posted by mikepo on 28 August 2014 - 05:17 PM in Netduino Go

I think we can safely exclude 100MHz and 2GHz, but you probably already knew that :)

500kHz looks pretty unlikely too ...

 

Does this help (towards the end of the post, under: "Bit toggling"):

It's not talking about Netduino in particular but the .Net Micro Framwork in general. But some good insights ...

 

"So basically, with a 100 MHz processor, you can usually do around 20 ?s wide pulses using managed code (about 25 kHz)."

 

Another similar discussion on the TinyCLR forum:

https://www.ghielect...?id=4052&page=1

 

"72 MHz sounds very fast.
But I was surprised that outputting an alternating 0 and 1 via .NET code was so slow!
I got only 10 kHz."

 

 

So I am guessing it would be less than 10kHz, if your code runs on the Netduino Go and communicates the command to toggle a pin to the shield base over the go!bus protocol ...




#57896 Using a 32-channel Servo Controller via a Shield Base

Posted by mikepo on 02 May 2014 - 05:02 PM in Netduino Go

You should be able to use one of the serial ports on the Netduino Go directly.
No need for the shield base.
But you'd need a cable that goes into the Go Port or a breakout board if you can find one:

PS: yes it is frustrating that it seems the Netduino Go doesn't seem to get any real software updates anymore, despite repeated "announcements".
