Collaborate Disseminate
Last time, we’ve used a logic analyzer to investigate the ID_SD and ID_SC pins on a Raspberry Pi, which turned out to be regular I2C, and then we hacked hotplug …read more Continue reading Logic Analyzers: Capabilities And Limitations
Today, I’d like to highlight a tool that brings your hacking skills to a whole new level, and does that without breaking the bank – in fact, given just how …read more Continue reading Logic Analyzers: Tapping Into Raspberry Pi Secrets
I’ve talked about a low-effort way to document your projects by taking plenty of pictures, and about ways that your PCBs could be documenting themselves. Today, let’s talk about a …read more Continue reading Share Your Projects: Leave Breadcrumbs
What if I told you that you might never need to draw a new footprint again? Such is my friend’s impression of the tool that she’s shown me and I’m …read more Continue reading Easyeda2KiCad: Never Draw a Footprint Again
In the six months that have passed after the last USB-C article has been released, I have thought up a bunch of ways that these articles could have been improved. …read more Continue reading All About USB-C: Example Circuits
The DisplayPort altmode is semi-proprietary, but it can absolutely be picked apart if we try. Last time, we found a cool appnote describing the DisplayPort altmode in detail, switched the …read more Continue reading DisplayPort: Taming The Altmode
We’ve started designing a PCIe card last week, an adapter from M.2 E-key to E-key, that adds an extra link to the E-key slot it carries – useful for fully …read more Continue reading PCIe For Hackers: Our M.2 Card Is Done
Really, the most modern implementation of DisplayPort is the USB-C DisplayPort altmode, synonymous with “video over USB-C”, and we’d miss out if I were to skip it. Incidentally, our last …read more Continue reading DisplayPort: Tapping The Altmode
I’ve designed a few M.2 adapters for my own and my friends’ use, and having found those designs online, people have asked me for custom-made adapters. One of these requests …read more Continue reading PCIe For Hackers: An M.2 Card Journey
Last time, we looked at all the things that make DisplayPort unique for its users. What about the things that make it unique for hackers? Let’s get into all the …read more Continue reading DisplayPort: Under The Hood
