Semtech's Reference Implementation of SX1262 Driver is a little odd ... It doesn't process interrupts automatically! Fortunately on FreeRTOS we can easily forward the interrupt to the Application Task for processing

I just launched a new bot replicating the feed of CNX-Software on Twitter.

If like me you are interested in electronics and microcontrollers this is a very good one to follow.

RAKwireless receives Packets ... From connected to LoRa Module! 🎉 Now we do the other way ... WisBlock sending LoRa Packets to BL602

Huge relief because HopeRF RFM90 Datasheet doesn't say that 923 MHz is supported for Asia Region ... But we proved that the LoRa Module works at 923 MHz!

Chirp transmitted by LoRa SX1262 Driver ... Captured by Airspy SDR ... In super slo mo

Sorry I goofed ... Mixed up microseconds and milliseconds in SX1262 Driver ... Now AirSpy SDR shows the complete LoRa Chirp! 🎉

We have configured the Transmit Timeout as 3 seconds ... But it's timing out way too quickly ... Possibly quitting the packet too soon ... Lemme check the Timer Code 🤔

@AmpBenzScientist Actually the BL602 SDK Situation mystifies me...

(1) BL602 SDK seems to be created for AliOS. But it doesn't match the AliOS API completely. (Like the SPI functions)

(2) The SDK docs are not available in Chinese. I think most folks (including me) just copy the sample apps and tweak them.

But I'm really happy that the BL602 SDK actually works, once we take the time to figure it out.

@jz @lupyuen @PINE64 I really wanted to make a half mini pcie wireless/bt card based on the BL602. It has mostly happened already.

@AmpBenzScientist @lupyuen I was following RiscV since its inception, as part of a dream of exactly-what-we-wanted in terms of potential for freedom, modularity, but also lo-fi/frugal computing etc.

For a while i dreamt, and waited, and got convinced one future for freedom will have to be paved in RiscV chips!

I would have never expected that my first RiscV chip ever would be a... 25$ soldering iron!!! <3 amazing #pinecil

Prob a testperiment from @PINE64 towards riscV SBC (recntly anounced)

@jz @AmpBenzScientist @PINE64 Erm GD32VF103 unfortunately has it's own headaches. And I think it's short on supply now.

Here's what I think about GD32VF103: lupyuen.github.io/articles/hey

@AmpBenzScientist Another thing that bugs me about BL602 vs ESP32-C3...

(1) ESP32-C3 has a well-documented SDK. Unfortunately it seems to be force-fitted into a legacy API that's not so well designed.

(2) BL602 SDK looks more modern. But the docs are missing (and I'm filling in the gaps)
