*I count 20 holes, on the encoder wheels. This gives 20 periods per revolution. The wheel diameter is about 0.066 meters, so the radius is 0.033 meters. This gives about 0.21 meters per revolution. It seems a pretty fast speed is about 1 meter per second, which means that we have about 5 revolutions per second, or 100 cycles per second, or about 0.01 seconds per period at high speed.

Useful Links for the Assembly Language Programming Class

ARM7 Links

Raspberry Pi

Depending on the version, your pi may use ARM6 or ARM7. There is actually quite a lot of good assembly language information for programming the raspberry pi.

TI MSP430 Links

Toolchain

  • CCS will work with Linux and Windows, and now a beta is available for OS X.
    • To install CCSV6.1 on Ubuntu 15.04, you need to
$ unset JAVA_TOOL_OPTIONS

before running the installer. There is some more information for Linux installs here. I also found out that installing Grace from the App Center makes the App Center blank thereafter, unless you reinstall CCSV6.1.

  • Assembly Language Tools This manual also has some good data on the linker, including the section "Using Linker Symbols in C/C++ Applications".
  • Kernighan and Ritchie's Famous C Book This is probably the best short text for learning C.
  • MSP430 Optimizing C/C++ Compiler (See Section 6.5 and following for how to mix C/C++ and Assembly. It is really best to read the entire chapter though, as it is all pertinent to mixing C and Assembly. It will also help you if you want to program in C, as it tells how the C compiler uses the memory, the stack, the registers, etc., and once you understand the processor as you learn to do when you learn its assembly language, it is very interesting to see how that all works in C.)
    • Here is how to use printf() statements with Code Composer Studio.
  • TI Cloud Tools This includes CCS Cloud which allows you to compile and flash, but not debug. This is a partial solution to the problem that Code Composer Studio is not available natively on OS X.
  • OS X Native Toolchain Installer (You may prefer the Code Composer Studio Beta linked above.)
GCC Compiler

Evaluation Board Data

CC3100 SimpleLink Wi-Fi Family

2014 Robot Information

  • HSR-1425CR Continuous Rotation Servo Datasheet
  • Schematics These are rather crude schematics of the robot circuit board. There are two cuts and jumps that are not reflected, at least on the last one. The effect is to change the photo transistors from a common emitter to a common collector configuration. You can see the change scratched in just below the word Fairchild on the hand drawn schematic. Basically the resistor and photo transistor are reversed in order. I believe both photo transistors are swapped to common collector configuration.

2015 Robot Information

  • Building Tips
  • L9110 H Bridge Data Sheet
    • HG7881 Dual H Bridge Module This suggests putting the PWM signal on one input and the direction control on the other. If you do that, you need to invert the PWM input when you change directions as well. See the data sheet above.
  • Bluetooth UART HC-05 and HC-06
  • Blueberry Android Bluetooth Remote Control App
  • HY301-07A Photo Interrupter Datasheet From the datasheet, we will choose a forward current on the LED to be 5 mA because we don't want to waste batteries, and that is the lowest the data sheet shows it working. That leads us to a forward voltage across the diode of 1.3 volts. If we run things on 3.3 volts that gives us a voltage drop of 3.3-1.3=2.0 volts. Ohms law says a resistor of R=V/I=2volts/5mA = 400 ohms. We will pick 390 ohms since it is an available 5% value. For the phototransistor, we see that the current for the forward diode current we picked should be about 0.2 mA. If we want the output to drop to 0.5 volts with the LED on, that leaves 3.3 volts - 0.5 volts = 2.8 volts across the collector resistor, so using Ohm's Law again, we need a collector resistor of 2.8 volts/0.2mA = 14 Kohms, so we will pick 15 Kohms because it is a standard value.
  • I count 20 holes, on the encoder wheels. This gives 20 periods per revolution. The wheel diameter is about 0.066 meters, so the radius is 0.033 meters. This gives about 0.21 meters per revolution. It seems a pretty fast speed is about 1 meter per second, which means that we have about 5 revolutions per second, or 100 cycles per second, or about 0.01 seconds per period at high speed.

Logic Analyzer Information

These logic analyzers are clones of the original Saleae analyzer. They have software compatible with this analyzer, but they don't like you to use it.
