If you work with esp32-c3 or plan to work with it, this project might come in handy as a JTAG debug setup.

I really love the esp32-c3 for it’s built in JTAG. Just connect USB to the chip and it gives you a JTAG interface and a serial channel. No extra hardware needed. I am in Love! Definitely! Even the price is very good.

The setup makes it easy to connect to openocd and gdb and get every bug out of your code. Take a look.

Btw: If you work with other eps32’s the setup can be used for them also but need an external JTAG adapter.

Again it’s time to say thank you to the VSCP project sponsors. Your support has been of more value for the project then I can express. This month there was some extra money in the sponsor transfer (I don’t know the origin for this money), a very generous amount. I will use this money for components for the new projects coming up after the the summer vacation. All free and open as always.

Thanks again!

Lastly I wish everyone a happy midsummer.

Not easy to be in the electronics business these days.

Thanks to the VSCP project sponsors (and partly (20%) an understanding wife) I was able to buy a new oscilloscope today. I have been without for many years now being more or less blinded electronically. So now I can see again. A big thank you to the VSCP project sponsors.

My goal has been to pickup and start to make the modules I sold before as soon as I can (people are actually still asking for them!). But at the moment it looks like I am the only one having IC’s and to few to do any larger “production” effort. Hopefully the chip shortage situation will be over soon so that this can be resolved.

btw the oscilloscope I bough was the 100MHz Hantek DSO20C10. This scope is available also as Hantek DSO20D15 which is 150MHz and have a waveform generator on board. Luckily my scope turned into a 150 MHz with a waveform generator after a little software hack. Same hardware apparently. Saving some (of my sponsors) money. Hurrah!

It has been a splendid week here. Most of the code for the level II node is in place, Next week I will take up where I left of with the VSCP Works qt work.

Have a nice weekend all of you out there, well at least those of you that read this… Well, everyone should of course.

All of us at the VSCP group know Iain and are thankful for his support for VSCP. Here a video with him from Hackster.
