Re: MT32-Pi and the Pi Zero 2 W

Is the MT32-Pi compatible with the Orange Pi Zero 2 W? Or might it become in the future?

Re: DE10 Nano from Self-Balancing Robot Kit

@OnkelB: any advancement on this? The project is on ice for the moment as im waiting for a few more components that i need to do some soldering on to arrive. I think im just going to hire a professionell to do all the things i need to solder at the same time if its not to expensive. I also need to replace a female GPIO on a Raspberry pi with a mal...

Re: DE10 Nano from Self-Balancing Robot Kit

And i guess you can actually use it in its current state for a Mister build. It just would be clunky as all hell with the SDRAM module pointing straight down. It wouldn't fit in any existing cases. I don’t think this would work, because there are two rows of pins. If you install the SDRAM upside down socket one will either end up at pin 2 or pin 3...

Re: DE10 Nano from Self-Balancing Robot Kit

Ok i see. I suppose there is a good reason why the RAM is always located directly next to the CPU on computers.

Re: DE10 Nano from Self-Balancing Robot Kit

Desoldering GPIO headers can be a pain, especially without decent tools. Unless you have a decent desoldering gun and experience I wouldn't risk it on such an expensive piece of kit, there's a very real risk of lifting a pad or damaging a trace. Find someone with a desoldering gun and experience that can help, it's not a difficult job with the rig...

Re: DE10 Nano from Self-Balancing Robot Kit

Hi OnkelB. Here is another one (myself) that thought the same. The difference is that even if I ordered one month ago, I will open and start to experiment from 25th of December. Sorry but traditions are important to me, so i cannot help or even share experiences until then. But, boys, I was really surprised by your post, at least as much as you wa...

DE10 Nano from Self-Balancing Robot Kit

Hello! I might have made a mistake. As we all know a De10 Nano can be hard to get a hold of right now. And i thought i had found a new way to get one that nobody was really talking about when i saw this Self-Balancing Robot kit that includes a de10 nano. https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/t/terasic-tech/de10-nano-self-balancing-robot-deve...
