I love the smell of fresh solder mixed with coffee 😌

Oh I have a nice soldering project to do today myself. I had to bust out my signal generator for it.

What are you planning to build?

I'm building basically a schmitt trigger based on this circuit I found. It will take manchester encoded audio data from cassette and then clean the signal. Then, it's easier to decode.

I busted out all the toys for this one. The signal generator was helpful, I'm putting in a sine wave here and getting a nice digital signal.

Desk needs cleaning but eh.

That's a dream lab 🤩

Are you trying to decode ecash on tape?

This guy claim he got 3k baud with manchester encoding. So, if I can get that, there's lots of possibilities!

Unfortunately I'm out of 5v arduinos and don't want to deal with level shifting. I also forgot that the guitar pedal case is conductive so I need those rubber feet to keep the board off the bottom.

But it all fit nicely in the case :) With testing, about a 3 LP job.

Kapton tape the back of the PCB 😂

To be honset, you lost me halfway with your plan.

Still, sick ideas to catch data from tapes, keep us posted 🤘

Oh yeah that will work. I have plans withing plans within plans! But I'll keep posting progress 😀
