Members of this group meet each month to discuss programming, with particular emphasis on microprocessor programming, and microprocessor project design.
Some of the projects that members develop are displayed at these meetings.
At the April meeting Martin showed a circuit board he built to run as a RFID card reader. He also discussed a problem with a circuit for a power supply to a servo.
Geoff showed a power supply he bought on eBay. With independently adjustable voltage and current over a range of 0-30v, it was good value at $65.
Alex explained how he obtained an Amateur Radio Certificate. He bought the amateur radio Standard License course from the Radio and Electronics School, http://res.net.au/. The course has a wide range of useful information and tests, and offers a CD giving a good introduction to radio and electronics. As well, he joined the Waverley Amateur Radio Society to learn more about the subject.
A forthcoming meeting of the Ozberrypi meetup group was announced.
The members will have some new microprocessor applications and programming examples at the Programming Special Interest Group meeting being held on the 1st floor of the Sydney Mechanics’ School of Arts on 12 May. The meeting starts at 6PM.
Visitors are always welcome.
