The 10+2 refers to 10 minutes of you talking and 2 minutes for questions. Here are some…

I am exploring this cool simulator online, https://edaplayground.com/. It can be helpful for programming FPGAs. Let’s make a Ramp Wave: So the general idea is simple. There is a clock going into the FPGA. The code simple counts every time the clock tics. And then you are turning that into an output. Note: I had…

This website is really nice for understanding what happens in an resistance ladder: https://www.laiv.audio/post/what-is-an-r2r-dac-a-beginners-guide-to-resistor-ladder-digital-to-analog?srsltid=AU7gw4W5OnnDf9f2VvbnIL5Hj4_s42lz_eSTgxssjb_VcFGFYMkOUEpo Lets look a little deeper. I build the circuit in a simulator (https://www.circuitlab.com/) There are four voltages on the bottom. You can adjust all of them. But remember we are building a digital circuit and they can only be ones and…

Both of our Cosmic Pathways conferences are coming along amazing well.  I am so happy!  Registration is going great!  Reserve your spot today!  We will be selling out sooner than later. And it is all free! I have some exciting news for Illinois physics teachers!  After hearing this you will want to attend Cosmic Pathways…
