Embedded development, unit testing, and Port/Adapter/Simulator

I’ve been working on a project to decode pinball bus signals to figure out the current state of the lights on the machine.

Why I am doing that is still shrouded in mystery, but I’m to the point where I have the hardware ready to hook together for prototyping purposes. At this point, I would generally start writing code, but this is a bit more sophisticated than what I usually build – I have shift registers to read through serial, some decoding logic to write, and I need to detect whether a light is on, off, or flashing.

So, taking a page from my day job, I decided to write the code using TDD. One of the advantages at TDD is that it’s good at making progress if you aren’t quite sure what you need; you start building things that you need, and pretty soon you’re done.

Since I knew that I needed to be able to read serial data out of a the shift registers and convert it into bytes, I started writing a SerialToByte converter. And, I decided to write it in my fastest TDD language – C#.  My plan is to write the code – using as few non-C++ features as possible – get it all working, and then convert it to C++ code for the Arduino.

Once I had that, I decided to write the class that would talk with the 74HC595 shift register. Conceptually, the operation that I need to do is fairly simple:

  1. When new data is available (how will I know this?)
  2. Flip the shift register from parallel to serial mode (it’s just setting a pin to low).
  3. Read a bit
  4. Clock to the next bit
  5. repeat until 8 bits are read
  6. Flip the shift register back to serial mode

There is a problem, however; to talk to the shift register I need to send electrical signals to the hardware, which is something I can’t do until I’m writing code on the arduino and choosing pin assignments. Or can I?

The situation – dealing with external dependencies – is a common problem when using TDD, and there’s a great pattern to deal with it, which is described at length in my post: Port/Adapter/Simulator. Instead of building code that talks directly to the hardware, I can define an abstraction on top of the serial register. I’ll build a simulator that I can use for test purposes, and then a real version when I move the code to the arduino.

Here’s the abstraction (aka “port”):

interface IShiftRegister
{
byte GetBit();
void SetParallelMode(byte parallelMode);
void SetSerialClock(byte serialClock);
}

To test the code that uses this abstraction, I built a simulator (using TDD), along with a full set of unit tests for the simulator:

public class ShiftRegisterSimulator : IShiftRegister
{
public void SimulateParallelLoad(byte value) {}

public byte GetBit() {}
public void SetSerialClock(byte serialClock) {…}
public void SetParallelMode(byte parallelMode) {…}
}

The simulator implements the 3 methods in the port, and also one additional method to put values into the shift register. I also write a DataStrobeSimulator that lets me simulate an interrupt, and then I can write a test for the BusDataConverter class:

[Test]
public void when_strobe_with_a_medium_value__it_has_the_correct_value()
{
DataStrobeSimulator dataStrobe = new DataStrobeSimulator();
ShiftRegisterSimulator shiftRegister = new ShiftRegisterSimulator();

BusDataConverter busDataConverter =
new BusDataConverter(dataStrobe, shiftRegister);

shiftRegister.SetParallelMode(1);
shiftRegister.SimulateParallelLoad(179);
dataStrobe.SimulateStrobe();

Assert.AreEqual(179, busDataConverter.GetValue());
}

This test sets up the shift register simulator with a  value, simulates the strobe, and then verifies that the BusDataConverter correctly reads the data from the shift register.

So far, this approach has worked well; I’m confident that the code is pretty close to what I will need.


Decoding Pinball Bus Signals Part 3

A trip to Vetco yield three 34-pin IDC connectors and some ribbon cable. I built a nice & short cable, hooked it up, and the lights worked normally. So that is good.

The signals from the logic analyzer looked a little better, and I was able to make some measurements.

All the pulses are negative, which is expected because TTL is much better at sinking current than sourcing current.

The pulse width is 360nS. If that is one clock-tick wide, that means things are running at 2.78 MHz, which is pretty much as expected. The delay between the row/column strobes is about 2mS.

Let’s do some math:

At 16 MHz, the clock cycle time is 62.5 nS, which means I would have less than 6 clock cycles to respond to the interrupt and read the data values. My online reading has showed that the AVR needs at least 8 cycles just to *start* executing my interrupt vector, which means using interrupts to read the data directly isn’t going to work.

At which point we step back and analyze the options.

  1. Go with a different microcontroller. An arm-based solution running at 100+ MHz would probably work.
  2. They make buffer chips for a reason – just use them, and things will be great.
  3. Use polling

#1 sounds more complicated than I want to get right now. #2 would obviously work, at the cost of some additional external circuitry. My first reaction to #3 is “yuck yuck yuck”, because polling is rarely a clean solution, and it would probably be a bitch to get my logic plus I2C/ USB to work at the same time as polling. However, if I was willing to burn an extra AVR, I could probably build the bus-reading part in one and then use another one for the process & communication. Still yuck.

So, it looks like buffer chips are the simplest part. The driver board uses a 74LS374, which is an octal D-type positive edge-triggered flip-flop. When the clock signal goes from low->high (ie at the end of the strobe pulse), it grabs the current values on the inputs and saves them into the outputs, which could be read at our leisure.

So, just put one of these in-line with the data, hook it up to the strobe, grab an interrupt from the strobe, and then the data will be ready and waiting when we need it, right?

Well, that will work, but I need to get both row and column data out. If I use two buffers, that uses 16 input pins, plus two for the strobe interrupts, plus two for communication, which means 20 pins total. Which is precisely the number of pins on an arduino, so it will work, but with with no room for bells and whistles, which I much confess a certain fondness for.

If I come up with a way to combine the strobes, I can use a single buffer chip. What I want sounds like an OR operation, but remembering that the strobes trigger negative and spending a few moments with truth tables, it turns out what I really want is an AND; it will be high when both inputs are high, and will go low when either input is low.

And… that’s not going to problematic. The flip-flop is triggered on the rising edge which is right at the end of of the pulse. If we put a gate in front of it, we add a propagation delay of something like 20-50 nS, and we might miss the data.

Is there an alternative? Well, yes, there is. The 374 has an output enable input. Pull it low, and the chip will drive the outputs. Drive it high, and it disconnects the outputs. That will let us parallel two of the 374s and enable the one that we want from the Arduino. Works, but that is going to be a whole bunch of data lines and is going to make the circuit board layout interesting.

So, that’s where I am right now, but I’ve asked a few people if there are better alternatives.

There were a number of different faster microcontroller suggestions. There are a few that look workable – and I am professional at software and amateur at hardware – but I’m not excited about spinning up on a whole new toolchain.

On the hardware side, it turns out there are some better choices. A couple people suggested a 74HC165 as a nice choice, as it lets you read the data out serially. Slower, but with 7 less lines and the PCB routing in my head was already getting pretty bad. But… that chip both clocks in and clocks out on a master clock, which doesn’t work for what I need.

Enter the 74HC595, which has separate clocks for the store and read operations. It’s a tiny bit inconvenient in that it’s modal – you have to control whether it’s in “load in parallel on load clock” and “read out serially on read clock”, but it’s still simpler. I can only find it in SOIC, so I ordered some adapters from adafruit to go along with it. That, and some nice connectors for the ribbon cable. BTW, that thing that you put on the end of a ribbon cable is not called a “connector”, it’s called a “female header”. I have the usual digikey exasperation until I figured that out.

When that all shows up, I can breadboard the hardware, and then start on the software. The matrix decoding seems pretty straightforward to implement, but dealing with flashing lights looks to be challenging. While I could just send out a state change whenever a light turns on or off, it would be more convenient if I could just say that a specific light was on, off, or flashing. I have to do flash detection somewhere because I need to detect the difference between flashing and on for some things I want to do.


Decoding Pinball Bus Signals Part 2

The connection from the CPU board to the driver board uses 34 pins, in a standard 17×2 format. In the machine, it’s connected together by a short (4” or so) ribbon cable withi IDC (insulation displacement) connectors. If you were around when IDE drives were common, you’ve dealt with these connectors.

Look through my old stuff, I couldn’t find any cables that had 34 pins, but I did find an old 40-pin IDE drive cable with 3 connectors. I taped off one end the connectors, looked carefully at the schematics for the board, and wired up the logic analyzer to the third connector.

Then is was a simple matter to unlock the pin, remove the backglass, pull off the existing connector, and hook up the new cables. Turn on the pin, it boots up fine, and… none of the lights work. turn it off, pull the cable, replug it, turn it on, no lights. Put the factory cable back on, things work fine. My cable, no lights.

Not really sure why it didn’t work, but I was able to get a signal off of the analyzer. Sort of…

Hmm. What do we have?

Well, let’s start with the good news at the bottom. Channels 8 and 9 are the row and column strobes, and they are putting out nice signals, ones that should be easy to grab with the Arduino.

Channels 0-7 are supposed to be the data. What we see are really thin pulses (they do have some width to them, but not much) on some of the channels, and nothing on the rest of them. What’s going on? Well, I’d like to stress that I don’t know. What I do know is that the boards are built using TTL logic, and TTL inputs have a relatively low impedance, which limits the number of inputs you can drive with a single output (this is known as “fan out”). The data lines that I’m trying to read go to multiple boards, so my guess – well, actually, it’s more of a hope than a guess – is that the load of the analyzer plus not having the lines well terminated is causing the issue.

So, it’s off to Vetco to pick up some real 34-pin connectors and ribbon cable. I’ll make up a nice short cable, and we can see how that works with the analyzer.

If that doesn’t work, we’ll try the Arduino directly, which has nice high-impedance inputs, so it should put minimal load on the bus.


Decoding Pinball Bus Signals…

I have a project in mind for my Twilight Zone, the exact details of which I will reveal later.

To implement the project, I need to detect when specific lights are lit in the machine. I thought of a couple ways of doing it. I could put a light sensor underneath the playfield or I could hook up to the wires that power the lamp. Both are fairly straightforward to do, but they are a bit inelegant, and I’m in the mood do to something more elegant.

So… What if we could read the signals that the CPU sends to the driver board? We could figure out whether any of the lamps is lit with a single connection to the system?

Okay, so, what would that take?

Well, the Twilight Zone uses the WPC architecture, and is driven by a 6809 running at 2 MHz. I don’t know if that’s the bus speed and am too lazy right now to find out, but I’m hoping that I can do what I need with an arduino running at 16 MHz.  What do I need to do? Well, that requires a bit of a journey…

The lamp matrix

Pinball machines have a lot of light bulbs, and running an individual wire would be expensive. So, instead of running separate wires, machines use a lamp matrix.

We have 8 rows, and 8 columns. To turn on a light, we drive the column to positive voltage and the row to ground, allowing current to flow. With a bit of code, we can drive them all. Basically, the code looks like this:

  1. Drive all columns low.
  2. Drive the rows that we want to light in the first column low.
  3. Drive the first column high
  4. Wait, and then repeat steps 1-3 with each additional column.

Digging into my WPC Schematic manual, we find some nice designs about the row and column drivers. What we are interested in is the method that is used to pass the row and column information to the driver board. It turns out it’s pretty simple:

  • Both the rows and the columns have a 74LS344 latch connected between the CPU bus and the row/column driver electronics.
  • The latches are clocked (ie data is loaded into them) when a line (ROW_STROBE or COL_STROBE) from the CPU is driven high.

So, in concept, what the microcontroller needs to do is pretty simple. First off, we need external interrupts defined and hooked to ROW_STROBE and COLUMN_STROBE. When either of the interrupts fire, we need to quickly grab the value from the data bus. From that, we can tell which lamp is in which state, and pass that information on. I would also like to detect flashing lights, which will require a bit more code.

I bought a small logic analyzer from Seed Studio so that I can eavesdrop on the bus and see what is really going on. That will probably be the subject of the next post.


Animated snowman–Part 4

Progress on the snowman has been a bit slow. Most of what it left is getting the animations to where I like them, which involves a lot of iterations of writing some code, downloading it, debugging it (through the serial port and/or using an oscilloscope), and then working on a new version.

I’ll drop all the code on Github when I’m done with it. I built a couple of nice classes.

ColorFader knows what its current color is and then does a smooth fade (over however many steps you want) from that color to your target color. It uses fixed-point fractional math, a nice little technique that we used to use in the old days to do smooth movement without fast floating point operation.

The problem is if I want to move from the value 1 to the value 8 in 50 steps. If I had floating point, I’d just divide 7/50 and get something like 0.14, and add that on each step. Here’s what I do instead:

| full byte | fractional byte|

So, to go from one to 8, I set my initial values into the full byte.

1 => | 1  | 0 | = 512

8 => | 8  | 0 | = 4096

I can now figure out my delta, which is (4096 – 512) / 50 = 71. That is the value I will add each increment. The stored current value will look like this:

Full  Fractional

| 1 |   0 |

| 1 |  71 |

| 1 | 142 |

| 1 | 213 |

| 2 |  28 |

| 2 |  99 |

| 2 | 170 |

| 2 | 241 |

| 3 |  56 |

The number we pull out as the actual value is the full byte, but the fractional part makes it change in a smooth way. This technique also works with wider data types (ie you can have a two-byte (unsigned short) full value and use two bytes for the fraction), but color values only range from 0-255 so this is all I need.

Because the fractional value is not exact (it’s really 71.68), we will lose 0.68 * 50 = 34 from our target, so we will only get to 7 (+ a fraction) rather than 8 on our animation. That’s generally okay for this sort of application.

I also build ColorFaderMultiple, which chains <n> of the faders together so it switches to the next as soon as one fade is done.

Animations

I ended up with four animations:

  1. A startup animation fades in from dark to white
  2. A random color animation that gives each globe and other sections a solid color
  3. A blend animation that chases colors through all the leds in the globes
  4. A bounce animation.

You can find the final version of the code in my github repository.

Appliances

As-built, the snowman has eyes and nose that are just raw LEDs poking through. The mouth and the buttons are raw LEDs behind the globe.

Everybody knows that snowmen have long thin noses, so I decided to print a conical nose out of natural PLA, and that worked pretty well. Things kind of snowballed (HA HA!) from there; I did a octagonal star as a button cover, and it both diffused the light and covered up the LED strip that was visible from behind, so I decided to do more.

The eyes were originally 1” printed PLA discs. They worked, but they didn’t really look like eyes because they weren’t pointed forward. I designed some better ones by building a hollow tube with a flat bottom (think soup can), added a negative ball (“hole” in Tinkercad language) centered over the tube, and then moved it to the side to mimic the distance of the eye from the part of the globe that points right at the viewer. I then dropped the globe so that it cut into the tube, stopping when it left about 4mm on the shortest side.  These looked great.

I ended up printing 3 different shapes to use as the buttons. To make them a little more cool, I used the same technique to get them to conform to the shape of the sphere. They also looked nice. That left me with the mouth showing bright LEDs from behind. So, I decided to take the same approach with the mouth. Here are all the appliances:

I put the snowman under conscious sedation and attached all the appliances with silicone cement. I also sealed the nose and eyes with silicone so there’s a bit more water protection.

 

Wiring

There was a tiny bit of wiring left to do. I built a little harness that has a header for power coming in (5V @ 3 amps), two headers for the arduino (two pins to supply 5V and GND, and one to pull the animation signal). This harness is wired in to the snowman wiring, and includes a 220 ohm resistor in the signal line and a 220uF capacitor across the power line (both recommended by Adafruit).

I needed something to put the Arduino in. After looking at a few case designs, I decided to do my own. It’s a very simple box with a slide-on cap, and sliced with Slic3r and printed on my Printrbot Simple metal, the cap fits tightly.  A different slicer and/or printer may require some tuning.

Video

The quality for this is a bit poor, but you will get the basic idea. The colors are much better in real life. The brightness is deliberately turned down because otherwise the feature RGBs overload the sensor and they just look white.

Animated Snowman–Part 3

I’ve done quite a bit of work. First off, I’ve finished the bridge to hold the dodecahedra in the top globe. Here’s what it looks like:

The next globe is then attached with a nut and a washer:

 

 

 

The two additional dodecahedra have been built, as has the rest of the supporting armature:

The middle section is connector to the top section with a 3/8” coupler, and the coupler is Loctite’d to the top of the middle section, and the same thing is done with the bottom one. I verified that they all fit together correctly, but decided to add some silicone sealant to the ends of the arms so that they would be a bit more secure.

A bit about the arms. They are angled to miss the top of the globe that it underneath it, and then the outer ends are rotated so that they meet the globe at the proper angle. Then, the upper arm has a slightly different design so that it can stack on top of the lower one. The angle is based upon the size of the sphere, so, in all, there are 6 different arms. They were all designed using TinkerCad, and you can find them here, named “globe fixing <size>”.

Oh, and the arms change in color because the spool on my natural PLA broke, and I came into the room to find my PrintrBot climbing up the filament.

With the armature all done, the next task was to start working on the eyes and mouth for the head. Here’s the layout I ended up with:

I established the center line and put the nose pretty much in the middle, and then played around with different eye locations. The darker circles are what I ended up for both the eyes and the nose. The nose and eyes were drilled out with a 5/16” (just bigger than 8mm) step drill I picked up for $7 from Harbor Freight. I don’t normally buy much there but I didn’t want to spend $45 for the Craftsman version.

The mouth was a bit harder. With a bit of playing around, I figured out that LEDs from the strip looked pretty good if they were inside the sphere. I needed a way to hold them in the proper orientation, which took me back to the printer:

That worked out nicely. The next task was to wire the head LEDs together. At the start there would be a connector (so I can build the sections separately), then the wiring would head to the smile, the nose, the two eyes, and then to another connector and on to the head dodecahedron. I stuck the 8mm LEDs into the eyes and nose from the outside so I could get the wire lengths good, and started soldering. After about 30 minutes later, I had the smile and the nose & eyes hooked up, and I plugged them into my test rig, and turned on the power. All the LEDs turned on, except the 8mm ones were a different color – this was expected because they use RGB ordering instead of GRB ordering, and I planned to handle this is in software. I watched the test pattern, and detected some flickering with some colors. Played around a bit – added 220uF to the power leads, added a 500 ohm resistor between the arduino and the string, but it didn’t help. Hooked up the dodecahedron after the eyes, and it just sort of flickered along. Not good.

Did some internet searches, played around some more, and came to the conclusion that the 8mm neopixels do not get along well with the strip neopixels. So, I desoldered all of them and replaced them with leds from the strip. Plugged them in, and everything was working great.

Installed them into the head with my hot glue gun, which was a bit of a challenge; it’s pretty hard to get one arm to hold the LED and another one with a glue gun through a 5 1/4” opening. Finally got them all glued in and got the smile glued in as well:

 

This is without the dodecahedron in the middle. The smile is also bleeding up a little because there is a gap between the strip and the globe at the top part of the smile; I’ll probably just cover that with some black electrical tape.

I need something more snowmannish for the nose; I printed out a couple of noses with “natural PLA”, and I might do the same thing for the eyes, or perhaps I’ll just use ping-pong balls. I might need to put some silicone directly over the LEDs to help protect them from water.  For some reason they show up yellow in the picture, but they’re pretty white in real life.

Finally, I thought you might be interested in my workbench. I really need to spend some time cleaning to get some of the other projects off of it as I keep losing tools:

Animated snowman–Part 1

Looking for some LED lights a while back, I came across some acrylic light globes; the kind that you find on stair landings in apartment buildings. I noted that they came in various sizes, from around 8” up to 30” and beyond. I realized that you could put three globes together and make a decent snowman for very little cost. So, I ordered, a 14”, 12”, and 10” spheres, and each of them has a 5 1/4” hole in the bottom. They stack up nicely:

That gives me a snowman about 3’ tall. The next question is, “what do I do with him?”

Well, the first part is that it’s obviously going to be lit up, and it’s also going to use LEDs to do it. Having worked with a number of project before, I’m not really excited to build another 8 or 16-channel custom controller along with the associated electronics and cabling; it’s a lot of grunt work. A *lot* of grunt work, and I only have 3-4 weeks to get this done.

I’m therefore going to leverage advantages of technology, and instead of going with individual LEDs, I’m using WS2812 LEDs. These amazing little devices are an integrated RGB LED + controller, and you just chain them together. So, instead of running a bunch of different wires, I can daisy-chain each LED together. I can then hook up the end to a microcontroller and address all of them individually.

I’m going to start with a meter of LED strip, which has 60 individual LEDs. I’ve chosen to buy it from Adafruit, because I like what they do:

You can definitely find cheaper versions elsewhere; I’ve seen some on ebay less than $10, though they aren’t waterproof (I don’t really need the waterproofing for this ). The strips can be cut apart between the leds, so you can think of this as 60 individual easy-to-wire-together LEDs rather than one big strip.

I also picked up some individual ws2812 pixels (the black part is the driver chip):

 

and some diffused 8mm pixels:

 

All of these use the same technology and can be hooked together. Once again, the individual leds are cheaper elsewhere if cost is a big issue. I know some people who wanted large quantities have ordered them through aliexpress.com and gotten them much cheaper.

Driving them does take a good 5V supply, and you are the wiring you use to hook the +5V and ground wires together. If you get to bigger lengths, you have to provide power in the middle. If you are using an arduino – as I will – you are also limited by the memory of the arduino, since each pixel takes a byte. Neither are an issue for this project.

So, basically, the plan is to use put strips inside so that the illuminate the globe, and then do something for eyes/nose/mouth.

I haven’t decided how to light the interiors. I found that just putting an array of leds at the bottom gave a nice overall glow, but I could also put a dodecahedron in the middle of the globe, which would give me 10 leds pointed all around the globe. Similar amounts of illumination, but it would give me the opportunity to animate the leds in interesting patterns.

I’m also working on how to hold them together. I could use simple 3-d printed clips, or I could use threaded rod up the middle. I think I’m leaning a bit towards sections of hollow threaded lamp rod; I could run the power & signal up inside them, and then could be used to hold the globes together as well.

Eyes/mouth/nose will be one of the following:

  1. A led pixel on the inside, which gives a little circle of light on the outside.
  2. An led pixel on the outside with a ping-pong ball over it as a diffuser
  3. An 8mm diffuse led through a hole with or without a diffuser.

#2 and #3 seem the nicest, and I’ll play around with them a bit.


Microcontroller RGB LED Animation Software

I’m building a project using non-addressable RGB strip, where all of the LEDs in the strip are connected in parallel and are therefore the same color. I thought it might be a bit useful to talk about the techniques that I’m using in the software, and some of the options & tradeoffs that exist.

The hardware and code are from the Arduino world, but they apply equally well in other ecosystems.

Hardware choices

The LED strip is composed of RGB LEDs, which are in turn made up of separate Red, Green, and Blue LEDs. Simplistically, I can get 8 colors out of the combinations of these colors:

  1. Red
  2. Green
  3. Blue
  4. Yellow (Red + Green)
  5. Purple (Red + Blue)
  6. Cyan (Blue + Green)
  7. White (Red + Green + Blue)
  8. Black

To get more colors, I need to be able to do something more than just turn a color on or off – I need to control the intensity of each color independently. While it is possible to control LED brightness directly by controlling the current through it, that is fairly complicated, so in most cases we take a shortcut. If we want half the light output, we flash the LED so that it is only on for 50% of the time. This would seem to produce a flashing LED, but because of the way our vision works, if the flashing is quick enough, we see not a flashing LED but a dim one. This technique is known as “Pulse Width Modulation”, or PWM. Doing it 60 times per second (ie 60 Hertz, or Hz) is a minimum bar, but I like to shoot for 100Hz. A lot of cheap holiday LED lights flicker at 60 Hz and if you move you head you can see it.

The number of colors we can get depends on how many levels of intensity we support. 64 levels gives us 64 * 64 * 64 = 262144 different colors, while 256 levels gives us about 16 million. We want enough to give us smooth fades between colors, and I think 64 levels is probably significant.

PWM is also used for controlling the speed of some motors and for driving servos.

PWM Implementation

PWM is such a useful technique that it is implemented in hardware on many microcontrollers. Using the hardware PWM has a lot of advantages:

  1. You don’t have to write/debug/maintain the PWM implementation.
  2. You don’t have to deal with interrupt-driven code, which is more complex and a bit mind-bending at first.
  3. The hardware PWM does not consume any execution resources, so your software has 100% of the microcontroller to use.
  4. It’s very simple

So, hardware PWM is great. However, it has some disadvantages, the biggest being a limited number of PWM channels per microcontroller. The Atmel ATMega386 in the Arduino supports 6 individual channels. I’m using a Trinket, which is built around the ATTiny85 microcontroller, and therefore supports only 3 channels. Hardware PWM is also limited to a specific number of discrete levels. If you need a lot of outputs and/or more discrete levels, there are boards that you can connect to your microcontroller that can do more channels at with more levels, such as this 16-channel one.

If the hardware PWM support is not enough, PWM can be implemented in software. We configure the microcontroller to call a bit of code at a specified interval, and in that code, we decide whether the output should be on or off.

This gives us a bunch of flexibility; we can, at least in theory, do PWM on every single output on a microcontroller. However, the code that is running is taking up system resources, and at some point we won’t have any resources to do any other work.

Animation storage

There are two ways of storing animation; we can express them in procedural code such as:

DoFade(redTarget, blueTarget, greenTarget, fadeTime)

and then create a program that has one DoFade() for each animation. Or, we can do a table-driven approach, where we express what we want in a table:

Red Target Blue Target Green Target Fade Time
255 0 0 15
255 255 255 45
etc.      

And then write a very simple program to loop through the entries in the table sequentially.

The table-driven approach has simplicity going for it, and works well in most cases. It doesn’t work well in cases where there are repeated patterns; if we wanted to fade from red to green and back to red 50 times quickly, that would take 100 entries in the table, but would only require a short loop to write procedurally. There are ways to get around this by making the table more complex.

Architectural options

There are a few different architectural options. In rough order of complexity:

  1. Use hardware PWM and code in the main thread (ie “loop()” in the arduino world) to drive the animation.
  2. Use hardware PWM and a separate timer interrupt to handle the animation. The timer interrupt code is called a fixed number of times a second, and that code drives the animation.
  3. A timer interrupt to implement the PWM (software PWM) and to handle the animation.

There is also a fourth option – using a timer interrupt for PWM and splitting the animation between the timer interrupt and the main thread. I built one system that does that, but I think it ends up being more clever than necessary.


RGB Strips Construction

With the electronics done on my RGB project, I moved on to the physical construction.

As a veteran of a number of these projects, I’ve learned that the electronics part is always the easy part; it’s all of the physical construction (wiring/cabling/support) that takes the time. I’ve also learned the new projects need to be quick to put up; it already takes too long for me to put up the current displays.

The LED strips that I’m using are quite flexible, so they need some support. I chose 1/2” EMT electrical conduit as my mounting method. I have 67’ to cover, so I bought 7 lengths of the tubing for about $3.50 each. The strip has an adhesive backing on it (it claims to be a 3M adhesive, but counterfeiting is rampant in China, so I’d be surprised if it is…), so it’s a simple matter of attaching the strip.

The first step is to mark a straight line along the conduit.

To do this, you need a way to hold the tubing so it won’t spin. I used a 8’ cutting guide that I have, and a sharpie to mark the edge. If you don’t have that, a baseboard in a room that has hard flooring would work just as well.

Next, slowly peel of the adhesive of the strip as you move along the tubing, and stick it down. The strip is made to be attached to a flat surface, so it won’t adhere perfectly. I used zip ties to give some extra security.

I needed a nice way to joining the pieces of conduit together. I originally just wanted to use conduit connectors, but they don’t really hold the joint very straight and they make the tubing wider, so I did some searching in my hardware store, and found some connectors for flexible pipe that worked just fine. One end is a tight fit, and I ground down the connector so the others just slide on. I’ll note in passing that inside diameter of 1/2” EMT is 0.6 inches, and the outer diameter is around 0.7 inches. Here’s a picture of them.

This shows a tactical error I made; the strips can only be cut on the segments between them, so I let them run long, and made sure they overlapped correctly. It was a bit of a pain. On the second set, I got smart and trimmed the conduit to the length that I needed. Here’s what the completed sections look like:

There are connectors at both ends because I need to feed power from both ends to keep the voltage constant; they are Molex connectors that took a long time to put on; each one gets crimped and soldered.

I bought a 250’ spool of 12-gauge landscape wire, and then soldered on some more connectors. I used hot glue to insulate the connections and hold everything together.

After a lot of work, I got it done, and then surveyed the carnage:

 

and here are a couple of shots of the final result:

That intense red line is the RGB strip. Note that it’s really hard to take crisp pictures of lights, as they tend to bloom.

 

Here’s a closer picture; you can sort-of see the individual leds. At this distance – 20 feet or so – you can see the individual light sources pretty easily.
