Other / Messing with a 4029 counter IC
« on: August 15, 2012, 05:11:17 pm »
This is my current main project: messing with a 4029. This is a really fun chip: it counts up to 15 in binary, and both up and down! This video here shows what I've done with it so far (made a clock using a 555, got some sort of LED output, and have some of the config pins wired to DIP switches).



My future plans are to get the preset pins wired to DIP switches, make the clock speed variable, and get this whole thing finalized and put on a printed circuit board.

If the character flew up a bit (just a couple pixels) whenever the squashers hit would also be a really cool effect.

You might want to ask your friend where he got this LCD, that could give some clues.
I did ask him, and he told me it uses the HD44780 chip which is very well documented, so problem solved.

Also how much pins has your screen?
14 pins.

Other / [solved!!] LCD screen...no datasheets?
« on: August 14, 2012, 04:40:15 pm »
A friend gave me a small alphanumeric LCD screen to use for my homemade computer project, but I can't find any datasheets or documentation for it online. It is made by Data Vision, and there are 2 numbers on the board: "P129-1A", and "16252-S2RP". Does anyone know where I could get some information on this display?

But the next day,  the server got hacked, the spawn and the city got destroyed! D:
I think that was my IRL friend bananasv3. He said something about himself destroying epic's ore shop...

I don't really do any calculator development, and almost everything here is calculator-related (contests, most of the forum) and I only do computer development, I don't really do much here anymore.

How about the Commodore 64? I've been wanting a Commodore 64 emulator for Nspire for a while, and I think it might be possible.

My username is Spyro543 (obviously :P) I'd love to try out this new server sometime! :D

387
I don't know how laggy the server is, because when I play on it, I obviously have no lag :P and I have a bandwidth cap so I don't want the server running for no reason.

388
Would anyone be interested in playing on this server at all? If you are, please post!! I'm not going to waste bandwidth keeping this server up if no one's going to play on it. Note: I can't start up the server up today, so if you want to play, you'll have to wait until tomorrow.

389
The storm is over and the power came back on, so I'm going to turn on the server for a little bit.

390
I have to shut down the server for an undefined amount of time. REALLY BAD STORM AT MY HOUSE. Look here: http://www.weather.com/weather/map/interactive/Glenmont+OH+44628:4:US Server will be back up either tomorrow or when the storm subsides. Sorry. :(
