(pronunciation of "wpwrak") i'd just pronounce it as if it was a regular german word. sounds bumpy and ugly, but given that it's mainly optimized for uniqueness, that ought to be fine :)

err I fail to speak "wpwrak"
04:56
<
DocScrutinizer05 >
4 consonants :-o
04:57
<
DocScrutinizer05 >
"wepewrak" would work
04:57
<
wpwrak >
yeah, it's an effort to make it to he bonus vowel ;-)
04:58
<
DocScrutinizer05 >
even wepwrak
04:58
<
wpwrak >
maybe think of "wpwrak" as a stifled burp ;)
04:58
<
DocScrutinizer05 >
"wp" is unspeakable
04:58
<
wpwrak >
think "whip" and delete the "i" :)

on an unrelated topic I think I cought a slight cold in the night of tuesday to wednesday. which comes in handy for finishing the whole camp infra etc

indeed :) i'm kinda surprised i didn't get one of my own

larsc: I got a offer that somebody will give me a adf7242, but I am also happy to maintain at86rf2xx and to work with mrf24jFOOBAR
18:09
<
eintopf >
and of course work with atusb
18:10
<
eintopf >
not important, I will keep to work with at86rf2xx, mrf24jFOOBAR and atusb. It's still hard to keep everything up-to-date to the recent mainline state
18:11
<
eintopf >
so they have the latest greatest features
18:12
<
eintopf >
here my work for the mrfj24FOOBAR
18:12
<
eintopf >
I say foobar because I can't remember the last numbers
18:13
<
eintopf >
mrf24j40 ist the transceiver
18:13
<
eintopf >
but there exists mrf24j40ma and mrf24j40mc, etc some different boards
18:13
<
eintopf >
with amplifier or not
18:15
<
larsc >
eintopf: that somebody is boss, your adf7242 is on my desk, I'll ship it on monday
18:15
<
eintopf >
and why do you know my name >:-|
18:16
<
larsc >
I expected it to be you
18:17
<
eintopf >
does your company like to have the driver mainline?
18:17
<
larsc >
that was always the paln
18:19
<
eintopf >
yea but mainline is also not quite now, it's better than when the project was linux-zigbee
18:19
<
eintopf >
depends many people (inclusive myslef) have more effort to implement 6lowpan
18:19
<
eintopf >
the address family 802.15.4 is still somewhat broken at some places
18:20
<
eintopf >
but we working on this
18:20
<
eintopf >
the project grabs now some frameworks from wireless
18:23
<
eintopf >
larsc: how easily is it to connect some wires on the transceiver?
18:23
<
eintopf >
does it has some female connecters
18:23
<
eintopf >
connectors
18:23
<
eintopf >
I don't want to solder here much
18:23
<
eintopf >
and I am very bad in soldering
18:24
<
larsc >
it's a male header
18:25
<
larsc >
what baseboard do you want to use?
18:28
<
eintopf >
I have some beaglebones here and raspberry pi's
18:28
<
eintopf >
and I have wires
18:28
<
larsc >
we tested it ith the pi
18:28
<
eintopf >
in diffent colors male<->male, female<->male
18:28
<
larsc >
you'll need 7 wires. 4 for SPI, a interrupt and VCC and GND
18:29
<
eintopf >
VCC is 3.3?
18:30
<
eintopf >
and when I have other questions to things what the datasheet doesn't say anything. I can ask you?
18:32
<
eintopf >
this looks beautiful
18:32
<
eintopf >
I think the price is 1 cent cheaper each day
18:33
<
eintopf >
but the price is okay
18:34
<
eintopf >
I heard the eval board of adf7242 cost much
18:34
* eintopf
never looked what it costs
18:35
<
eintopf >
larsc: does the adf7242 have one frame buffer only?
18:35
<
eintopf >
or seperate rx/tx buffer?
18:35
* eintopf
need to look
18:36
<
larsc >
no idea to be honest
18:36
<
eintopf >
a separate
18:36
<
eintopf >
that's good
18:37
<
eintopf >
the at86rf2xx have one only, I expierence improvements at mrf24j40
18:37
<
eintopf >
mrf24j40 has also separate rx/tx buffer
18:39
<
eintopf >
ah cca mode 1 only
18:41
<
eintopf >
yea, datasheets looks okay
18:41
<
eintopf >
I am sure I have question when I look again into it
18:42
<
eintopf >
larsc: and can I have the source for the firmware? :-)
18:42
<
eintopf >
no, little joke :(
18:43
<
larsc >
probably not
18:43
<
larsc >
I don't have it either
18:44
<
larsc >
we are unworthy software developers ;)
18:46
<
eintopf >
mhh, where are the register settings for the address filter
18:46
<
eintopf >
maybe I should lookup it in the current driver
18:48
<
eintopf >
doesn't described inside the datasheet but driver use 0x116
18:48
<
eintopf >
base address 0x116 for the extended address
18:49
wolfspraul has quit [Quit: leaving]
18:51
<

I think I have not the
_real_ for internal use datasheet ;-)
18:52
<
eintopf >
#define REG_IEEE_ADDR_0 0x116
18:52
<
eintopf >
this isn't described in my version of datasheet
18:54
<
larsc >
All I have is what is on the public website
18:54
<
pcercuei >
it's a fake register IIRC
18:54
<
pcercuei >
handled by the firmware
18:57
<
eintopf >
so the datasheet doesn't represent the current available firmware?
18:59
<
pcercuei >
0x116 is for the 64-bit address
18:59
<
eintopf >
ahh here is the right document
18:59
<
pcercuei >
yeah. I don't know where that info actually comes from.
18:59
<
eintopf >
register map extensions
19:00
<
eintopf >
I will put that to my materials
19:00
<
pcercuei >
ah, great
19:01
<
pcercuei >
also, I'm pretty sure that the chip can work without any firmware
19:02
<
pcercuei >
(and then the advanced features are not available)
19:05
<
eintopf >
address filtering is also only a optional feature
19:05
<
eintopf >
to reduce workload
19:05
<
eintopf >
I think I will have more question when I work on it :/
19:06
<
eintopf >
also question is for me if the transceiver automatically detects if acknowledge request bit is set and waiting after transmit for an ack
19:06
<
eintopf >
or I need to go into some special state or do I need set some register bit for that
19:18
<
eintopf >
the transceiver will do that automatically
19:19
<
eintopf >
If it is set, then an acknowledgment
19:19
<
eintopf >
frame is expected following the transmission.
