| mithro | Yeah | 00:17 |

| mithro | The PIC firmware on the TOFE LowSpeedIO board is the same one and can do 115200 | 00:18 |
| mithro | And we could get rid of the switch stuff by just having two serial ports | 00:19 |
| mithro | shenki: just need to figure out the SPI flash part and we could replace the PIC firmware | 00:21 |
| shenki | mithro: okay | 00:23 |
| shenki | mithro: what kind of programmer do i need for the pic? | 00:23 |
| mithro | I'm pretty sure it has the HID bootloader on it | 00:24 |
| mithro | I also have a PICKit3 | 00:24 |
| shenki | how do i get it into the bootloader? | 00:25 |

| shenki | uses a proprietary compiler? | 00:27 |
| mithro | Yeah, ran out of time to port to sdcc | 00:34 |
| shenki | ok. this would be a good task for someone more familair with pics and their toolchain | 00:34 |
| shenki | did you see i got a LED python module working? | 00:34 |
| mithro | Not yet | 00:35 |
| shenki | the video is in the hangout | 00:35 |
| mithro | Yeah | 00:37 |
| shenki | the api isn't great | 00:39 |
| shenki | i suspect we want something common to all boards in upy land for doing leds | 00:40 |
| shenki | i was teaching myself how to do a module | 00:40 |
| shenki | next up is 7-segment | 00:40 |
| mithro | I think katharos wanted to give that a go | 00:52 |
| katharos | Sure, but I can't just hold the lock forever | 00:52 |
| mithro | shenki: want to try getting a file system stuff going? | 00:53 |
| katharos | it's ok, I can find something else to contribute | 00:53 |
| mithro | We need to get the sdcard going | 00:53 |
| katharos | tbh I don't even know where to start and I'm still getting my head around everything | 00:53 |
| shenki | yeah i can do the sd card thing | 00:54 |
| mithro | Did Florent share the stuff he was getting working with key2 | 00:55 |
| shenki | nope | 00:55 |
| mithro | Apparently qemu stuff to | 00:55 |

| shenki | ok. what does it do? | 00:59 |
| mithro | Not sure :-P | 01:00 |
| mithro | I think it let's you read the contents of a sdcard | 01:00 |
| shenki | ok | 01:02 |
| shenki | i don't think we need any special gateware to do a sdcard as we don't need high performance | 01:03 |
| shenki | (as in, if there was lots of data we might want a sd card controller that does dma and stuff) | 01:03 |
| mithro | It would be nice to be able to load firmware from sdcard | 01:07 |
| shenki | yeah | 01:15 |
| shenki | mithro: do you have plans for how to make the firmware modular or specific to the platform? | 01:16 |
| shenki | mithro: the hdmi2usb doesn't fit once i added the CAS stuff, so i just disabled building it | 01:16 |
| mithro | Not really, although we probably want the CAS stuff in the HDMI2USB to | 01:18 |
