Let's continue digging deeper into Arduino to see what's really going on with registers.

In order to use more advanced features or optimize our code for space and speed, we need to understand how to work with registers directly in microcontrollers.

Thanks for the great description! I hadn't even been aware of the existance of NNSS, though in the mid 1980s, I'd looked at LORAN-C for a…

Thanks for the L band sharing !

Over the years, I've been pretty vocal about wanting on-board RTCs, with at least the possibility of connecting something like a coin…

Not only does VBAT supply the RTC, but there’s also battery-backed RAM onboard too! With the amount of space available on the Thing Plus…

Interesting... it sort of covers one of my "hot buttons", that is having an RTC. In looking at the schematic, I noticed that the "BAT"…

But Social Engineer's LOVE him. Good job catching so many of the buttons social manipulators use, but I nearly thought Sparkfun was off…

There's a disclaimer at the very end, hopefully that's enough to keep people from attempting. Glad you liked it!

Update: I followed all of the steps listed in this guide. My computer is now virus-free! The fan keeps coming on and the hard drive is…

Nice job [REDACTED]! Very clever indeed. Top notch writing too. It had to have taken some quality time to put that piece together. I commend…

It looks like they do have one that works "Out of the box": [List of compatible…
