After having much fun with the PIC32 Starter Kit, I am currently moving on to the real boards. As expected, the previous USB code that worked on the starter kit no longer work properly on the real boards. Got the 2 LEDs to work on the boards and hence started Read more…
Last week was my final week in AESTE and I managed to wrap up all the C++ Drivers to spec thanks to Dr Shawn’s guidance as he nudged me ever so slightly in the right direction by questioning my thought process and making me reflect on the naming conventions that Read more…
I started this week by working on the bugs that I overlooked and it took me 2 days to solve all the bugs. After that I straight away working on the other project with another intern. We start working on the authentication part first which took us quite a while Read more…
This week started off with me making a terrible mistake. Dr. Shawn asked me to restructure the code as we need to start pushing any work related to front-end to the remote repository. I was instructed to download the zip file from admin-on-rest, unzip the file and push the whole Read more…
Last week I successfully completed the Gpio and Spi driver heavily inspired by a third-party API so that there is consistency in the way the code is written and how it is called. Referring to the latter, I’ve alse included a T3 namespace so that functions are now called via Read more…
This week I have fixed the last bug. I thought I have check and fix all the bugs but when Dr Shawn checked my works he said that there still a few bugs that he found in the project. I have to recheck and fix the bugs. It is my Read more…
Upon receiving the board, I started by getting the typical Hello World program to work (i.e. getting LEDs to light up). Of the 2 methods that can be used to toggle a pin which are 1. Directly writing values to TRISDX and RDX and 2. Using the PLIB Library which Read more…
First of all, I’m glad that the days of digging into POCO library and locating the code segment which removes elements upon exipration didn’t go wasted. I managed to get the caching expiration mechasmin done without any error despite having run into several problems before. For example, the actual code Read more…
After working with the project for 9 weeks, I am definitely more confident and productive than I was before. One of my task for this week is to write a REST api for the GNU debugger. I am familiar with the structure of a REST api because I have been Read more…
Based on my working code which was verified via the simulator, I started the week by implementing the API for the GPIO driver. Prior to this internship I have only used standard libraries on C & C++ and this would be the first time I’m implementing an API. Initially I Read more…
