How a Key Matrix Work
Hello kwackers, thanks for this great controller, it is working great on the rotary table I built it for, but my brother has a table that has a 1500 turn to one rotation that he would like a controller for and the program as is does not support this.
I was wondering if you could add some post processing subrountine to increase the number of pulses that are put out, like a x5 output or something like that.
I have a friend who knows some c programming that may be able to look at the code and see if he could do something.
Let me know what you can do, or if you are willing to release the code.
Thanks,
Sam
Hi Sam,
I've looked at this in the past, basically the problem is at maximum step rate the interrupts occur at 10khz and the time it takes for them to calculate the next step (and acceleration/deceleration etc) accounts for 95% of the processor time.
This precludes (trivially) a post processor and switching the maths to 32/64 bit.
It's probably doable but would require a fair amount of reworking and rethinking how the current system works.
If your friend is interested he can look at the code attached to the first post in this thread for ideas on how he thinks it can be achieved, but whatever the solution is it can't take any longer than the current system.
Cheers.
Steve.
If anyone is interested I have PCB's available.
These are £6 (UKP). (Programmed pics are £7)
P&P UK is £2.20.
(Delivery costs are per order. Outside the UK please contact and I'll quote delivery separately).
You should be able to order these using Paypal from my site: www.worldofward.com
Cheers,
Steve.

Those look really cool, what would that be in american money.
Thank You
arche =) =) =)
Looks like you multiply by 1.5 to get $ (currently)
I'm going to add a 'shop' (I use the term loosely) on my website that allows you to click and pay with paypal. Hopefully that should remove the issues with currency.
I'll also figure out what the rough charges for postage outside of the UK are and add some way to pay them.
Hopefully I'll be able to complete that this evening.
HI Kwackers,
I would like 2 PCB's and 2 Pics. If you have PayPal you can send me a bill that way.
My e- mail is ' [email protected] '. To figure out the postage you need to know that I live in Vancouver , B.C. Canada.
Website is World of Ward :: Home.
I've added a 'shop' so it should be possible to order the pcb's and PIC's from there. I've separated out the postage and done some weighing and checking of postal charts so it should be correct.
Fingers crossed it *should* all work correctly. (Although the site seems a bit sluggish at the mo.)
(For the UK guys, apologies I had to increase the postage slightly in order to 'unify' it).
Hi Steve
your online shop almost worked
for some reason the postage charged was £0.00 plus £1.50 and not the £2.20 you intended
please send me a paypal invoice for the missing 70p
I should of checked before hitting the return key
I've sent the transaction number in a P.M.
thanks
John
Yes, I thought maybe you'd simply overlooked my query.http://www.smokemaps.com/7.jpg
