Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

Tibbit #52 (Four-channel ADC)

The node module for data collection from Tibbit #52 (Four-channel isolated +/-10V ADC) block.

Installation Instructions

The module is available as precompiled binary and C source code.

Install the module

npm install @tibbo-tps/tibbit-52

Usage

var ADC = require("@tibbo-tps/tibbit-52").init(socket, channel);

API Methods:

init(socket, channel, singleReadMode)

  • socked - TPP socket number
  • channel - ADC channel number, 1 to 4

Returns an object with a singe method:

.getVoltage()

Returns an object with the following properties:

  • error - error message, is undefined if no error occured
  • status - operation status, 0 if no error occured
  • voltage - voltage, mV

Example:

var tibbit52 = require("@tibbo-tps/tibbit-52").init("S13", 1);
setInterval(function(){
    var data = tibbit52.getVoltage();
    if(data.status === 0){
        console.log("Voltage: "+data.voltage)
    }else{
        console.log("Error: "+data.error)
    }
},1000);

About the Tibbit #52 block

This ADC Tibbit uses four ADC1100 16-bit analog-to-digital converter ICs. All four converters are used in the differential mode, i.e. the "+" and "-" lines of each ADC are exposed to the outside world.

ADCs are connected to a PIC16F1824 microcontroller. PIC micro interfaces ADCs to the main CPU of the TPP board and also stores the calibration data in its EEPROM. This calibration data is written into the EEPROM during manufacturing, when each ADC channel is individually tested and calibrated. The calibration data reduces the full-scale error caused by the imperfection of ADC input divider stages (not shown on the diagram).

To lower noise and improve resolution, this Tibbit has its own isolated power domain.

ADC characteristics:

  • Each channel measures signals from -10V to +10V.
  • With our official Tibbo BASIC library (performing the data correction using the calibration data) you can measure the voltage level on one channel in about 140ms.
  • Effective flicker-free resolution is better than 13 bits.
  • Zero offset error is within 0.005% of the input signal's scale (20V, from -10V to +10V).
  • Full-scale nonlinearity error is around 1% (after the range correction).

Combine this Tibbit with #20 (nine terminal blocks) or #19 (DB9M connector). It's not common but possible to use the latter for wiring into the ADC's inputs.

There are two red, one yellow, and one green LED. The first red LED is connected to the SCL line of the I2C interface, the second one — to the -RST line of the PIC micro. The yellow LED is connected to the SDA line of the I2C interface. The green LED is on the -INT line.
