We will be starting the first of two classes aimed at interfacing our FPGAs to SRAM (datasheet). This class will focus on wiring, state machines, tri-state logic, and processes. We might not get through all of the topics. The slides for the upcoming and previous classes can be found here. The slides are generally made…

Its time for a Potluck this Saturday with some fire tornado action. Please post on the Google Doc so we know who is bringing what. If you’ve never been to see a Fire Tornado, check out one of our Video’s to see what your in store for.

This class will be a little different. Instead of getting a boring lecture from the instructor, there will be several fairly simple projects to choose from. All project ideas will have solved code available. Here is the current list (more might be added before class): Flash the LEDs once per second. Alternate flashing of the…

What: Introduction to soldering When: Monday, May 19th, 2014 at 7pm Where: Unallocated Space 512 Shaw Court Severn, MD 21144 If you want to learn how to solder or maybe just brush up on your soldering skills, come by UAS for our soldering class. We will be putting together the WeevilEye kits donated to UAS…

We will be creating a new VHDL module that counts up and down using two buttons. This will also involve switch debouncing. The slides for the upcoming and previous classes can be found here. The slides are generally made during the three days before a class. Agenda: 1. Overview of last class 2. Counting with…

Please join us for our weekly open house and an opportunity to explore together our new Lulzbot Taz 3 (3D Printer). UAS will be demonstrating and training our guest on the proper use of our new printer. – Discussing different types of printers, free software, and online resources. This is also an excellent opportunity to…

We will be finishing our work with seven segment displays. Last week we got our seven segments to display a flashing number ‘2’. This week we will make our seven segment module count using VHDL arrays. Additionally, we will go over, and implement a reset signal for our design. Time permitting, we will also remove…

The party will begin at noon and the grilling will start around 4pm. We will be providing some activities to partake in, to include music, board games, movies, soldering kits to make cell phone charger, and a guessing contest where people can guess how many LED are in a jar. We will have a 1st,…

On Memorial Day 2014, we will be hosting UnalloCTF 2.0! Registration is open at https://unalloctf2014.eventbrite.com

We will be learning about 7 segment displays and VHDL arrays. We will create a new VHDL module for displaying N numbers on a seven segment display using an array and a counter. The goal might be a little ambitious, so we might not get all the way to the end in one class. It…
