| + | |||
| + | Following up from last weeks ESP32 LoRa quick start, here is a version for the STM32, and specifically Nucleo F303K8 or similar. | ||
| + | |||
| + | So if you need to slap together a quick LoRa-based project on an STM32 NUCLEO-F303K8 using STM32CubeIDE for testing, follow along here. | ||

| + | |||
| + | If you need to bang together a quick LoRa-based project on an ESP32 using esp-idf (not Arduino) so you can get going in a hurry, follow along here. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The focus on this quick start is to aim for 915MHz. Our setup will be configured to pull Meshcore packets out of air configured for the Australian NSW/ACT Regional settings. But you can easily change this for your region. | ||

| + | |||
| + | [[electronex_2026|{{:electronex:electronex-sign.jpg?direct&400 |}}]] | ||
| + | |||
| + | Last month I attended ElectroneX 2026. | ||
| + | |||
| + | For years I've been wanting to go to an [[https://www.linkedin.com/company/electronex-australia|ElectroneX]] show but every year something always gets in the way. | ||
| + | |||
| + | This year I got in touch with the Professor to see if he was keen to go. He definitely was, so we made a date of it. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ElectroneX is all about where businesses come together. If you're looking for ready-made parts to bring a product to market or to find vendors supplying connectors, components, small-form factor boards, this is the place to be. | ||

| + | |||
| + | Only the very astute among you would have noticed that I've been on a bit of a Commodore fanboy high since July 2025 with the resurrection of [[https://www.commodore.net|Commodore]] and the production of the [[https://www.commodore.net/category/computers|Commodore 64 Ultimate]]. | ||
| + | |||
| + | There are probably hundreds of reviews out there already. I've deliberately avoided reading any just yet while piecing this article together. But if I happen to wind up covering the same stuff... well, then I do. I wanted to write from the perspective of having used the machine for a number of weeks. | ||
| + | |||
| + | Short version? I'm still loving it! | ||

| + | |||
| + | Recently I worked on a product solution using a development platform based on the Nordic nRF9151 chipset, which was my first foray into Zephyr. | ||
| + | |||
| + | I needed my ISR to put items in a Message Queue. | ||
| + | |||
| + | And here is a where a problem occurred. This is a story of troubleshooting the not-so-obvious. | ||
