h1. Hardware Links * "Raspberry Pi":http://www.raspberrypi.org * CHiP * [[ESP8266]] ** "ESP Open SDK":https://github.com/pfalcon/esp-open-sdk - open source SDK for ESP8266 ** ""NodeMCU":https://github.com/nodemcu/nodemcu-firmware - lua based firmware for MCU like ESP8266 *** This has links to "esptool":https://github.com/themadinventor/esptool for flashing firmware to device ** "ESPlorer":https://github.com/4refr0nt/ESPlorer is a Java IDE for the ESP8266 ** "Arduino core for ESP8266":https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino - look under doc for libraries, etc. ** "ESP8266 Arduino forum":http://www.esp8266.com/viewforum.php?f=25 h1. AC Control # TRIACs: Low cost, high current handling capability. # Traditional relay: moving parts, relatively low cost, very high current # Solid State Relay: Higher cost, no moving parts. Advantage over TRIACs is that SSR can interrupt current at any point in the AC waveform. TRIACs only cut off current at the zero-crossing point. h1. DC Control TBC h1. Stepper Motor Control # TI DRV8811: Integrated FETs, up to 1.9A per coil http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/drv8811.pdf # (Toshiba?) TB6612: Used on adafruit and other boards: https://www.adafruit.com/products/2448 Documentation/sourcing appears limited
