McKee Maker: Remote Control Multiplexer Part 4

http://www.mckeemaker.com/2012/12/remote-control-multiplexer-part-4.html

Thursday, December 20, 2012. Remote Control Multiplexer Part 4. IR Transmitter Modules and the IR Receiver. Final result prior to installation. I started with some cheapo RCA phono jacks I picked up at Fry's for about $2.50 per box of 5 and combined them with IR LEDs. This is the finished transmitter outside of its wooden home. It's important to try to keep these things fairly short in order to make fitting them into their housings as easy as possible. This is what it looks like once they're put together...

McKee Maker: Remote Control Multiplexer Part 3

http://www.mckeemaker.com/2012/11/remote-control-multiplexer-part-3.html

Saturday, November 24, 2012. Remote Control Multiplexer Part 3. In order to interface the Arduino with the large number of outputs in such a way as to make it impossible to mistakenly broadcast to multiple boxes at once I used a multiplexer. The multiplexer of choice was the CD74HC4067, in this case presoldered to a breakout board from Sparkfun (. Wedge before the butchery. The box was a 5" x 2.5" x 2" project enclosure from Radio Shack for those interested. Notice that the MUX board is inverted; in orde...

McKee Maker: Fix for cgminer blank screen with GPU water cooling

http://www.mckeemaker.com/2014/01/fix-for-cgminer-blank-screen-with-gpu.html

Friday, January 10, 2014. Fix for cgminer blank screen with GPU water cooling. CGMiner is unhappy before this fix and requires the text only option (-t) to run. Lately I've been working on a project ( posted here. To install an Asetek based all-in-one water cooler on an AMD R9 290, similar to the recently release kit by NZXT but with custom removable heat sinks. Buy this: Graphics Card Cooling Fan Connector to 4-Pin PWM Connector Adapter / Conversion Cable. Use it to plug a 3 pin. I suggest using a 3 pin...

McKee Maker: Remote Control Multiplexer Part 2

http://www.mckeemaker.com/2012/11/remote-control-multiplexer-part-2.html

Friday, November 23, 2012. Remote Control Multiplexer Part 2. As mentioned before my goal with this project was to produce a functional and reliable device with relatively minimal time and money. To this end I made use of the IRremote library produced by Ken Shirriff at http:/ arcfn.com. User channel 02 = mux pin 0. Check out the latest code here:. Https:/ github.com/emckee4/remoteMUXv2/blob/master/remoteMUXv2.ino. RemoteMUX by Evan McKee. Send any unrecognised (or non sony) code. Although I may keep it ...

McKee Maker: DIY VRM heat sinks for AMD R9 290

http://www.mckeemaker.com/2014/01/diy-vrm-heat-sinks-for-amd-r9-290.html

Thursday, January 16, 2014. DIY VRM heat sinks for AMD R9 290. In my last post. I showed step by step how to add an all-in-one Asetek based CPU cooler to a reference board based AMD r9 290. In this post I'll show how to make the VRM heat sinks needed for that build as well as for users of kits like the NZXT G10 who want to maintain the ability to return their cards to stock. The Hand Tool Based Option. Finished VRM heat sinks made with hand tools. Which was under $7. Equivalent. I've seen the same th...

McKee Maker: DIY Asetek Water Cooling on an R9 290

http://www.mckeemaker.com/2014/01/diy-asetek-water-cooling-on-r9-290.html

Thursday, January 16, 2014. DIY Asetek Water Cooling on an R9 290. In this project I show how to mount an Asetek based water cooler (in this case the inexpensive Corsair H55) to a reference R9 290. In this post I'll cover the mounting of the cooler and the fan while in the next post. Step 1: Removing the stock cooler. Now is also a good time to carefully clean the thermal paste off of the GPU using a soft cloth or cotton ball and rubbing alcohol. Step 2: drilling/milling the top mounting bracket. And usi...

McKee Maker: Remote Control Multiplexer Part 1

http://www.mckeemaker.com/2012/11/remote-control-multiplexer-part-1.html

Wednesday, November 14, 2012. Remote Control Multiplexer Part 1. In this project I go over how I quickly and inexpensively created a system to individually control each of many identical satellite boxes with one remote control. This design must have the following characteristics:. Definitely less than $100 in parts, preferably less than $50). It must be easy to change which receiver is being signaled. It must allow operation of individual receivers without spillover/accidents. View my complete profile.

Sports Engineering – Product Development – Data Analytics – Research Applications. Skip to primary content. General App and Project Support. Dealing with the Heat. November 15, 2015. A while back, I wrote a post about overheating in the iPad. And possibly some adverse effects on certain cognitive. So how do we deal with this heating issue that affects athletic performance? On top of ensuring proper hydration and sticking to safety guidelines. Mostly common sense), there are a number of cooling strategies...
