how to setup a mqqt server in aws?

Oonky Yes, I am working on one. Low power device.

Navadeep•2/22/24, 7:10 AM

are you on MSP430FR seires?
I agree with the tediousness coming to MSP libraries and APIs. Not quite intuitive as ST or Renesas. Nordic nRF54 series and SiLabs C8051F have pioneered low power one with radio and other for low-end processing.
During college, I learnt assembly on one of these MSP430FR5994 launchpads from this Prof's YouTube https://www.montana.edu/blameres/

A 4-20mA loop for sensors? This is a classical industry method for all types of monitoring. They have some theory - no loss in the signal across any distance.

I have worked on Infineon series of parts and seen their Capsense which is ultimate. Note that it is MCU integrated in their PSoC series of chips and provides and GUI to configure sensitivity, pattern etc. If you're looking for external IC, check https://www.ti.com/product/FDC2214
opens up quite interesting applications.

an beautiful reference design https://www.ti.com/tool/FDC2214PROXSEN-EVM (this actually matters alot - getting the design right just like PCB antennas)

In a separate but related note, I've just published the meeting thread for this week's Office Hours, which will focus on migrating from maker to professional development platforms and practices, notably for those who started on Arduino: https://discord.com/channels/1130679493799977062/1210162122332442645

Once Arduino started introducing Arm-based devices, ST may have been the closest commercial-grade solution.

You'd think that 8- and 16-bit platforms would be obsolete by now. Never ceases to amaze me how much runway they have despite all of these super cheap 32-bit options coming to market

onky•2/22/24, 12:07 PM

Exact same though I had 3 years back, but I have seen some niche industries in India they still use 8 bit MCUs. Some people still wants to continue with even 8051 (family).

kristof-at-embeetle•2/22/24, 12:39 PM

Hi @Petr Dvořák ,
I didn't know about the '?''?' wildcard option for designators in KiCAD. Thank you for pointing that out!
This will already help me for 90% of the cases I struggle with. In my next design, I will for sure use this wildcard to avoid non-matching designator numbers.

However, the other 10% of cases is when a design is "ready" but I forgot to add a component here or there. Last minute changes - you know... I think I can still use my script in those particular circumstances. So the effort is not in vain

Thanks again for pointing out the wildcard option. I learned again something new today.

Hey @MCU, MPU & Kits fans. Just a reminder on tomorrow's Office Hours meetup, which will feature a discussion on transitioning from Maker platforms like Arduino to professional development tools/solutions.

I actually think we'll hear about a lot of developers who migrated in the other direction. In fact at CES I met with my friend Marcellino Gemelli of Bosch Sensortec who said they've gone all in on the Arduino Pro line.

Hi @accur4te at that time I used python2.7 which used to come by default in older raspbian os. Now in 2024, if you're trying run Python code it will throw an error. As per new changes Raspberry Pi OS uses python3 by default. Apart from this don't forget to install paho-mqttpaho-mqtt library. Share more details about what kind of error show-up on RPi terminal
