NTP 1.4 works!
It’s taken a while to get back to this point, but there we are. Verison 1.4 of the board finally works well enough it will be accepted by a real ntpd.

Heat
All electronics exists to convert electricity into (mostly) heat. It just happens to do something useful along the way. The progression on the design so far has been to consider digital issues first (make the circuit work at all), then … Continue reading
New boards have arrived!
The new revision of the NTP Server and a test build of the LUFA AVR Programmer boards have arrived. The service from Seeedstudio was pretty quick and excellent for pricing, although one of the boards had some drills not correctly … Continue reading
New boards on the way
I finally committed to a new set of boards for a couple of projects. NTP Server 1.4 and the LUFA-based AVR programmer both have been sent off to be manufactured, and assembly should take place in a few weeks time. I’ll separately post … Continue reading
Final revision no really!
I think the number of times I’ve said “this is really the final revision” is now too numerous to count, but honestly this time I think it’s fairly close to final. (That’s downgraded from yesterday’s remark to people that asked, … Continue reading

Just a brief update on the NTP Server project. The most recent revision of the board is starting to look good, and parts have been ordered, but not yet the PCB. What is being done at the moment is checking … Continue reading
NTP Update; XMEGA thoughts
Just a minor update about the NTP server project, the board has been reworked a fair bit and this has resulted in a much cleaner design. There’s some parts coming so I can better prove the changes, before I get … Continue reading
State of SVN
For anyone actually following the SVN tree for the NTP Server, should be aware I’ve embarked on source changes to see how well the XMEGA chip works. This means there’s a tag for the last version which “worked” on PCB … Continue reading
Design loops
As usually happens right after I get a new hardware build underway, and completed, I seem to find myself with the schematics and PCB layout open and with new ideas. This tends to happen after each build because I find … Continue reading
