I wish people who posted tutorials would try to execute them EXACTLY as written to make sure they work before releasing them into the wild. I wanted to do this because I WAS using a line level converter board and I wanted to simplify my project: It eliminates a board, a pile of wires, and a wall wart power supply! Like most tutorials, there are a few things that are missing. I am sending data from the Raspberry Pi to the Arduino via the USB cable. I just hacked away at this for the past few hours to get it working. For example we could control some motor or LCD on the Arduino from the Raspberry Pi. There you go, be creative and you will find there are so many things you can do. Now you should see the LED on the Arduino light up 3 times. On the Raspberry Pi Side, you need to type ser.write('3') In this example, Raspberry Pi will be sending back a single number, and the Arduino will turn on and off the LED on Pin 12 so many times. You can press Ctrl + C to stop (interrupt) the Python program. Messages ‘Hi’ should now start to appear every 2 seconds. You will need two hit enter twice after you type the second line. Now lets start a loop listening for messages from the Arduino. The second argument – 9600 is the baud rate and should match with what you set in the Arduino program. If a new name appears, then this is the name of your port. Now plug in your Arduio and run the command again. To find out the port name, we need to run this command in terminal without Arduino plugged in: ls /dev/tty* The first argument – /dev/ttyACM0 is the name for the USB interface used.
You will find this from the menu under Programming, you should use Python 2 not 3.
We will send ‘Hi’ from the Arduino to the Raspberry Pi every 2 seconds.
#ARDUINO USB HOST SHIELD MEGA AMAZON SERIAL#
First of all, make sure you have installed pySerial, which gives you the ability to read from and write to the serial port with Python Programming language. To demonstrate the mouse, rehsd wrote a simple drawing program that would have been a hit in 1978.To Demonstrate how this works, I will be doing two little projects, one for data going to Raspberry Pi from Arduino, the other one for the opposite.
#ARDUINO USB HOST SHIELD MEGA AMAZON CODE#
Code written in assembly runs on the 6502 and reads the mouse data after the interrupts. It first triggers interrupts on the VIA and then writes the mouse data to the VIA ports. The Arduino runs a sketch that polls the mouse data and then sends that data to the 6502 through the VIA (Versatile Interface Adapter). The mouse connects to the Arduino through a USB host shield, which lets the board read data coming from standard USB devices.
They settled on an Arduino Mega as an adapter. So rehsd had to find a way to get a USB mouse talking to his 6502 processor. Joysticks were common, but graphical user interfaces and the mice to support them were not. Computers back then didn’t support USB mice - the USB standard wouldn’t even exist until 1996. It operates like most computers from the late ’70s and early ’80s. This homebrew computer is a Ben Eater design, which rehsd modified and created a PCB to streamline. To enhance their DIY 6502 computer, rehsd used an Arduino to add USB mouse support.
Because the 6502 is so well documented, it is possible for today’s enthusiasts to use it in their own homebrew computers. Even the NES had a custom implementation of the 6502. It found a home in legendary computers like the Commodore 64, Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, and Apple II. The MOS Technology 6502 was one of the most popular processors of the 8-bit era.
