Feather and Wing

For the octo sculpture, I have secured a mini microprocessor in order to meet my specifications for the build size and footprint

This feather version is still based on the arduino 32 mega chipset so all ino code that I have written is compatible as well as audio libraries for the voice/speech patterns. I have recorded the 8 speech sequences and have had them cleaned up — noise reduction and post-production eq by 10f10t.

The capacitive touch sensor shield works however the mini version — chip on breakout board only — overheats and has been deemed defective. Free replacement part has been approved and is in transit but I cannot test housing until it arrives and I solder it to the mini-micro.

SPECS:

Measures 2.0″ x 0.9″ x 0.28″ (51mm x 23mm x 8mm) without headers soldered in
4.8 grams
ATmega32u4 @ 8MHz with 3.3V logic/power
3.3V regulator with 500mA peak current output
USB native support, comes with USB bootloader and serial port debugging
Hardware Serial, hardware I2C, hardware SPI support
8 x PWM pins
10 x analog inputs (one is used to measure the battery voltage)
Built in 100mA lipoly charger with charging status indicator LED
