Exploring the Tang Nano Series: Features and Applications

Welcome, Matthias Balwierz / Bitluni / Luni!

• Midi pedals
• Old projects
• LED walls
• Dunning kruger
• Sonar scanner 
• Aliens
• Romulus
• Lifelong learning
• Beamforming
• Previously had worked on something similar in the medical field but didn’t realize it was the same tech
• ESP32
• Gowin FPGA
• Video generation / crt control
• R2R 
• cnlohr videos for making PCBs
• ESP32 VGA
• PCB mill 
• Failing
• Tiny Tapeout bringing down costs like PCBs
• Jeri doing “home etching” (making silicon at home)
• Building the meme project  on TT02
• GIF construction set
• Almost like a ROM on board, on each clock it exposes the next byte on paralell output
• Luni hasn’t submitted to each tiny tapeout but is building a new project
• Browser assembler that runs in the handheld gaming: “Luni-Asm”
• cpu + gpu to get vector output
• Bitluni live youtube / Bitluni – twitch happens Weds at 8 pm CEST
• Community helps
• Writing memory controllers
• Bus master because internal SRAM is so expensive
• Expense of flash/ram is in IP
• People running test structures the tiles
• FPGAs, Gowin – 9K standard up to 25k
• Gabriel / Lushay Labs – Tutorials for FPGAs
• HDMI connector
• Some IP blocks from Gowin
• Yosys support
• VS code tools and simulation
• Gowin FPGA designer
• Learning clock domains
• Moving back to art
• Demoscene came from the cracker scene
• Different categories / limits
• 4K category only allows 4K of memory for images and sound (generated)
• White demo competitions
