But there are reasons for my protracted absence. I was too busy preparing for grad school and finally landed in the University of California San Diego during [...]]]></description>

I got feedback from several people across the globe regarding the plugin and the most common complaint that came across was that the plugin could not enqueue folders recursively. Also, when some files [...]]]></description>

A robot is not only challenging from the point of view of an embedded system designed to perform a particular function, but it also has mechanical and structural facets to [...]]]></description>

But a few months ago, I enhanced that software to enable it to program even Dallas DS5000T microcontrollers.

		<description><![CDATA[Some time last year, I got myself  a few serial EEPROMs. As the name suggests, they are accessed serially using some serial protocol(usually SPI or I2C). Hence these serial  EEPROMs don&#8217;t have a parallel data/address bus that we normally associate with EEPROMs in general. Here is a photo of my SPI based EEPROM, a 25AA256 [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A few months ago, I got myself two DS5000T microcontrollers. DS5000T is a popular product from Maxim semiconductors. It is (yet) another microcontroller based on the 8051 core. However, it is much advanced than plain 8051s or even the very popular AT89S52 microcontroller.
A very special word of thanks to Maxim who made the free samples [...]]]></description>
