Adafruit's Limor "Ladyada" Fried and Phillip Torrone will host the we're poking at our 5.25" disk drive and we'd like to get it working with our Adafruit_Floppy code so we can read older diskettes. If there's one thing we believe in strongly here at Adafruit its that if you have an embedded interpreted language running on your ... whew! so, turns out it was an underspec'ed power supply. so now we know, 500mA is not enough for a now that we have successful flux reads, its time to get flexible! we've swapped our SAMD51 feather board out for an RP2040 ... we're going to back up a little in this part - we have MFM and index pulse data coming out of our chonky panasonic 3.5"
having converted MFM pulses to sectors, you may be surprised to know its only a couple lines of code to have a microcontroller ... jepler ended the week on a high note, getting the motor of an Apple ][ Let's make a circuit to read actual data bytes from a OK so part 1 we got our wiring worked out and found an index pulse. Part 2 is we started getting MFM data coming out. Now we're ...
