It's over!

2008-05-07T14:40:00.003+08:00

Today, 7th May, marks the grand end of our grave digging adventure.
I'm happy to say that all members survived the ordeal and no animal testing was resorted for the digging of our hideous grave.

Jokes aside, I'm really relieved that our NGDC activity has come to an end. I wish all members a happy holiday and all the best for their future adventures.

Counting Down......

Hey.. i think it's time to do some cooperation work..

For me, I have one week to do every segment of the project.. which is erm.. quite impossible..

Do everyone still have spare s/u?

2008-03-04T00:14:00.004+08:00

Although we are confident that somehow by working together we can dig a big enough grave.. it will be good to have a backup plan for the ease of mind..

if (EE3208 ==F or EE3208 system not working)
s/u the module to reduce damage to CAP;

Updated grave digging schedule

updated grave digging schedule based on what is said in class and my own editing..

Vista Woes

2008-02-14T21:43:00.003+08:00

For those who are running Vista and cannot run IAR or WinPIC for ur EE2001...

There's a cure now! =)

Go install IAR as instructed on http://www.ece.nus.edu.sg/ee2001/html/Common/IAR-EmbeddedWorkbench-v2.2_userguide.htm

Then, ask your friend(s) who are running Windows XP to find MSVCP50.dll from their system and put it at C:\Program Files\IAR Systems\ew23\ ...and tada~ you can run IAR le

as for WinPIC, go to http://www.winpic800.com/index.php?lang=en to download the new version of WinPIC800 ver.3.62 that supports Vista ...
(problem with finding the driver for this new WinPIC800....if anyone manage to find it please drop a comment here)

...with these 2 fellas, you dont have to go down to the lab day in day out le :)

Digital Talking Cash Register

In this project, a cash register that is capable of synthesizing in voice what is keyed into the system is to be designed. It will consist of a six 7-segment LED display, a voice synthesizer, and a keypad. The keypad will allow the casher to key in items into the system (item type, quantity and price). The LED display will show the item, quantity or price as they are keyed in. The voice synthesizer will at the same time speak the same, as the items are displayed.

.... get ready to.... ka-ching~

The diggers' lunchbox!!

2008-01-24T16:57:00.000+08:00

The EE3208 diggers received their lunch boxes this afternoon and this shall be the beginning of more digging action.

We are supposed to dig our graves, using the above tools, according to the following quite horrible looking schematic:

Happy digging, my fellow diggers..

Hows the lecture so far?

2008-01-23T17:33:00.000+08:00

I got quite a few question mark on my mind.. and feeling abit uncomfortable.. partly b'cos of some other stuff..
But what do you guys think of the lecture so far?
Gp: i think we might need to bring the time slot issue up again..

We'll be blessed~

“May God give you...For every storm a rainbow, for every tear a smile, for every care a promise and a blessing in each trial. For every problem life sends, a faithful friend to share, for every sigh a sweet song and an answer for each prayer.”

“When we lose one blessing, another is often most unexpectedly given in its place” - C.S.Lewis

We'll be blessed :) *amen*

The diggers' toolbox

2008-01-19T11:34:00.000+08:00

The issuing of the toolbox thus marks the start of our grave digging activities.

We (those taking EE3208 also) might be receiving our 2nd toolbox in the 3rd week. How sweet!

In it contains the necessary tools for us to dig our graves efficiently.

Dig dig, my fellow diggers.

Of the grave diggers

NGDC is Nus Grave Diggers Club, set up by those taking EE2001 with EE3208 as most thinks we are crazy taking these 2 modules tgt (as they are both rather time-consuming design project modules) and thus digging our graves in the process..

The founder of the club decided to set up a blog to honor the birth of such an unique organisation.

We have thus pledge ourselves to build every grave in different shapes and sizes with pride through thick and thin and not to chao geng.

Ready to dig, fellow diggers!
