Map of content for the documentation tree. One line per doc — read this to locate a doc rather than preloading the folder.
Three boards, three build paths. Pick the one that matches what you have:
-
build/xiao.md— the DIY build. Hand-wired XIAO nRF52840: parts, identifying the cable conductors, the 5 V diode-OR, pull-ups, pre-power checks, UF2 flashing, first boot, enclosure -
build/dk.md— the bench build. nRF52840-DK on a breadboard; no soldering, external 5 V, SWD flashing and RTT. What behaves differently on this board -
build/pulsar-v1.md— installing an assembled Pulsar v1 in a controller, photo by photo. Markdown copy of the site's install guide -
pulsar_v1_manual.md— owner's manual for an assembled Pulsar v1: connecting a controller, buttons, LEDs, charging, updating. Start here for a shipped unit -
users_guide.md— the same ground across all three boards (v1, DIY XIAO, DK); the reference the manual defers to -
flash-commands.md— UF2, DFU, and probe recipes; build variants -
bill_of_materials.md— parts for the XIAO and Pulsar v1 builds -
pin_mapping.md— pin assignments across all three boards
maple_bus_protocol.md— the Maple Bus reference, consolidated from three sources; the authoritative copylearnings.md— lessons from 2 Mbps bit-banged GPIO on the nRF52840, written to generalize beyond this projectinput_quality_testing.md— measuring packet loss and input latency; the issue #5 investigation end to endtest_plan.md— the full adapter test plan
battery_optimization.md— power strategy on a single-cell LiPo; measured active runtimes, calculated standby
images/, wiring/, and signal_references/ — photos, wiring diagrams, and captured
Maple Bus traces referenced by the docs above.
