This week as usual I went into the lab to facilitate testing the hardware, specifically programming the board to test the pre-amp signal out ability.
I have successfully setup the I2C control protocol with the ADC and can read data from our input channels. I will need more testing to determine the correctness and quality of the sampled digital signal.
For the Bluetooth module, the UART-to-USB converter we ordered a week ago arrived without noticing my apartment so I only got the package after I asked Quinn for tracking information this week. I later discovered that the module is smashed in transit and could not be used, so I had to order another one which is running late in delivery, and I have to wait until Monday to get it and test. There are a lot of uncontrollable forces in this but there are my faults too. I am learning the lesson and will be very proactive in tracking and examining the delivery every step along the way (sorry Quinn for bugging you :)) for any order from now on.
Next week I will finish the audio in and out ability or else we are in danger. I will keep everyone posted.
