For that reason it makes sense to combine all three in the final project: the tortured furby modular synth module - moreover because I take the subject(s) very serious in a very non-serious manner."

I just found an interesting genre of weird but potentially useful chip: System support PMICs for large SoCs such as BD71805 (2$, i.MX SoCs), RK809 (2$, Rockchip SoCs) or WL2868 (50ct, Omnivison SoCs). These chips provide between 7 and around a dozen DC/DC or LDO channels with digitally configurable voltage(!) through I2C, battery charge measurement, and configurable power-on sequencing. Some even have fun bonus features such as an RTC, or a built-in audio codec(?!). #electronics #chipofthemonth

I hooked up the accelerometer, so Doom is now "playable" entirely on the brick.The capacitive touch wasn't tuned very well, so it's a bit shooty.
