Today I was working on a power converter where I am using my Espruino board to measure input and output voltage and current and also to generate some project specific control signals that make the power converter behave as I want it to.
I have my lab bench set up so that I control my instruments with Excel. The instruments are talking over GPIB and the setup allows me to quickly repeat a measurement I did months ago, with exactly the same test setup. So I can compare test results in a repeatable way. I can return to a design I did long time ago and repeat the tests and continue improving the circuit and compare performance.
The project I am working on right now requires a micro controller and I decide to try Espruino. This far, my experience has been quite positive and I am continuing this path. I decided to see if I could include my Espruino board into the Excel test setup. This turned out to be quite simple. If anyone is interested I can perhaps write a tutorial on how to do this.
