  Bet your compiler isnt running on that hardware either ;-)

  2 kilobytes?

  source

  • Treczoks@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago

    Yes. 2 kilobytes. Coincidentally, this is as big as the displays internal buffer, so I cannot even keep a shadow copy of it in my RAM for the GUI.

      Thanks for clarification.

      I’ve never seen backbuffer called shadow copy.

        And I have never heard it called “backbuffer”, so we are even.

  Come on, man, AVR chips aren’t SoCs except in the technical sense.

    No AVR, it’s a small LPC from NXP. Chosen for the price, of course, but I have to somehow squeeze the software in it. At this point, even 8k would make me happy…

      NXP, fancy. I expected ST, AVR, nRF, WCH or some chinese cheaptroller.

    Man, microcontrollers are namegivers of SoC.
