Open Source Perl Hardware Drivers

The Linux GPIB Package is a support package for GPIB (IEEE 488.2) hardware. The package contains a development environment consisting of a GPIB library written in C, kernel driver modules, and bindings for several other languages.

UrJTAG aims to create an enhanced, modern tool for communicating over JTAG with flash chips, CPUs, and many more. It is a descendant of the popular openwince JTAG tools with a lot of additional features and enhancements.

Please note that OWFS source code, and all Issue/Tickets/merge requests have now been moved to https://github.com/owfs/owfs/. Developer mailing lists will still be kept at Sourceforge. ---- OWFS -- 1-Wire file system. Use the Dallas 1-Wire and iButton chips with standard filesystem commands. Create temperature loggers. Monitor everything. OWHTTPD -- same system, only used as a light weight web server. OWFS is also ported to embedded routers, Mac OSX and Windows. Basically you can use these inexpensive little sensors and other chips with very simple wiring to sense and control the physical environment. The interface is very flexible -- everything from a web browser, to read and writing directly to the chip's "file" to integrating with your programs -- even over the internet. There is a growing number of 1-wire sensors: temperature, voltage, humidity, light, ultraviolet, pressure, thermisters, thermocouples, programmable microcontrollers, relays, lights, LCD panels, etc

Generic SCSI target subsystem for Linux SCST allows creation of sophisticated storage devices. It includes generic SCSI target core with SCSI target drivers and backend handlers. There are target drivers for iSCSI, Fibre Channel, SRP, SAS, FCoE, etc.

G15daemon provides support for the G15 keyboard. Multiple LCD clients are supported with a 'virtual' LCD buffer for applications or libraries, and all keys are usable. Users flip through connected screens with a press of a button.Linux, OS-X & Solaris

USBLib based driver for USB foam missile launcher toys. Currently two launchers are supported, but others can easily be added.

The ADQ project aims to provide device drivers and a terminal based data acquisition and control program for the Meilhaus ME26 data acquisition board and the Meilhaus ME53 relay boards. The data can also be displayed in real time with a Web page.

A Perl script that interfaces with the Devantech USB to I2C interface adapter. This script allows a user to read and write as a master to the i2c bus as well as set or get the value of the io pins.

4.4BSD-based UNIX-like operating system for CNC / machine control applications. Using low-cost hardware, FabBSD can be used to control a wide array of CNC milling machines, lathes, routers, process-control and automation equipment.

Linux based client software and a set of AVR microcontroller devices that support the SportIdent electronic punching system used in orienteering. Clients send card data to a PHP/SQL web application, that serves as full featured event software.

This software allows you to read HP4145 Semiconductor Parameter Analyzer files on a Linux PC.

This project is an attempt to provide the Linux community with kernel drivers for two hugely popular DVD playback cards namely DXR3 from Creative Labs and Hollywood Plus from Sigma Designs.

A daemon to communicate the mx240a (IMfree) using libusb.

A hardware configuration and tweaking program for Dell laptops running Ubuntu Linux. This program was written for anyone who desires to automate the configuration of incorrectly configured or unsupported hardware.

RSMeter is a package for interfacing to the RadioShack/Metex 22-168A series of serial-connected multimeters. Currently, it includes an ncurses interface and a script to graph readings. Support for other meters is planned in the future, with an API.

This is a Perl application enabling downloading and configuring the Voltcraft DL-141TH temperature and humidity sensors device. Targeted at Operating Systems supporting libusb. This application exists thanks to reverse engineering.

The legacy telephony interface to the open source Asterisk PBX is the Digium Asterisk Hardware Device Interface (Dahdi). The legacy interfaces can be FXS, FXO, ISDN BRI, T1 over USB, T1, E1 ISDN PRI and TDMoE (Dynamic Dahdi) ports. This Webmin module aids in configuring the legacy hardware devices to Asterisk PBX. Webmin was chosen because Webmin is a mature web based GUI platform that concentrates on the hardware side of a server. Webmin allows controlled secure root access to the hardware. Other web based GUIs concentrate on the software side of configuring Asterisk and do not provide root access directly. For the latest information on installing the module in FreePBX go to the Wiki - How to Install page

This project is for the Device Drivers and user-space tools for the <a href= http://www.centurion-cd.com/product-dischub.html>Centurion DiscHub.</a>. The device is a 100 CD+-RW/DVD+-RW/DVD-RAM drive with a robotic 100 Disc changer.
