carnation — the device constructor

Pre-production

carnation is our second product line: a configurable device platform built around one ESP32-C6 board whose hardware personality — light channels, fans, encoder controls, USB-PD bus voltage — is composed rather than hard-coded, then flashed and recorded per unit. The device constructor lives inside our ERP, so every board carries a serial number with its full history: what firmware was written to it, by whom, when, and the verbatim report of every functional test it passed.

It is how we intend to build hardware at small volume without losing traceability: a new variant is a new configuration and a bill of materials, not a new production process. The same discipline backs the custom electronics work we take on outside our own lines — schematic and PCB design, firmware, bring-up and small-batch manufacturing with per-unit traceability.

Drawing title carnation 1411 controller
Revision Pre-production
Sheet 1 of 1
The carnation 1411 controller board, drawn from the top: an ESP32-C6 module, a USB-C receptacle, the CH224K power-delivery chip, a rotary encoder knob and three screw terminals, numbered as in the parts list.

Facts

Power
USB-C Power Delivery. The firmware selects 5, 12 or 15 V to match the fitted light.
Outputs
3 output terminals, each set at the factory to PWM (single colour or RGB) or WS281x pixel data.
Protection
Input voltage and load current are measured continuously. Output limited to 3 A in firmware.
Controls
A rotary knob, the built-in web page, and MQTT to Home Assistant. Several boards on one network work together.
Firmware
Over-the-air updates. One firmware image covers every configuration, which is written at the factory and traced per unit.

Research

libtracer

Open source, Apache-2.0

An open research track, deliberately kept off the product critical path: libtracer is a zero-copy, decentralized, graph-based pub/sub protocol designed to carry one wire format from a 16 KB microcontroller to a GPU, across vendors and transports. Source and specification are public at github.com/avatarsd-llc/libtracer.
