Hackers to Hackers Conference

The Great Scott Gadgets source identifies the badge as celebrating the 10th H2HC in Brazil.

Why It Mattered

It adds a strong Brazil root record where a hacker-conference badge is openly documented as an embedded development board, not just a decorative PCB.

Hardware

Great Scott Gadgets documents the badge as an LPC1343 ARM Cortex-M3 board with USB mass-storage bootloader behavior, ISP and reset-button bootloader entry, TXLED verification, USB serial example firmware, and a TARGET header intended for future GoodFET-compatible use.

Software & Apps

The badge shipped with only the LPC1343 ROM bootloader installed. The source page documents ARM GCC setup, LPC1343 reference code, simpleflash on Linux, sample firmware compilation, USB serial interaction, and open KiCad design files in the GoodFET repository.

Lore

The badge celebrated the 10th anniversary of H2HC in Brazil and aimed to make embedded ARM development approachable for conference attendees.

Lifecycle

Add-ons & Upgrades

LPC1343 ROM bootloader workflow

Attendees could use the LPC1343 USB mass-storage bootloader by replacing firmware.bin, or invoke it through the ISP and reset-button sequence.

GoodFET-compatible target header

The badge was based on the experimental gflpc1343 GreatFET design and exposed a TARGET header intended for future GoodFET-compatible use.

Operational history

Issues & Camp Impact

linux bootloader caveat note

The H2HC 2013 bootloader was probably tested only on Windows; Linux users were told to use simpleflash instead of overwriting firmware.bin directly.

This preserves a real development caveat for people trying to reproduce the badge workflow.

missing rights-cleared image note

No local H2HC 2013 badge image has been added because a rights-cleared original photo and attribution have not been verified.

The entry stays source-linked and image-free rather than copying project-page media without a recorded image license.
