I agree what what has been said for the MSP430's. I've mentioned them on this group before. I've been using them for battery operated equipment at work and plan on using a launchpad on my next project (when I find time for that). They are great chips but don't seem to get much love on the hobby

I think that is a wonderful idea. I have thought about doing this in the past but do not have enough knowledge to design it. I would be very interested. On Friday, October 7, 2016 at 1:02:36 PM UTC-6, Laurence Wilkins wrote: > > Over almost the last ten years, I have been designing, producing

I have been selling a nixie clock kit on eBay, for some time. The board that mounts the actual nixie tubes must be hand built separately, and its not part of the kit. No such board has been made, due to the large variety of nixie tubes available. So as not to stock bunch of boards, I'm

I'll add my 2 cents to what I want in a meter. A true RMS meter, that goes into the RF range. Linear Technologies use to make a chip that helped do that: http://www.linear.com/product/LT1088 Unfortunately, its been discontinued, but the concept still applies. How you implement the greater

[neonixie-l] Anyone got a good source for pick, packing (and maybe shipping) kits?

2016-10-10 Thread Ian Sparkes
Hi All, I've had a search around, but I haven't found anything so far. Does anyone have a good reliable source for picking and packing kits? I've been doing this by hand myself, but I'm spending so much time putting kits together that I don't have any time to do product development (which is

Interesting. So basically just the PCB data - no schematic and no component data - not enough to assemble a board... -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group. To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an email

Nick, These are the files that appear in the "output files" section of an Altium project dir. Gerbers, drill apertures, etc. This is what I'd call "open object" hardware data, rather than "open source". On 10/9/2016 11:47 PM, Nick wrote: Hi - can anyone who is familiar with Altium help

Hi - can anyone who is familiar with Altium help me with what these extensions are (apart from the usual Gerber stuff). Are the schematics there? Altium's web site is as clear as mud to me! Ta Nick -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l"
