[neonixie-l] KiCad footprint for ZM1130

Hello, I am new to this group so please let me know if my request is inappropriate. I am designing my own Nixie clock and that will be driven by a Raspberry Pi 3. Until now I have tested some basic parts of what will become the entire thing and it all works fine, meaning that I can drive one

Thanks Paolo, Indeed, "Dieter's" database showed me that the SK-116 socket should work: http://www.tube-tester.com/sites/nixie/data/zm1130.htm ...now trying to find the footprint file. Keep you posted. Hatse On Tuesday, December 27, 2016 at 11:51:42 PM UTC+1, Paolo Cravero wrote: > > Hello. >

Re: [neonixie-l] Should i start making IN-1 sockets?

photos came through great, i think i have a crimping tool for those pins and could build them with pigtails. here is a link to the pins i was thinking of using as an alternative http://www.mouser.com/images/molex/lrg/1377large.jpg a socket with these would be a through hole soldered in socket,

I dont see an attached photo of your bushings just the PDF of the socket drawings. Ive been looking at materials and was curious how many you (and anyone else) would want to purchase -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "neonixie-l" group. To

Hello. Looks like the footprint was called sk116: have you tried looking for this code instead? Then you might search a library for an equivalent tube (as form factor). It worked with sk207 footprint for me. Paolo Il 27/Dic/2016 23:42, "Hatse Flats" ha scritto: > Hello,

[neonixie-l] Anode terminals on 5870

Hello. I am about to test and the do something with a bunch of 5870S tubes, both ITT and Siemens. >From the datasheet I see there are two anode terminals, but there is no indication of a reason. Were they made to simplify wiring? Or to make the anode more stable? Should they always be connected

Re: [neonixie-l] Anode terminals on 5870

Paolo, The two anode terminals are there for ease of manufacturing. They are connected together internally. You may use either one, depending on what is easier for your board layout. On 12/27/2016 3:27 AM, Paolo Cravero wrote: Hello. I am about to test and the do something with a bunch of

Hi folks, One more happy user here... Have the nwts connected to a Jeff Thomas GPSII and will be taking a tube clock in to work shortly... No GPS where I sit at work so this is a perfect solution for me. Many thanks Manuel! B -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the
