Some of the tiniest soldering I've ever done

Thu, 08/28/2008 - 06:46 — breedx

In the last week or two I've been doing some of the smallest soldering I've ever attempted.

It all started with the KOLPXNTY board I've been designing and prototyping. I won't dive into detail here (maybe later!?), but the basic goal is to trigger a fairly large number of circuit bent devices from a networked computer.

I'll put up a documentation page if/when it's more relevant.

That would explain a lot wouldnt it?

I am regularly sending ordinary people to look a the application sections of the datasheets for several electronic parts if they want to know how a part should be used. As I was laying out the motor boards for the weekends workshop I came across the following in the datasheet for the L239(not d) clone that Texas Intruments puts out.

Can you tell where the chip begins and the diagram ends? Can you tell that the diodes are (not really) included in the chip or would you add them to your parts count.?

This is a first take on using the Benito board to create an open source USB to Serial converter.

Current interests

Blue tooth to classic handsets.

I'd like to take a classic Rotory dial phone make it dial and call and ring the old ringer make real phone calls. a cell phone communicator on a classic phone

Analog synths (homebrew portables mainly)

Old classic electronics gadgets working with newer things

Making musical instruments.

I'm interested in helping drive the technicals into the steam punk movement. Real steam, real workings inside the look. I tinker the magic kinda idea.

SPI4 is a MyUSB based firmware for the at90usb family of processors.

Missing Links and Moments of Truth.

Missing Links.

One of the joys of the Arduino Cult Induction Sessions is that mistakes and omissions are generally caught on the spot and there is no lag between the steps we forgot to include an the instructions and the person who's board isn't working.
