Arduino Pro Trinket – bubble display

With 4 of HP QDSP-6064 bubble displays in a drawer I felt ready to do something with them and the “Clocks for Social Good” – call on hackaday.com finally got me going

3 Inch Tall 7-segment Clock

lcd_clock_final_build11-1

Kevin Rye decided to build a 15 inch long digital clock after acquiring these 3 inch 7-segment displays.  He documented the project from start to finish:

I picked up these sweet LUMEX S101D22TR 7-Segment LCDs the other day.

The PCBs for the hours, minutes, and seconds display modules are identical. They’ll just be wired differently.

Creating A PCB In Everything: Eagle DRC and Gerber Files — Hackaday

For the next post in the Creating A PCB series, we’re going to continue our explorations of Eagle. In Part 1, I went over how to create a part from scratch in Eagle. In Part 2, we used this part to create the small example board from the Introduction. This time around I’ll be going over Design […]

Creating A PCB In Everything: Eagle, Part 2 — Hackaday

In the last (and first) post in this series, we took a look at Eagle. Specifically, we learned how to create a custom part in Eagle. Our goal isn’t just to make our own parts in Eagle, we want to make schematics, boards, and eventually solder a few PCBs. The board we’ll be making, like…

Making A PCB in Everything: Eagle, Part 1 — Hackaday

For the first in a series of posts describing how to make a PCB, we’re going with Eagle. Eagle CAD has been around since the days of DOS, and has received numerous updates over the years. Until KiCad started getting good a few years ago, Eagle CAD was the de facto standard PCB design software…

RPUadpt Arduino shield

14226^3_OnCloneOptionalSMPS.jpg

Shield for Remote MCU Node on RPU Bus

RPUadpt is a shield for multi-drop serial communication of MCU boards (Irrigate7, PPUno, PuseDAQ). Serial lines are differential pairs. It has Full Duplex RS422 (RX/TX) and out of band Half Duplex RS485 bus manager that may (TBD) help with serial bootloaders (optiboot and xboot) in a multi-drop system.
