@dronebot-workshop, @cadcamman I have both the V1 and V2 Pixies. They are neat for the time they were made and the size, but yes they are very limit...
@m4krd4d I usually add a fuse for just over my total current needs. Say I have a PSU that will deliver 20amps. I use only 4amps in total, so I will ...
@bwchester It's been a long while since I looked at this :) There is a ratio you used to calculate the AC into the rectifier and the DC out. 1.4 or...
@bwchester, The bridge rectifier is causing a 2v or so drop from the internal diodes. Usually, you would want to use a film capacitor rated @ ...
I have been trying to get myself to use it for my 3d print designs, but get lazy and do it in Tinkercad. I have used it some for my CNC machine, as i...
@bill21 Since you are in the UK, I would try
You can :) The Naan boards are my play on the "bread" in breadboard. I just called them Naan boards, because I love Naan, though can not partake o...
Hi Ganesan, Here is a great page I found and remembered :) It gives some details on the motors, their ratings, and driving them. I will also w...
Hello Ganesan, Welcome! I hope you enjoy the place as much as we do! Scott
Fit in the 2.54mm female headers? For that, I some times use male 2.54mm break-offs and do the same HS job. Some of the ones pictured are that way.
The new Naan boards are in! The latest to the Naan proto line: Both of these are single-sided and can be panelized at a small extra cost. I go...
hi @starnovice, I typically just solder the pins on the wire and heat-shrink them, I have a crimper that's ok and works, but I find it fiddly to us...
@anthonydkay You will need to add a TTL contact activate in the ladder (if you have a TTL IO card) or tack another relay in parallel with the motor ...
Hi @anthonydkay, Can you elaborate on the 12v input signal you will have? What type of components is it? Typically Arduinos want 3-5v input on the...
@ruplicator Yes, you will want to either power that regulator off or pull the esp out of the circuit. It can be fiddly during development :(
