Electronics Project Center - Part 1

[kd5gua]

I have worked as electronics engineering tech in some pretty nice labs and I like your concepts.

@kd5gua Thanks

pls my fnd cant you send me your flochart for the ram cheq system and some details about tat

[robprebil]

Very nice - gotta build me one like that. Would cut prototyping time down quite a bit I would think.

[THEtechknight]

the link on the display is now dead :(

[tangnatalaga]

Why didn't you explain it along with an schematic that way it would be easier to understand.

[CassetteMaster]

That is awesome! You're real good with electronics!

[Trusten1984]

I could use lot of expirence !!!

[patrickikis]

I like your counter circuit. I had to make one to interface with my controller board, but I only have a 2-inch by 1.5-inch PCB. I don't have the patience to wait for the proper materials if I can improvise. I had to make every solder connection from the bottom of the PCB using wire-wrap wire. I literally had to use hot glue to make sure no connections broke, as the wire wrap wire is easily broken. Long story short, smallest TTL 2-decimal counter ever! Great video!

[magidavid]

Cool, got a video about it?

Radio Shack is a good source for PC boards at a reasonable price. Though, some of the nicer ones they stopped making years ago. Now, only the most popular ones are manufactured.

Wire-wrapping has its advantages, but if you have a lot of connections, tracking down a problem can be a nightmare! :D

[patrickikis]

Yeah, I actually much prefer wire-wrapping, but in this case, it was a pain in the ass because I wasn't actually wire wrapping, but rather using wire-wrap wire to make solder connections from the bottom of the PCB, which was very small. It was so brittle that I used hot glue on the solder side of the PCB, and made any necessary changes to errors by making new connections from the top.

you can make it a lot lot smaller with just a 555 for a clock and a 4026 decade and decoder to count them

[Scorinitron]

Dude do you know anything about Radio shack's

300 in One Electronic Project Lab I have one and well I am trying to Complete a project so I can inpress my dad he is an electronic enginnier also your home made project lab is very similer to the 300 in one just bigger

[magidavid]

Sorry, I'm not familiar with that product.

What's the circuit you are working on building?

[nockturnal13]

what book or books do you reccomend to start out with ? im as beginner as a beginner can get but fascinated about this stuff

[magidavid]

Get a book on the basics and start reading. You can pick up almost everything you need from Radio Shack to start experimenting. Or, if you have the option, take a class.

[davzik0]

Where do you recommend i start to lean electronics? Really would love to understand all the stuff you say lol

[magidavid]

Get a beginner's book and start there. Just about everything you need in the beginning can be found at Radio Shack.

[waynedavisband]

great work I have been trying to learn electronics on my own for some time now and have finaly started using 555 timer circuits and npn and pnp transistors as well as other basic circuit components thanks for the vids keep em coming

[magidavid]

You're welcome, I just hope this was useful to you. :)
