Schematic: "2022 - We've updated the circuit design to use widely-available part AB1234DL rather than the impossible-to-find one the original design used!"

<search Newark/RS/Element14>

Website 2025: "AB1234DL: obsolete, not available to order"

Sigh.

One last socket creation for now:
#mbt3d #3D #b3d #blender #modelling #blender3d #hardsurface #mastoart #component #skt2me

A little component doodle to start the day:
#mbt3d #3d #b3d #blender #modelling #blender3d #hardsurface #mastoart #component #skt2me

I thought it might be fun to create some original random sockets:
<edit>: I will post updates and variatons in here, added a TAG #skt2me

Step 1: Take a previously single-div drawing

Step 2: Copy the code into a custom toggle switch

Step 3: ???

Step 4: Profit

Just a brief #factoid to perhaps save other #electronics #hobbyists some time.

#BigClive frequently uses a particular type of crimp-contact-and-housing as a universal socket for LEDs and other leaded components. Not just any such connector will do; various #JST, "#Dupont", and others won't work, because they only grasp pins of one particular size and/or shape. If the lead is too big, it won't go in, and if it's too small, it won't stay in.

If you want to use these connectors - and note you can get the housings with more than 2 contacts, so you can use them for transistors or weirder things too - the magic search term is "KF2510".

The reason these work as universal sockets for leaded components is because the contact is a spring that pushes from only one side of the housing, pressing the inserted contact or lead against the far side of the housing, and therefore provides a friction fit for any size lead (within reason). Most crimp connectors instead have particular shapes for their contacts and will only "grab" something the right size and shape.

TIL that the name “Component,” of web platform & front-end framework fame, comes from the Gang of Four’s Composite Design Pattern, in which objects made of other objects can be interacted with as though they were a singular object of that type. That shared interface is called a Component, and is implemented by both the Composites and the Leaf nodes.

Modern #css for Dynamic #component based Architecture https://moderncss.dev/modern-css-for-dynamic-component-based-architecture/

So it's been awhile since I posted and one of the big things that had happened since then has been I was able to go fully remote at work. This has allowed my wife and I to leave #RI and live in a more affordable area, being #upstateNY.

It's been a great change. A lot of places are within walking distance and there seems to be a better sense of community as well. My wife is planning to get involved in the weekly local farmer's market to sell her art (and maybe her delicious hot oil or pickled jalapenos and onions? )

We also have more room now and I've been able to split our gaming consoles between the living room and bedroom. Still a WIP, but I'm pleased that I'm able to have most of the consoles ready to go. Just need a #component switch, another #HDMI switch, and a bigger #AV switch.

The living room has the more modern consoles, with everything connected via HDMI, with the exception of the #Wii and #PS2, which precede HDMI output, of course. With those, I use component connections, which look pretty good on our #HDTV.

The bedroom has the older consoles, with most using #composite connections, which usually don't look great, but on the little HD TV I got for retro gaming, looks just fine. I use #SVideo with any of the consoles that have it available, with the #Atari7800 and toploader #NES using #RF (why that was the only option on the NES, I have no idea...well, maybe. Probably cost). The #Dreamcast is a special case. The system works with #VGA, which this TV supports. Along with some cheap wired PC speakers, looks and sounds great. The shelf is a temporary set up, until we get a bigger one (and bigger TV).
