I received my Mini 7-Segment Clock PCBs. Iām pretty excited to put one together. I think itās going to look pretty cool, being so tiny. Iāve always liked 7-segment displays. With the popularity of LCDs, TFTs, and touch screens, etc, youād think these displays would be obsolete by now. If you keep an eye out […]

My E-Paper boards finally arrived. They look awesome. I totally nailed the cutouts for the e-paper display. Theyāre perfect. The ribbon connectors on the display fit nicely through the slots. They clip right into the breakout board, which is perfectly aligned over the holes for the 7-pin headerThey clip right into the breakout board, which

To reach a maximum mechanical stability, many Sonitron piezo components are now available even with a foam tape. Sonitron piezo components feature a high reliability, resistance to harsh conditions and also to vibrations. Despite these features, usually one of the weakest points (as for the vibration-resistance) is the joint of leads with a PCB. ThatĀ“s
