My inherited crystal box has quite a variety of odd and old ones. I must have a play with that big module which I assume is an ovened module.
#retro #electronics

A collection of different quarts crystals in varying odd packages; some are very old (big old black modules, one of which is labeleld CHANNEL 59, 25.9 MC), modern 4 pin oscillator, an ancient  brown/red one labelled 8006(?).667 CHANNEL 63, two very tall but modern silver canned crystals, one marked FT-200, another marked 100KHz, a couple of small modern cans, and at the bottom a big module which is marked 8000KHz Q01008 which I assume is an ovened module.

Well, fuck.
I guess my display bracket needs screws for the display driver panel to keep this from happening next time.

Tracked down the programmer and the TL866 adapter that I'll need to program the 27C322 with. Even found a few 27C322 EPROMs on the soldering workbench which means everything should be good to go for getting this custom cart back in good working order.

It's one thing to build something like this following a tutorial. It's a whole other thing to try to understand how it works. Time to dig into some data sheets and Arduino library code.

A Metro (Arduino) board connected by multiple colored wires to an LCD character display. The display reads "Hellorld!" Behind the circuit is an oscilloscope with a trace displaying some digital logic pulses.

Old boards are so awesome!

An old PCB. It’s single sided!

Trying to fix my friend's TV that won't turn on. Maybe it's that triac? It must be that triac, can't SEE anything else wrong here. 🤪 #electronics #repair

Picture of electronic components. A broken capacitor clearly visible, but post ironically says it must be the triac.

My dad made me a Vesa compatible holder for my oscilloscope and it turned out great! Just as imagined. Of course, it is a massive steel construction, we both would not trust a 3D printed construction with my dear Rigol.

This air quality sensor breakout board from Adafruit just measured the PM 2.5 AQI as 59 outside my front door (which isn't that great), but it matches exactly what AirNow.gov is currently reporting.
The AirNow.gov numbers are based on multiple sensors and modeling, so I really had no idea how close they would be.
Now I have to figure out a way to use the board that doesn't require taking my laptop outside.
