linker3000,

Replacing the linear elements with switchers means more noise in the power lines. How much more, and whether it’s noticeable or tolerable will be down to you.

linker3000,

After 9 days, the upvotes and downvotes are tied so nothing changes for now, but we can revisit later.

Personally, I’d prefer organic growth rather than reposting stuff from Reddit.

Spread the word about the sub!

linker3000,

Interesting comments all round. Let’s run with the discussion for a week to allow infrequent visitors a chance to comment and then see if there’s a strong trend towards a specific opinion.

I need a new bench power supply

Hello, I did manage to kill my cheap-ish bench supply causing it to randomly output up to like 300% the set voltage when under load which did already kill one board. Probably I didn’t actively kill it but the chinesium did its job 🤷🏻‍♂️. It was a single output supply, when needed I hooked up additional buck- or...

linker3000,

Sorry - questions go in Askelectronics - sidebar shoulda told ya.

linker3000,

I’m plesantly surprised at the number of voters. I went with this format, instead of what you suggest or a third party voting site, thinking there would only be a handful of replies!

The call for designs was open for weeks. This is what came in.

Looking for a Linux/macOS-compatible EPROM programmer

As the title says, I’m looking for a Linux/macOS-compatible EPROM programmer. I’d like to be able to program parallel (E)EPROMs in the 27xxx range. The newer XGecu programmers seem to not be compatible with Linux/macOS, and the selection of TL866(II) clones is too overwhelming for me to be able to choose one....

Dunno if these guides for setting up the software under Wine will help - I’ll have to try it sometime.

SolderSnoo has gone and there’s a placeholder until we get a new icon.

linker3000, (edited )

Thanks all. I’ll leave it a week and then gather the submissions for a poll.

PLEASE ADD YOUR ICON DESIGNS TO THIS POST, INCLUDING ONES YOU HAVE POSTED IN OTHER PLACES.

linker3000, (edited )

Apologies - things got a bit delayed. I’m now talking to Davide about a poll for a new icon.

linker3000,

You’ll need to speak to electrical folks. We’re electronic engineers - quite different.

linker3000,

He’s still around but doesn’t come here much.

linker3000,

Yeah, it’s initially to flag the relationship between here and there. I agree it has to go and I have already mentioned this to Davide.

linker3000,

Hi, just FYI, a better place for questions is AskElectronics. This is a good place to showcase your finished project. Hope it goes well.

linker3000,

Well, I've closed the windows, turned off the lights and locked the door over at r/askelectronics (sub is now private). Let's see how this unfolds...
