Prototyping

From https://xkcd.com/1969/ I have seen this too often when US web sites do not allow people from EU to view their sites. →

It is pretty easy to do soldering ….Apply some flux, Heat the surface and apply solder .But when it comes to soldering SMD components it requires a little bit of skill and some tools and accessories. Industries use re-flow ovens with temperature profile Control to mass produce circuit boards. If you don’t have re-flow oven, →

https://spectrum.ieee.org/geek-life/hands-on/with-the-dead-bug-method-hobbyists-can-break-through-the-highfrequency-barrier PCBs are essential in mass-produced products. They assure almost perfectly repeatable circuits. And PCBs with a good ground plane are essential for high-frequency circuits. But rapid prototyping with PCBs has drawbacks compared with the speed and ease of building a circuit on a breadboard. This article presents one practical alternative to PCB for high-frequency →

I wanted to have a protective case for Arduino. I got this cheap (less than $2) Transparent Acrylic Shell Box For Arduino UNO R3 Module Board. Everything was packages to this small plastic bag. After installing eight screws and protective films from the plastic parts, everything was ready. I must admit that it takes some →

https://www.hackster.io/delmans/ucameracube-c64263 Need for a custom camera module. Check out this intetesting looking project. uCameraCube is a parametric camera module build using OpenSCAD uCube library. It is build with Raspberry Pi and Raspberry Pi camera and comes in three versions, which vary in the type of optics used. Thin Lens version M12 Lens version T-Mount version →

https://predictabledesigns.com/faq-should-i-create-a-proof-of-concept-poc-prototype-for-my-new-product/ As the name implies, the purpose of a proof-of-concept (POC) prototype is to prove your product concept. A POC answers if a product is feasible. In most cases a POC prototype is only used internally to determine the practicality of a new product. Customers will rarely see a POC prototype. So do you need →

I needed some connectors for quick electrical circuits prototyping. I saw this 20Pcs CH2 Quick Wire Connector Terminal Block Spring Connector pack at very low price of €1.37. So I ordered them to see if they are any good for nay use. At least they should be OK for low voltage low current circuits if →

Here is rebuild of simple oscilloscope art circuit using point-to-point construction on terminal strip: In is the circuit in use. Much more convient than loose parts on table. →

Dead bug prototyping “Dead bug style” circuit wiring is the cute name for soldering together components without a printed circuit board. The “dead bug” is the integrated circuit flipped upside down with its “legs” sticking up. The chips can be glued to almost any surface, but most often the surface material is circuit board with →

Solderless breadboards are one of the most fundamental pieces when learning how to build circuits and prototyping simple circuits. A breadboard is a construction base for prototyping of electronics. Breadboard are the ideal way to check out small bits of circuitry that you’re not sure about. Originally it was literally a bread board, a polished →
