We've been having fun playing with the L293D driver chip. It's one of those things to see how much you can make it do by itself (like with any BEAM application!). Grant McKee has been experimenting with some simple additions to the chip to make it (unto itself) a suitable brain for a simple mini-sumo […]

Today we proudly present not ONE, but two products! Mind-blowing stuff... So impressive... Well, if someone didn't beat me to the The Northern Lights Bundle yesterday, we would've had three...

Solid State Relay SSR-10DD 10A/5-60VDC 3-32VDC $10.00 Traditional relays actually have physical little contacts that when powered by a little signal, bang together to pass much larger currents. They have little resistance, are generally reliable, but they are noisy and they don't last as long as solid-state components. That's where the Solid State Relay (SSR) comes into play. |

Electric Imp Development Card $29.95 It looks like and SD card.... it smells like an SD card.... but it certainly tastes much, MUCH better! Connect your project via wifi to the internet with the powerful, configurable, programmable Electric Imp. |
And if the trend continues, next time we might even have four products! Scandalous... Numbers are so tricky. I think I'll go count my fingers now (and maybe even toes if I'm really adventurous). But I'm afraid that will be too much, I might not be able to sleep tonight. Life can be overwhelming sometimes. Keep everything under control, especially your toes, and see you next week!

We're big fans of "Scientific American Frontiers" around here. We were quite surprised to trip over this link of a program called "Games Machines Play". Well worth a view, if you can spare better part of an hour!
