Well, 50 years ago today, the Regency TR-1 transistor radio was unleashed on the masses. As the first transistor-based radio on the market, it made a splash. And here we are, 50 years later, making robots out of the same technology. Regenchy TR-1, Solarbotics salutes you!

Wee, more protoboards! Now this is the last batch, we don't got no more. Next time it will be something else, I promise.
|
PadBoard-1 Pad-per-Hole, 80x50mm Solder Protoboard $3.75 A tight and tidy one-pad-per-hole, plated-through, double-sided board. Ideal for wildly-wired, small projects! |
 |
PadBoard-2, Pad-Per-Hole, 80x100mm Solder Protoboard $6.82 For the ultimate in protoboard flexibility, here's a one-pad-per-hole, plated-through, double-sided board from BPS. |
 |
ProtoBoard2H-1, 2-hole Strips, 1 sided, 50x80mm $3.11 Long strips of copper too much for you? Complex zig-zags drive you nuts? Here's a nice compromise - solder prototyping with pairs of connected pads. |
 |
ProtoBoard2H-3U, 2-hole Strips, 100x160mm Solder Protoboard $10.78 Long strips of copper too much for you? Complex zig-zags drive you nuts? Here's a nice compromise - solder prototyping with pairs of connected pads. |
 |
ProtoBoard-3U, 6-hole Strips, 1 sided, 100x160mm $10.78 This traditional soldering protoboard is very similar to a solderless breadboard, but also accommodates a 96-pin VME backplane connector for slotting connectivity. |
 |
StripBoard-1, 80x50mm Solder Protoboard $3.11 Medium size stripboard protoboard, featuring full-width solder points. |
 |
StripBoard-3U, 160x100mm Solder Protoboard $10.78 Stripboard make for fast prototyping for simple circuits. |
 |
SMTpads-Size1, 80x50mm, 50x50mil Pad SMT Protoboard $3.75 This 50mil-pad breakout is best for larger SMD components on 50mil or 100mil pitch spacing, with a ground plane. |
 |
SMTpads-Size2, 100x80mm, 50x50mil Pad SMT Protoboard $6.82 This 50mil-pad breakout is best for larger SMD components on 50mil or 100mil pitch spacing, with ground plane. |
 |
SMTpads-Size2, 100x80mm, 50x50mil Pads,SMT Solder Protoboard $6.82 This 50mil-pad breakout is best for SMD components on 50mil or 100mil pitch spacing, with a duplicate set of pads on the other side (no ground plane). |
 |
SMTpads-Size1, 80x50mm, 50x50mil Pad SMT Protoboard $3.75 This 50mil-pad breakout is best for larger SMD components on 50mil or 100mil pitch spacing, with a duplicate pad arrangement on the backside. |
 |
SMTpads-Size2, 100x80mm, 100x100mil Pad SMT Solder Protoboard $6.82 This 100mil-pad breakout is best for larger SMD components on 50mil or 100mil pitch spacing, with a ground plane on the other side. |
 |
SMTpads-Size3U, 100x100mil Pads, 1 Side Pads, 1 Side Ground, Unplated Holes $12.99 SMT parts are pretty common. This massive 3U size solder protoboard features 100x100mil pads on a large 160x100mm surface. Has ground plane on other side. |
 |
SMTpads-Size1, 80x50mm, 200x100mil Pads, SMT Solder protoboard $3.75 For REALLY large SMD devices, the 200x100mil pads on this smaller protoboard will make construction much easier. Has ground plane on other side. |
 |
SMTpads-Size2, 100x80mm, 200x100mil Pads, Solder Protoboard $6.82 For REALLY large SMD devices, the 200x100mil pads on this protoboard will make construction much easier. Has ground plane on other side. |
It might be flying solar powered noodles, haunted samosas or gilded lardsicles... I highly doubt we'd have these exact items, but something not less exciting!

Organizing the Advanced Section
Every once in a while we like to re-arrange the furniture. Sure, it's nice to have things look new and different, but most of the time we're just trying to make things just work better. This week we've done a little bit of restructuring of our Advanced category - we hope it'll make it easier […]
GM10 Wheels
These motors are simply too cool not to have wheels for, and although you can screw on a wheel to the existing motor output arms, these GM10 wheels are much more convenient. We built a micro-sumo robot ("MicroVore" - yeah, we know it means "micro-eater") for the PDXBot competition last week, and came in third […]
Resistance is Futile if < 1ohm
Hey, look at us! We made a witty, over-used joke! But seriously, this week we have a schwack-load of resistors for you. Normally we save most of these for our internal use, but what's so fun about that? So we've gone ahead and opened up our entire inventory of 5% accuracy, 1/4 watt resistors. There […]
