Our GM2 gearmotors are powerful, and just a bit slower than a standard servo, making them ideal for a walker. But for you folks who like wheeled robots, these are simply too slow. Solarbotics' own Grant McKee to the rescue! We barely had the motors opened 10 minutes before Grant figured out that these motors […]
Friday New Product: FETs
Solar botics
July 11, 2014
What we have today are not Fairly Expensive Tortillas or Fortunately Edible Theremins, but Field-Effect Transistors. If you know what it is, I will leave you to explore:
|
1RFZ44N N-Channel FET $2.50 The IRFZ44N is a very powerful useful N-Channel FET, with only 0.0175ohms resistance pushing 20 amperes at 5V! |
 |
FQP27P06 P-Channel FET $0.95 A robust P-Channel FET that is capable of interfacing with most 5V-logic microcontrollers. |
 |
NDP6020P P-Channel FET, --2.5V gate, -20V, 24A max $1.95 An N-channel FET with an extremely low gate voltage which can be controlled by most 3.3V and 5V microcontrollers. |
..and no, these are not even Forcibly Eccentric Tabbies.

Well, 2010 is in full swing and we've been pretty busy. We don't have any new product to show off this week, but our Flickr feed has been getting a lot of love - we just received our first pick and place machine(s), and we've uploaded all of our magazine ads. Well, I guess that's […]
Tech Tip: Micro Terminal Blocks
We use many, many devices with 0.1" spaced holes, which are pretty much an electronics design standard. We're finding these 0.1" space terminal blocks incredibly useful for making solid, secure, yet serviceable connections to the rest of our designs. We'll often reach for a microcontroller board, then reach for a necessary handful of these parts […]
3D Printed frame for Line Follower
Ohhh, we like 3D printers. We're working with the local Protospace to fund-raise for a Makerbot. I want to see one of these Line Follower chassis (especially as some of the parts look particularly familiar!). LOVE open source hardware!
Solarbotics has been operating for more than 25 years, bringing electronics know-how and supplies to both the electronics professional and hobbyist. We'll be happy to help you too!
