We've finally come upon a suitable replacment for the venerable, discontinued VPM vibrating pager disk motor. Ah, it was a splendid device, but it sure was easy to break those motor leads... Ah! But the new VPM2 has wires prebonded to the motor, and it's slightly smaller too! We welcome our new vibrating disk motor […]
New Stuff!

February 5, 2003
We've been busy little elves at Solarbotics. New to our product listing is a fair number of parts and ICs that have been requested of us. Like what? Wellll...:
You always need new chips. Especially when somebody on the BEAM list has made something cool:
- LM324 Op-amp (happy now, Bruce?)
- LM393 Dual comparator
- LM386 Audio op-amp
- LM339 Quad comparator
And you can't have new chips without new chip carriers!:
- DC8Pin - 8 pin dual inline IC carrier (for the LM386, 8212, and LM393)
- DC16Pin - 16 pin dual inline IC carrier (for the L293D and 74AC139)
- DC20Pin - 20 pin dual inline IC carrier (for the 74xx240 and 74xx245)
And what fun is it if you can't put your new ICs and carriers on a robot with a new motor?:
- RM2 - High power drop-in replacement motor for the GM2/GM3 gearmotors
- TPM2 - A new, less expensive alternate to the old TPM tiny pager motor!
- RPM2 - The Namiki 1701 replacement; comparable performance for less money!
Ummm... That's it. For now. We now return you back to your regular programming schedule.
