Look! Bird (-shaped bullets) made holes in bird... feathers! Well, not quite, although that would have been awesome too. Actually we were doing some nitrogen-assisted laser tests on various regular, i.e. boring materials, such as plywood and mat board. Then I came across some feathers and here's what it turned out to be: Now that […]
New Stuff!
Dave Hrynkiw
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.

New Items!
Besides introducing a whole new batch of Push-Pogopins (and their measurements) into the 'misc' category, we've just introduced our 'D2' Germanium Diode. This diode is pretty good - better than the 1N270 and 1N34 types, with a voltage dropout of only 0.36V at 50mA! We're not exactly sure what type it is, but since we […]
