Our Bluetooth sound panel was getting buggy, so one motivated member rebuilt it from scratch using our electronics stock. The new MuMaLab Control Panel has soldered connections, industrial-grade buttons, a logarithmic fader and a sturdy TRS aux input. No more crackling, no more loose connectors.

Today, I received my #RGBtoHDMI for my #Amiga500 and the first thing I did after initial test was installing the audio board.
I had two options, #soldering it to the RGBtoHDMI, floating in the air, or at the back of the #RaspberryPiZero. I decided to try the first. Luckily there was enough clearance underneath to not touch any components. I did bend the legs of the capacitors a bit first.
The image is a lot clearer now, I'm satisfied.

Here is my first 'current creature' for this autumn’s Gravel Art exhibition! I am interviewing each of the participating artists to create a small sound piece based on their work—a manifestation of their art in the form of a 'current creature.'
Since the exhibition is outdoors, I am building the small autonomous beings on printed circuit boards (PCBs), using simple, affordable electronic components.

This is how yesterday's build of a giant NE555 timer chip (designed by @tubetime accidentally attributed to Windell instead) compares to an original NE555 timer chip. Isn't it cute?

Ah je vous mets une petite pépite de #GALÈRE, parfois ça arrive et là c’est immortalisé dans un film ! 😅 Soudure d’un condensateur SMD, une des pastilles est reliée à un plan de masse, ce qui a pour effet de dissiper rapidement la chaleur et de gêner la soudure. Mon fil de soudure est un poil gros (⌀ 0,5 mm) et difficile à doser, je n’en avais probablement pas mis assez pour commencer. Le liquide répandu au début, c’est du flux de #soudure, ça aide à faire baisser la tension superficielle du mélange en fusion.
C95 juste au-dessus, qui présente les mêmes caractéristiques, a été soudé sans anicroche.

A few impressions of the #repair of my #Apple #PowerBook100 with lots of leaky caps. I had to open the HDD, too, to free the heads that were stuck in parking position. But now it boots again. I have to take a closer look at the LCD, though, the contrast is way too low and the potentiometer has no effect. Maybe the LA5316 is broken, or the leakage spread further than I noticed. I had to clean the side behind the caps in the picture, too. A replacement screen is no option, so I might have to abandon this project when I can't fix it. The #powersupply is beyond repair, and the battery is dead, too.

@tobozo I tried it. What a difference!
Now the RSSI is at around -40 to -42 and there are no send errors, send retries or send timeouts since I added the antenna.
Very cool 😎 as I can keep using these modules after all.
I also figured out how to get them fully running on CircuitPython.
This was my first time soldering after probably more than 20 years ...

🎶 Oh, look! Another brave soul attempting to reinvent the wheel by crafting a TB-303 from scratch, because, you know, buying one or using software synths is just too mainstream 🙄. Loopmaster's guide is here to ensure you spend countless hours #soldering circuits just to realize you could've been making music instead. 🔧🔊

Here are the boards! I soldered a first one by hand, but the #WS2812B #LEDs are very close to each other. So some have burn marks. Hot air is no option, it would burn them up. So, I bought a hot plate and tried again. It's so much faster and easier! And it worked directly after #soldering.
I only need better solder paste, this one was difficult to clean.

Guía para construir un Amiga 4000T desde cero
John “Chucky” Hertell ha publicado la primera y segunda parte de una guía técnica para construir un Amiga 4000T desde cero, con enfoque totalmente práctico y avisando que no dará soporte a quienes se desvíen del montaje indicado.
La primera parte recomienda empezar por las daughterboards: placa de conectores y Drive I/O (terminación SCSI, disquetera, lógica 74LS) y la placa de Audio/Video (chips de señal como el CXA1263AM y jumpers para audio de CD). Se destaca un punto crítico: los conectores DSUB requieren modificar sus laterales para encajar. También se detalla el cableado, con dos ribbon cables de 40 pines de longitudes exactas: 20 cm (SHORT) y 25 cm (LONG), conectados según etiquetas para evitar daños en chips como Paula o las CIAs.
La segunda parte entra en la motherboard, donde la alimentación con fuente AT exige seguir la regla de “cable negro al centro” para no quemar la placa. Hertell remarca la soldadura de zócalos PLCC como principal fuente de fallos y propone avances por hitos: comprobar sincronismo tras montar chips como LISA/ALICE/FAT GARY, ajustar el jumper del reloj CPU (INT/EXT según CPU/aceleradora) y usar DiagROM para pruebas iniciales. Finalmente se cubren memoria (hasta 16 MB de Fastmem en placa), recomendaciones de terminación SCSI y detalles de Kickstart 40.70.

Holiday soldering project done! It's a N2630, a modern remake of the old A2630 accelerator card for the Amiga 2000. I haven't got the right Motorola 68882 coprocessor at hand, so that'll have to wait for now. Apart from that this is ready for testing. #amiga #amiga2000 #retrocomputing #soldering

To anyone who wants to bring their why2025 badge to 39c3, don't forget to bring your antenna. If you don't have yours anymore, I am bringing a few kits with an antenna and connector (thanks to @a51c ).
I have 7 of them with a half-decent antenna for €6, and 2 of them with a the original badge antenna for €3.
The LoRa module on the badge also requires two bodge wires to be soldered. Two pieces of wire and instructions are included in the kits.
On some badges it may be required to remove some epoxy around one of the battery holders, and even if it isn't, it may make soldering the bodge wires easier. You may also want to make your badge safer and more compact by removing the battery holders entirely.
I am also bringing some epoxy removal kits for free (they're just alcohol wipes and disposable vinyl gloves).

I've finally gotten around to again my broken Model 01 #keyboardio keyboard. I'm starting to run out of spare switches so I'll need to buy new ones soon.
