#veroboard — Public Fediverse posts

I build #circuits to drive projects, like a kiln controller or a robot. My prototypes are built with bought modules on #veroboard. A module takes Vin and GND, and provides IO as SPI, I²C, 0-5v, etc, so I can ignore the specifics of each chip and work on the fun integration stuff.

The problem arrives when I want to make a #PCB without modules. I then I have to open a million datasheets and spend a week finding components, fixing footprints and routing.

@hackernews After first excitement i calmed down real quick. This is way to early to use by "a normal user". Using veroboard traces are usually CUT ON A HOLE (with a drill bit) and NOT between two holes. Plus the whole build and compile thing here is way too much for a plain "user" . I don't see this as "usable" just yet. But it can be one day, with some more love put into it. #veroboard #electronics #linux #opensource

I'll test the TOF sensor in #Forth at first, before moving to the ESP32 in C.

I did contemplate some low power #555 and #FET switching for transmitter and receiver, that's always fun to play with on some #VeroBoard #StripBoard, especially playing with duty cycles to reduce power usage for transmitter LEDs.
