I'm glad you liked it. Now it's time to heating up the soldering iron.

I ordered 4 boards so I would be in for 4 in a group buy.

Let me know if I can help.

Is there interest to organize a buy group,for "difficult" components,like WAGO 256,Sil pad 800,relay 2co and 1co etc?

Dear friends,i have a problem from a hacker in my h.disk.I need to reinstall the win7.
So i can't support the group buy.I'm sorry..

I'll hope you have proper backup and use the latest anti-virus. (I have Windows 10 on my mac and it took only 10 minutes to install. Works good so far.)

This was a very long shipping, sent 14th of April!

 

[Ardahan]

Yeah, it took a bit shorter in previous GB, but no problem for me as I'm in no rush.
Thank you again for an other great GB.
Also to be noted, I find your business cards very nice
Best regards.

PA03 Inductor help

I used the inductor that I bought in previous group buy to copy.

The BOM states "15 turns Ø1.3-1.4 on dia Ø8 Inductor, 0.7-1.5 uH"

I took an inductor to a Hardware store and found that a 1/4" hardwood dowel fit

perfectly inside the coil. I counted the turns 14 not 15.

I used 16 ga magnet wire 1.291 mm.

I sprayed insulating varnish to cover any dings in the insulation.

My questions are, will these work.

Does it matter that I wound them in the opposite direction of the supplied coil?

Thank you

 

[peranders]

Yes, the absolute value isn't critical.

 

[peranders]

Does it matter that I wound them in the opposite direction of the supplied coil?

No.

the red pcb arrived thank you
