I would like that the Bicicle LED POV project is added under POV projects. Here is the link: http://code.google.com/p/bicycleledpov/

Thank you.

I'm a hobby robotics programmer and can't design a circuit to save my life. I would love to see a braking H-Bridge that won't fry my bot. --RProgrammer

There seems to be a lot of overlap between this [[projects]] page and the [[open source electronics]] page.
What is the right thing to do?
--[[User:DavidCary|DavidCary]] 09:19, 7 June 2007 (PDT)

Options:
* move the list of all the specific projects to the [[projects]] page. Keep [[open source electronics]] as a general definition, with a link to the [[projects]] page.
* ... Can you think of a better way to handle this?

== ADSL Wireless/Ethernet modem ==

Hello,

Does anybody have a schematic for ADSL modem - either for wired Ethernet or wireless?
A design based on a Linux supporting CPU would be highly useful. Searching on the net doesn't yield any easy results.

: I did a bit of googling -- '"adsl modem" reference design' seems like a good search string.
: I see that at least one commercially-available ADSL modem already runs Linux.

Hi,

Thanks a lot David. I may be a bit too demanding, but I was looking out for a nearly 'readymade' schematic, which I could implement. I am not too good at analog electronics, but can understand and design digital interfaces. Hence a schematic for the ADSL decoder section and its interface to a micro-controller will help me.

Thanks again !

== XMEGA XMultiKit Development Kit and Oscilloscope ==

How can I add my project to Open Circuits?
[http://www.gabotronics.com/development-boards/xmega-xmultikit.htm XMultiKit]

XMultiKit is a development kit for AVR XMEGA microcontrollers and a dual channel oscilloscope with function generator.

: ''I mentioned it at [[oscilloscope]]. Would a page at [[XMultiKit]] help? How else can we help? --[[User:DavidCary|DavidCary]] 21:22, 27 January 2010 (UTC)''

== too big to edit ==

Is the [[Projects]] page getting [[Wiki:TooBigToEdit]] ?
What is a good way of "refactoring" it into smaller pages?
--[[User:DavidCary|DavidCary]] 22:08, 12 April 2010 (UTC)

-- This seems simple enough. How about just dividing the Projects page into sub pages based on categories (e.g. Arduino, power, robotics, educational, etc; Refer to the Instructables site for example).
