We are planning a redo of this page with [[Components New]] this is old copy of [[Components]]<br />
<br />
=== Passives ===<br />
==== [[Resistors]] ====<br />
and Potentiometers<br />
<br />
==== [[Capacitors]] ==== <br />
<br />
==== [[Other Passives]] ====<br />
including Inductors and Transformers<br />
<br />
=== [[Microcontrollers]] ===<br />
Little Computers for your entertainment.<br />
<br />
=== [[Integrated Circuits | Other Integrated Circuits ]] ===<br />
[[Op amp|Op Amps]], Voltage Regulators, Drivers, Digitally Programmable Potentiometers, [[555 Timers]] ... For motor drivers see Motors below.<br />
<br />
=== [[Transistors, Diodes, etc.]] ===<br />
Diodes, Transistors are described here. ( But not Light Emitting Diodes = LED or Photo Diodes which are listed under Optoelectronics. )<br />
<br />
=== [[Optoelectronics]] ===<br />
LEDs, photodiodes, optoisolators, LCDs, IR proximity detectors,...<br />
<br />
=== [[Oscillator]] ===<br />
Crystals, Ceramic Resonators, oscillators, ...<br />
<br />
=== [[Connectors]] ===<br />
<br />
=== [[battery|Batteries]] ===<br />
Power Up.<br />
<br />
=== [[Enclosures]] ===<br />
Cover up.<br />
<br />
=== [[Sensors]] ===<br />
Accelerometers, Gyroscopes, Temperature Sensors, Pressure Sensors, ...<br />
<br />
=== [[Switches|Switches and Relays]] ===<br />
Turn things on and off.<br />
<br />
=== [[Motors]] ===<br />
Make thing move. We include some circuits/chips for driving motors<br />
<br />
=== [[Modules]] ===<br />
GPS, Mobile Phone, RF Transceiver, Bluetooth Modules, ...<br />
<br />
=== [[Popular Parts]] ===<br />
So many parts to pick, but which ones? Why not pick a popular part, or a group of parts for areas of interest?<br />
<br />
=== Component [[Manufacturers]] ===<br />
Links to homepages, phone numbers, contact info, ... There is often info under each component as well in the components sections above.<br />
<br />
=== [[PCB Manufacturers]] ===<br />
contact info, PCB trace width/spacing capability, ...<br />
<br />
=== [[Suppliers]] ===<br />
Good places to buy, numbers to call, people to talk to, ...<br />
<br />
Get your low cost motor controller boards & motor driver ICs<br />
<br />
=== [[Free Samples]] ===<br />
Free is nice.<br />
<br />
=== [[Free From Salvage]] ===<br />
Dig in, to the free stuff, a list of links and a bunch of ideas on how to use your loot.<br />
<br />
=== [[Salvage Ideas]]===<br />
<br />
Unusual ideas for the fruits of your labor.<br />
<br />
=== [[demo board]] ===<br />
<br />
Lots of people put a microprocessor and most of the other essential stuff on a tiny little demo board, easy to plug into your solderless breadboard (or your custom PCB) that has just a few more things that make your project special.<br />
<br />
=== data sheets ===<br />
<br />
You will want data sheets for you parts.<br />
Check:<br />
* original manufacturer<br />
* parts distributor<br />
* http://www.datasheetcatalog.com/<br />
<br />
=== Links ===<br />
<br />
*[http://www.piclist.com/images/www/hobby_elec/e_parts.htm Basic Components] Quite a few components and some info on use.<br />
