    Not seeing the datasheets for those power supply chips is a bit of a disappointment…

    Hi julian, Would you comment this unit. Idea is to add to existing UPS and get better quality sine output.

    Wow, that clock's quad-7 looks nostalgic with the blocky segments! And they still make them!

    How did your positive to positive/negative board function for audio? Interested to hear your opinion on that board

    So when your accent makes you sound like Julian Clary, is that because of some kind of weird nominative determinism, or being the same age, or being from the same county, or what ? It seems fascinating that people from such a small country can speak so differently. It used to be like that, in the USA, before network television, but not any more.

    The fun part about waiting 3-4 weeks for Chinese things off eBay is trying to remember what you intended to do with them.
    I've had little kits and adapters and components sit on my desk for months because I couldn't remember what I was going to make/do/fix.

    Everybody likes eBay tat.

    It's interesting that the instructions for the 'watch' say that the acrylic case is very fragile, when it is supposed to be worn on the wrist. It won't last for very long then! The whole contraption looks huge in the video. So, Julian, please tell us the diameter and thickness of the watch. Thanks.

    Wonder how that two-chip design compares to using one of those MCUs that have a low speed watch crystal oscillator for low power modes and clock uses. Could at least save on board space as long as it can drive the LED current.

    Why not use your phone with a Google translate app on it and see what the chinese text says..?

  13. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars KX36 says:

    What sort of equipment did you field service engineer for?

    I'm glad I'm not the only one who remembered that song.

    I guess SCM stands for single chip microcontroller.
