64x128 char LCD fit almost perfectly into the opening in fuse boxes, resulting in a very clean case for larger projects. This one is for this project.
The PCB can be attached to the DIN rail.
To people who uses CURA (> v3) for 3D printing and uses the same machine for programming Nano, I found out if you have Cura open and hook up your Nano, the Nano keeps restarting frequently (eventually it stops, but really annoying). Solution is to turn off Cura. Im using a Mac so dont know if this happens on Windows PC.
thought I'd share this little quark. Have a great day!
Wire capacitors in parallel to get a higher uf. That might not be ground breaking to pros, but to a new maker, this is mind-blowing. It allows you to use multiple ceramic capacitors for making a slightly larger ceramic capacitor, good if you don't want to buy new parts but want to use up lots of old capacitors.
In that video, the method for finding the position of holes was using a piece of paper to trace them. I've used a flatbed scanner to do the same job. Just scan the board with the cover open (mind your eyes) and print in monochrome at 100% (without scaling). The holes show as black spots on a lighter background. Cut the print to shape and tape in position for drilling.
Not really a tip but, this seems like a good place for it. I needed a template for a 1602 LCD display. This one worked best for me. I had to tweak the zoom to 151% to get it just right. Offers the option to have the display recessed or extending through the panel.

I keep these charts printed out and taped up where I can see them so I don't have to figure out resistance in my head. Yes, I know that makes me sound old, but since I am old I can deal with that.
