Void269:
Sounds amazing! How would I go about buying one? Also, I'm planning on putting the board in an E-11 stormtrooper blaster that I'm building and one of the features I want to integrate is a push-pull solenoid to give a little force feed back when the trigger is pulled. Any thoughts on how I would wire it up?
Are you in the 501st?
With the push-pull solenoid do you refer to a buzz-motor (haptic feedback, vibration motor etc.)? If yes, it's quite easy, depends on the current. I have some small ones which can be driven from a digital I/O. But then it's more or less an on/off kind of thing. If you want to control the vibration speed, you could connect it to a PWM signal.
As to getting one, I'm now having the first bigger batch manufactured, might take another month or so to get the parts.
