Are these too big?
Or maybe you could have them order the 8" digits for you.
I'd entertain proposing building 200 of these for you, but then the thought of soldering 14,000 LEDs comes to mind. Or even buying 14,000 LEDs.
Dang! These guys have 14,000+ of them!
$2,520. 10mm Green LED, Diffused
$240 for 200 tpic6b595 chips (Mouser, $1.20)
$88 for 150 ohm resistors (you can source 24V for these? 12V? what?) (Mouser)
$1812 for 3.5" x ~7.8" PCBs
$xx for 200 connectors (what'd you have in mind?)
Total: $4,660 + labor to assemble/test & ship out.
$23.20 & counting for 200. $21 for assembled/tested boards with control CCAs sounds like a deal.
Too bad they only have 32 of them.
How far is the thing that sends the number to display going to be from the digits?
You're actually after 1,000? 5 digits x 200 displays?
I bet you could find a contract manufacturer to make them for you.
If only I had access to a pick & place & wave solder machine.
When do you need them by?
