This could be the end of our driver problems!
I, as you may know, designed a driver for Kenom's barrel GB. In conjunction with drlava. Much thanks to him, i couldnt have done it without him!
Now I am offering them separately.
These are professionally printed, solder masked and silk screened PCBs, fully assembled and tested w/ all components.
The second picture is 1:1 with 1280 x 1024 resolution on a 17" screen. I included a ruler on the bottom, of TWO CENTIMETRES. To help you get an idea of the size.
Dimensions are 0.693" by 1" or 17mm by 25.4mm.
It is totally variable current with a solder pad w/ resistors for selecting BluRay or red diode current ranges.
BluRay 12mA to 80mA, Red 80mA to 350mA.
Note that this is a Low DropOut (LDO) regulator, and has a theoretical 1V drop Vin to Vout. So you could (theoretically) run a BluRay diode on only 5.5V input, or a red on 3.5. That said, it can also cope with voltages up to 13V so you can run it off pretty much anything.
Recommended to add some sorta heatsink to the chip if you are running it above 200mA. But its up to you.
[edit]Price!!Blanket price of $4 per board plus $1.50 postage per order in the continental US.[/edit]
This driver is being prototyped (by me) at the moment, I am currently waiting on parts.
So what u think? Whos in for one?
I have already had interest for FOUR in about 30 seconds on IRC so I thought I'd see whos in for one here.
