David Johnson-Davies designed a minimalist ATtiny85-based watch using 12 LEDs, arranged like a clock face, to show the time in analogue-style. He writes: To show the time you press the button on the watch face, and the time is then displayed for four seconds. It lights one LED to...

The PCB Rax is an easy to use, versatile printed circuit board holder for repair, prototyping , and assembly that can hold nearly any shape of circuit board. Check the details on the link below. Not all circuit boards are rectangular. PCB Rax was designed to hold all kinds of...

Susanne Nell @ edn.com has a design idea on how to measure high dc currents. To measure high levels of direct current for overload detection and protection, designers frequently use either a current-shunt resistor or a toroidal core and Hall-effect magnetic-field sensor. Both methods...
