Fluke/Philips PM66xx Frequency Counter OCXO Upgrade
In this post Dan Watson documents an OCXO upgrade board he designed for the Fluke/Philips PM66xx line of frequency counters. A few months ago I purchased a Philips PM6674 frequency counter on eBay. It's an older 9 digit counter with two channels that has a maximum input frequency of...

3.3V to 30V DC/DC converter using SN6505A
Bob tipped us with his latest project. It's a 3V3/30V DC/DC converter using SN6505A from TI. Recently I'v got my samples of SN6505A, it's a really nice IC, so I decided to make a simple DC/DC converter to get familiar with it. What I like in this chip is that it can operate on input...

DIY 32ch FPV 5.8ghz LCD
Spikey made his own DIY 32ch FPV 5.8ghz LCD. He writes: If you’re like me, you don like buying stuff that’s ready-to-go, but rather build one yourself. We usually spend more money, but it’s way more satisfying I really didn’t want to buy an overly expensive FPV LCD receiver,...
