Sign me up for an 8 digit Mitch!  Really really neat!  So is it just two
8's put together to make 16?

You will need six tubes.

 Hi Richard,

 The current version won't support more tubes. I will do a 15 or 16 tube
 version, but I'm not sure when it will be available, but probably by the
 summer. I haven't started working on the hardware or software yet.

 The B7971 version will  be available by the end of this month, and the
 two digit add-on board, probably a month or two later.

Re: [neonixie-l] Re: IV-17 Word Clock

Is it possible to run it with 4 digits?  Also, I would probably be
interested in one as I am sitting on B7971s.  I can't remember if I have 6
though.

The B7971 version is a 6 digit word clock. The add-on board will make it 8
digits, but no time frame on completing the software for the add-on board.

 I can’t seem to find matching LEDs for the blue-green color, to use for

How many digits is the B-7971 clock?  I'm interested.  I have two mod-six,
a new 7 digit clock from Mahdi forum member, and the four digit FLWC from
another passed well known forum member I bought.  All are B-7971 clocks.
What's the two digit add on for?

Re: [neonixie-l] Re: IV-17 Word Clock

[gregebert]

Speaking of b7971's , I see a pair of untested 7971's on Ebay with a 
starting bid of 150 USD eachyikes.
I'm glad I finished mine a few years ago.big tube, and quite versatile, 
and a bit ugly.

Whoever is determined enough to acquire a batch of these, rest assured 
you'll get used to the ugliness after awhile.

Can you update us as to where the version that supports more IV-17 (like 
12,15 or more etc) is sitting on your road map?

Would there be add-on modules for the first kit or separate boards etc?

I just need to update my own construction road map!

Ok thanks.

 

Although I might still be interested in getting one, I will hold off as I

This project is finished. I wasn't able to find any LED that came close to the

resistor to match the dim glow of the displays.

 

The driver for the six digit B7971 word clock is also finished, just waiting

you are going for 15 or 16 digits.
Is that a two tube add-on board in the bottom of the picture?

The IV-17?   Yes, I have a few boxes, but they are still cheap on ebay.   Like

This is the latest version. I think I can narrow the main board by another 15mm

If you ever do make kits/boards I would also be interested.

Thanks

[Mitch]

Thanks, Richard. Good idea, especially since those tubes are so cheap. I'll 
put that on the list, which is getting smaller by the day. The 30v supply 
should be able to handle many more tubes. I'm not sure about the filament 
supply, though. A second board using an additional HT16K33 will add up to 
eight tubes, or seven and colons.Or maybe one board that holds 15 
tubes.With 15 tubes it can also run the Union Square Metronome clock 
display.

The B7971 boards should be here next week. Some software work will be 
needed because the tubes are directly driven using HV5530 chips. The 
HK16K33 and driver chips are not used because I didn't want to multiplex 
them. It is a six digit board, but a two digit add-on can be connected to 
the right side to add another colon, and two more tubes.

This is the latest version. I think I can narrow the main board by another 15mm

[neonixie-l] Re: IV-17 Word Clock

[Mitch]

If the new board designs work well, I'll probably make some kits available 
without tubes.

I'm working now on a B7971 version that will use six tubes, with an add-on 
board to make it eight digits. The circuit design for this one is much 
simpler. It will use a Taylor power supply, same as all of my Nixie 
designs. It will be direct drive, so it can't use the HT16K33 chip. The 
driver software will be different. Otherwise operationally it will be the 
same as the first three word clocks. Because the tubes only have 14 
segments, Russian won't work, and Klingons won't be happy.

Re: [neonixie-l] Re: IV-17 Word Clock

[Mitch]

Thanks, Dave. I didn't know that part was available. It looks like a great 
choice to use as a separator, but I want to keep the colons, and the part 
must be very small to keep equal spacing between the digits.

 The supplier is able to source 3mm LEDs in a wavelength between green and 
blue, so I'll try that next.

The clock is designed for alphanumeric displays. I checked the datasheet 
for the IV-4. The pinout is the same, but the datasheet is in Russian so I 
don't know if there are differences. Worst case, the voltages can be 
adjusted by changing four resistors.

This wasn't intended to be sold, but I'm not sure now. We'll see when the 
new boards arrive next week. WordClock-2 will definitely be available by 
the end of the month. Displays will ship from China next week. Those 2.3" 
displays are gorgeous, with extremely intense colors.
