[neonixie-l] Looking for advice on shift registers

HI William, I am a realative newbie to programming so I think what I did would be easyer to understand. I have already done what your are asking for I have a arduino connected to 3x 595's for 24 Output pins also I wrote a code for it so it changes based on a RTC. It was for a art project where

Thanks any think else? there hast to be more! I am gathering references for what i am making. So any is there anything i need to include like over current shutdown, i think it's called? I am writing a proposal so fancy big words and technical specifications. Also i have only seen one... hmm

LoL Muntzing. Is this about my post about me figuring out that i can use a pic to drive a FET? I hope i didn't offend anybody with my self discovery, i am just learning and i was ecstatic when i made a boost power supply with out even looking at a single schematic. -- You received this

oh I see what your taking about, that if you have a capacitor on the anode output the capacitor has to charging every time the anode is turned on. My clock isn't set up that way. The power supply is constantly on and the one capacitor is almost alway full. Then 4 anode drivers all connect to

[neonixie-l] Need Help with VFD Power supply

2011-08-07 Thread Eric1180
I plan on using a 555 or a AP34063 and i have a IRF510. But i don't know what to adjust to get the voltage down. I think the plans you use to make Nixie power supplies are called MK1.5 or MK2. it would be easier to figure out what to adjust if i have a IRF710 and and i could just tinker around

WoW funny i just went out on my own and made a adjustable PS using only 4 passive: capacitor inductor resistor and diode. And 2 active: a transistor and Arduino. I think you misunderstood what i said about 170v. All i was saying was all of the plans i have found put out 170v and i was simply

Do you cut your own acrylic cases? My clock had a acrylic top and then another frosted decorative layer that is cut out with a design. But i am so so picky about everything being Perrrfect. But Acrylic is a tricky material. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the

No, No ghosting everything works great. I have a lot of controls over my clock with the program I made. Why do you asks about ghosting? I would love to learn more. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups neonixie-l group. To view this discussion on the

Hi my name is eric and I am 17, I started of will no experience and I have built a clock using a Arduino clone called anarduino, It's a very small module type package. Having no previous programing skills I have completed my nixie clock. My arduino gets the time from a Real Time Clock 1307,

Thanks Dmitry :) that was very help full. i just wanted to be cautious i would hate to kill one of these. Also i didn't know the voltage thanks for that info 2. On Jun 29, 1:35 am, Дмитрий Дианов dvdia...@gmail.com wrote: 2011/6/29 Eric1180 ericmercado1...@gmail.com Hi does any one know
