Looking for an ETX carrier board

2009-10-25T09:18:46Z

I got a few Kontron ETX boards I want to play with but before working on the
layout of final expansion board I would really save time by working with an
ETX carrier board which expose all the standard connectors USB, RJ45, etc
If you have one laying around with no use and wants to sell it for a fair
price please contact me offlist ( arocholl@... ).

BTW original ETX carrier boards from vendors like Kontron are too expensive
for the budget of this project.

Thanks

Wanted to Buy - Old Rhino Robot Arm (XR1)

2009-10-23T16:29:20Z

A professor at a local university is looking to purchase a Rhino XR1. He isn't interested in the other variations (XR2 - XR4) at the moment.

Does anyone have one laying around, or know someone who does, that they would consider parting with for a price? I've tried ebay, with no success. Any other suggestions about where to look?

For sale:
Digilent Inc.
Nexys Spartan 3 FPGA development board
<
https://www.digilentinc.com/Products/Detail.cfm?NavPath=2,400,797&Prod=NEXYS
>

The FPGA on this board is a Spartan 3 - 1000 NOT the 400k gate version
that is listed on the website. The board is 2 years old, at which
point they offered the 1000k gate device for $150. Because of this I'm
asking for $80 which is still lower than the 400k gate price.

It has a lot of interesting features: USB for power/programming
N.V. Platform flash
16MB SDRAM (auto-refresh built in)
4MB flash RAM
25/50/100MHz oscillator
8 LEDs, 4-digit seven-segment display, 4 pushbuttons, 8 slide switches
.. among others

The board works fine. It passes the built-in self test. I haven't used it a
lot.

USBProg2 new lower price

2009-09-26T16:38:50Z

The USBProg2 PIC programmer (http://www.embedinc.com/products/usbprog2) has
been reduced in price due to lower production cost (Thanks Djula).

The USBProg2 has the same electronics as the USBProg, but in a rugged box.
These are intended for field engineers, production techs, or any other
application where they may get bounced around a bit.

Resellers are welcome. Reseller discounts are available so you can make a
descent profit selling these devices for the same end user price we do.

Re:Open source shopping cart---Magento. was [AD]BB0703 and BB0703+ promotion.

2009-08-03T17:13:53Z

Magento is cool. Lot's of useful features.
A few un-convenient short-comes too, things like:

1. you cannot change order status directly from "Processing" to "complete" from drop down list. The button of "invoice" and "shipping" inside the sale info. must be clicked to change the order status to "complete". And sometime, it doesn't work at all, it will stick at "Processing" status forever.

2. A few test orders cannot be deleted (it still can be canceled) after either an invoice or shipping is generated for test purpose.

BTW, How's the trip to Microchip Masters?

Re: Controller board for Samsung 80 GB Spinrite SP0802N HDD wanted. ::

2009-08-02T18:02:25Z

> I wanted to mention that if replacing the controller board fails,
> you should try swapping the platters.

I've never taken recovery to that level before. The time may come. I have
one HDD from some years back which MAY contain photos from a Taiwanese
trip that I have found no backups of. (I may have a DVD backup thereof - not
yet checked thoroughly). (I have copies of the "best" but not the complete
set. Usually my backup procedures seem good enough, so far.

> PS What kind of backup system do you yourself employ?
Varies with material.
I distinguish roughly between 'photos' and 'the rest'. Photos are an
onsession, not (largely) a business but their retention is high on my
priority list.

Some mix of.

1 Usually [tm] - manual mirror of files to another PC on LAN.
2 Subsequent manually started backup to external USB hard disk.
3 Selected files on DVDs (usually photo records of trips)
4 Some few files sent by email for storage by a friend in another city.
5 GargoyleMail attachments.
6 Online photo storage of selected and less selected photos (Fotki stats
advise that I have 494 albums, 63754 photos, 33.87 GB uploaded since October
2005).

Considering possibility of internet transfer to a dedicated HDD in another
city - but unlikely to happen any time soon.

Considering dedicating a PC on LAN to backup with system located in
total-loss-fire-proof enclosure. May even happen.

1.2 I prefer manual initiation for various reasons. Does leave system at
risk of my reliability.

3. On trip (business or holiday) I tend to produce GBs/day of photos.
Increasing file sizes make this increasingly so. Files are sucked to laptop
at least daily and then written to portable HDD. Files are left on camera
card until card full. (Download modifies archive bit so only new images get
downloaded). May also write to DVD but less likely with this system. When
travelling over distance portable hard drive resdies in a pocket - usually a
front leg zipped pocket on 'cargo pants'. If I can get out alive my photos
have a fair chance of surviving as well.

I wanted to mention that if replacing the controller board fails, you should
try swapping the platters. Professional data recovery services do this in a
cleanroom environment, but in an emergency it is possible to perform this
type of surgery in one's home as well.

Searching for "Samsung SP0802N" on Google Shopping brings up a ton of
results, from $49.

Wish you success in your endeavor,

The PC power supply failed in some walking wounded manner and produced
substantial voltage fluctuations which damaged a number of components in the
system, including the hard drive. There is some prospect that the controller
board was damaged but that the HDD proper is still OK - I've recovered a
drive before now by simply swapping controller cards (although this has
failed for me in more cases than it has worked in).

If anyone has either a dead version of this drive or perhaps a working one
that is too small to be worth using (only 80 GB after all :-) ) then I'd be
pleased to discuss the possibility of obtaining its brain.

If someone local had one this may be able to be done on a trial and return
basis - on the understanding that the trial may destroy the controller. FWIW
- on the perhaps 10 or so occasions where I have unsuccessfully tried
swapping controllers I've never seen the trial unit damaged.
YMMV :-).

If replying to this via PICList would you please also send me a copy
directly. (apptechnz@...)

regards

Russell McMahon

* ALL Hard drives always fail. Lifetimes vary - typical range is minutes to
a decade or so, with median probably in the 3 year range by now. I've seen a
new Toshiba laptop drive 'gone by lunchtime' on its first day of use.

Oh, OK. I didn't know that the BlueSMiRF was updated to use the RN41.

Sorry, I realize this wasn't made clear. STM4100 is based on the RN41
module, so the command set is identical:

http://www.sparkfun.com/datasheets/Wireless/Bluetooth/rn-bluetooth-um.pdf

By the way, I love Sparkfun's sense of humor. The path at the bottom of
their schematic PDF reads:

\\pandora\work\eagle\projects\wireless\[...]

I spent about eight hours today restructuring directories on one of our
share drives, and it looks like I'm going to spend as much time on it, on
Monday. A dozen people using the server over a period of several years can
indeed turn it into a real Pandora's Box. :)

I was talking about a different spark fun device:
http://www.sparkfun.com/commerce/product_info.php?products_id=582

Which I think the profile is about the same, but is considerably more
expensive, and longer.

Do you know how to get to the documentation for the STM4100 ? The
data sheet listed with the device is basically specifications and
dimensions, no command set for the device.

Kevin, I have a feeling that you don't understand what STM4100 is. It is a
module that has all the features of the SparkFun DIP (on-board 5V regulator,
development-friendly connector), and in addition also has circuitry that
allows it to automatically go "bus-off" when a serial or USB cable is
plugged into the same circuit. It has a much smaller vertical profile, and
requires only a 2x6 2mm header on one side (so it does not intrude as much
on the host PCB).

You get all this, for only $4.95 more than you would pay for the bare RN41
($39.95 vs $35), and $20 less than you would pay for the SparkFun module.

Here's a picture I just took, of two old lab samples (I apologize for the
quality):

http://maksimov.org/piclist/sparkfun_vs_stm4100.jpg

Notice that the connector on STM4100 is female, and the holes go _through_
the PCB.

Sparkfun's module was designed to plug into a breadboard, where space is not
an issue. STM4100 was designed to be used in a production device with a very
low vertical clearance:

http://www.scantool.net/elmscan-5-bluetooth.html

I hope it all makes better sense now.

Re: STM4100: Low Profile Bluetooth to UART Module - $39.95

The base module that the spark fun device uses is only $35.00

http://www.mouser.com/Search/ProductDetail.aspx?qs=sGAEpiMZZMtqO%252bWUGLBzeMW4TCGBne5E

and much lower in quantity. However, its a 3.3v device and requires
SMD soldering skills. The extra dollars to spark fun are for a 5v
interface and having already soldered to a board that is easier for
hobbiests to work with.

However, looking at the bottom picture of the device, I'm not sure
its all that much lower in profile. There are jumpers and connector
on the bottom of the board. The spark fun module is smooth on the
bottom, no components.
