Digikey will sell you a single unit for 62 cents, which also -- praise be to cardboard christ! -- includes a box (though not a red one.)
A quarter is a slightly larger than a 20mm coin cell. Hope this helps.
Is that really the right price for a Honeywell IC? =)
10 steps? Errrrr... does it permit setting the sequence length shorter than 10, for those of us who aren't that proggy and would rather play in common time? (Meaning, 8 steps would be far more sensible.)
I wonder how accurately does it track down in the hundreds of Hz range. Could it be used as a musical synthesizer?
Keep in mind these are 5% tolerance, so if 2 ohms makes a difference in your circuit you should probably be looking for the blue guys...
Presumably whatever microcontroller you have driving this already has a source of regulated 3V3 or 5V?
Good point. They're probably just trying to educate kids on how in the tech industry, women are sexual objects whose purpose is to entertain men.
Was it really necessary to sexualize a boring new product post? When will people realize this kind of sexist innuendo is unwelcoming and unfriendly to women in the maker community.
It's not even a clever joke, there was no "tease" at all. If you had thought for 5 seconds you could have used "Strip Mall" or "Strip Mine" and that actually would have made some sense.
I should have continued on to say that calling analogWrite(redLedPin, 128); would (due to PWM) reverse-bias the red LED 50% of the time, causing it to be (roughly) half as bright. This is because when a diode is reverse-biased, no current flows through it. Makes sense?
