Well the rockets in this case are fireworks. I was probably too vague with my description in the term rockets. I was under the assumption that it took only a small ammount of amperage to heat a piece of nichrome wire to ignite a fuse. I ordered a sample pack of various gauges as small as 45g and as ...

lol good god its so hairy now. Listen I had thought about using cat 5 cable would that be workable? i don't want to fool with terminal blocks on my abs box but id like it to be more robust. so i thought perhaps that i could even use one of those nice little surf mount rj45 jacks? that or phone wire ...

Ok now I've hit yet another snag (possibly) I have previously left the full details of my project out due to two reasons, 1. The nature of this project and my "less than certified" standing in the field of electronics would have undoubtedly drawn many "you'll shoot your eye out kid&qu...

Ok youre right those lcd's do like nice lol. I grabbed those specs as well but i think ill start with the led first as I have a tendency to alter my plans a lot haha. Also my uncle was an engineer with lockheed for a long time and actually makes the pcb for me once im ready for a prototype. I dont d...

amazing input from all of you! thank you much. JPK.. thank you for for the references to the pinouts/reference material. I do certainly scavenge from my old pcbs great for dips etc. I beleive I will indeed just lose the decade all together as id hate to go through the work to have out of sync displa...

Looks like thats leaning in the right direction. A few questions, it says that the circuit accepts any TTL compatible logic signal so being the amatuer that i am i must ask. My board is using a standard 555cn timer as the osc. for the decade counter 4017be.. As it is now there are 10 leds running fr...

Greetings, Iv'e recently got my feet wet with my newfound love for electronics. The first project I completed was a simple astable 555 timer, moving on to a monostable. I now have on my 15$ breadboard (lol couldnt help but jest at radioshack) a decade counter (4017b) using a 555 ic as the oscillator...
