I realise that this is money still has to be spent answer, but this talk about having to replace television sets seems slightly scaremongering to me. Unless your government has passsed some extremely restrictive rules or manufacturers and their agents have decided on a strange marketing ploy, the te...

I just seen this topic, I'm amazed that even in the US you can buy a SD or HD television set for $189.00. Now if you feel like some conversion fiddling (unless your TV set has SCART sockets or equivalent) you can buy PAL-B/H SD set top boxes here in Australia for about AU$49.00. Basic HD types are a...

I just thought I'd let anyone interested know, that I've updated the code for the above, and it is now more accurate - now uses buttons rather than a rotary encoder (eventually I'm going to have capacitive touch switches). The only drawback, is for the moment the code is Celsius only. If anyone woul...

Depending on the age of your children and how much they like or dislike maths, there is Electronics, Mechs, Maths and Computing, which has nice active diagrams and some self testing calculators. This is paid for software Correction - it now appears to be a free download - maybe this is just for Chri...

MrAl, to the best of my knowledge, credit card companys prohibit the charging of orders that are not immediatly shipped. Backorders or cancellations would never show up on your statemet until that order was received and shipped by vendor. Somthing is seriously wrong with their billing department! U...

Microchip are clearing out their PB parts at a discount. They've got analogue, memory Pics 16/18 and some 30F plus one RF part. You can find the specials if you go to the buydirect site and click on the green panel on the left side. Many of the parts are in QFP/QFN outlines but there are some DIP on...

1. A minor or unspecified object or article. 2. A set of light, open shelves for ornaments. I'd never heard of the second definition. 2. A set of light, open shelves for ornaments......[second definition].....as in ...For Bric a Brac. Stuff. Informal. Hence the phrase, 'shelves full of whatnots' Co...

Well, being the Englander on this board, I can say that form a UK perspective, 'whatnot' is a used as a conversational phrase. It can be used in print as a sort of derisory comment, but most often used if someone is writing in a 'paly' (that doesn't look right) gossipy sort of way. Perhaps your NASC...

With some of the development kits there were some small demo programs. There are some 'C' programs available for downloading from the Zilog website. What might be helpful is to download one of the development C demos from Renesas or even looking at demo code for the microchip PIC. www.fored.co.uk ha...

You might want to look at the code to my water meter project from N&V 2003, that uses a flow meter, perhaps that might help you.

There was an attempt at such a beast, I think it was called UMPS, but I don't think it progressed very far. However, if you are willing/able to learn 'C', structured basic, Java, then you can get very close to one language for many uC's. Unforutnately, there are not only differences between 'C' comp...

Sorry folks at the moment I'm in your country (California,for work), so the time window, we had going between AL and Me isn't working. I'll be back in Australia on Saturday your time. One of the problems is not the posting as such, but there are a number of bogus members, many the same person with m...

For parts, check the surplus parts stores.

BGMicro or Goldmine, for instance often have end runs of OEM marked parts.
