NEW PRODUCTS THIS WEEK

Seeed Studio Round Touchscreen Display for Xiao / QT Py: Seeed Studio Round Display for XIAO is an expansion board compatible with all XIAO development boards. It features a fully covered touch screen on one side, designed as a 39mm disc. It contains an onboard RTC holder, charge chip, and MicroSD card slot within its compact size, perfect for interactive displays in smart homes, wearables, and more.

Adafruit Switchable USB Type A to C Breakout Board: We don’t quite know what to call this doohicky – some folks refer to it as a USB Condom but that’s specifically for when the data lines on a USB port are disabled so that a device charges without data access. This board is a little more advanced: you can manually switch each of the 4 wires on or off for a variety of uses.

Adafruit CH9328 UART to HID Keyboard Breakout: We love using chips with ‘native USB’ peripherals – that’s the magic silicon that lets a microcontroller act like an HID keyboard or mouse or disk drive or MIDI synth. It’s a standard addition on SAMD21, RP2040, and even the latest ESP32-S2 and ESP32-S3 boards. But what about when you have a classic ATmega328 Uno? or an original ESP32 or ESP8266? Maybe even a single-board computer like a Raspberry Pi? We would say “sorry…that’s not possible” UNTIL NOW!

The CH9328 is a funky chip that is basically a programmed microcontroller that enumerates as an every-day HID keyboard and can convert ASCII or 8-byte raw reports, read over a standard serial port UART, into keypresses. So, you can emulate a keyboard even if your chip doesn’t have native USB! You do need a hardware or software serial port: some way to generate 9600 baud 3V-logic signal that the CH9328 can read.

The Book House by Xykit #3DPrinting #3DThursday

Xykit shared this project on Thingiverse!

A resting place for that book your are in the middle of reading. This 3D printable book holder / drawer cabinet can be made into a variety of configurations. Just keep it on your end table, night stand, or coffee table. Tuck your reading glasses in the cubby, and add some drawer stackers to store pens, a highlighter, the remote, or little trinkets nearby. The drawers are accessible from either side of the cabinet and come with two variants, with and without alignment top pins. Stack them up and let gravity hold them in place, or for a more permanent connection we recommend gluing the boxes together with super glue or epoxy.
The main foot print is approximately 175mm x 175mm, the height will vary depending on how many drawers you add and whether or not you use the base.

All pieces are positioned in the their intended Support-Free printing position.

Five Exceptional SFF Bookstores and Libraries

See the full list here on ReactorMag.com

Super fun list about about fictional bookstores and libraries. Earlier this year my kids (finally) moved out of the destructive phase and we now can rent library books on the regular. I had forgotten the magic of these spaces and it’s been such a joy to rediscover them through a different lens. Each library has its own distinct character and feeling, enough so that my almost four-year-olds are discerning enough to request to visit different branches depending on the day. It doesn’t take much to transform a regular library into a fantastical one, which is why the setting of a library is so ripe for sci-fi and fantasy stories. Still, of course, some stories do it better than others! I was happy to see the library (of the Neitherlands) from Lev Grossman’s The Magicians included here. Though, as the author of the post Cole Rush notes, it’s not exactly the most peaceful or charming place.

Readers can never truly get enough of books, and the proof is in the pages: Even when we’re reading to escape to another world, we love when we encounter the familiar sights, sounds, and smells of places packed with shelves of old and new books. Bookshops and libraries tend to make appearances in many of my favorite sci-fi and fantasy tales, and they’re always a welcome addition to any fictional world. I never pass up a chance to explore a bookshop, even when I’m right in the middle of a story!

New Products 5/29/24 Feat. Adafruit I2C Controlled + Keypad Shield Kit for 16×2 LCD!

Ceramic Sharp Point Tweezers

We’ve got the New nEw NEW for you right here:

NEW PRODUCTS THIS WEEK

Ceramic Tip Tweezers

You’ll need a good pair of tweezers when soldering delicate surface-mount (SMD/SMT) components. These are a great pair of precision, heat-resistant tweezers. They’ve got a metal body and ceramic inset tips, so they are anti-magnetic and will not bend with use. The tips are fine and pointy to pick up components without risk of scratching, and because they are ceramic, they are also excellent for holding parts during hot air rework or if you’re going to get close with your soldering iron.

On/Off Round Key Lock – 12mm Diameter

MAJOR KEY ALERT 🔑🔑🔑 we now stock ‘Key Lock Switches’! These mechanical switches don’t use a button, lever, or magnet to open and close the contacts. Instead, a literal key is used. This low-cost but effective key lock switch is nice and compact: you only need to drill a 12mm / 0.5″ diameter hole in your mounting plate.

Momentary On/Off Round Key Lock Switch – 12mm Diameter

Insert the ‘bike lock’ style key and rotate it one turn clockwise. Now, the two contacts on the back are electrically connected and locked. Rotate it back counter-clockwise to disconnect the switches. This makes for an excellent ‘On-Off’ switch that requires the key to activate.

5.5mm/2.1mm DC Barrel Polarity Reversing Cable

Once in a while, we find products with center negative DC power jacks, and they really make us mad because who keeps around both positive and negative polarity versions of every voltage? Now, hopefully, USB Power Delivery will solve this long term, but until then, this 2.1mm DC polarity reversal adapter will have to do!

Pimoroni NVMe Base Duo for Raspberry Pi 5 – PIM704

Add two super-fast NVMe SSDs to your Raspberry Pi 5! Ideal if you need redundancy or just a load more storage on your RPi. Pimoroni’s NVMe Base Duo is a PCIe Gen 2 extension board for Raspberry Pi 5. To use it, simply populate it with one or two M-key NVMe SSDs (2230 to 2280 sizes supported) and mount it under (or over) your Pi for a compact and fast storage solution. It even comes with rubber feet!

Espressif ESP32-S3-EYE – ESP32-S3 Camera Board

Ever wanted to dabble in face and/or speech recognition? Espressif’s ESP-S3-EYE is a miniature AI development board. It is based on the ESP32-S3 SoC and ESP-WHO, Espressif’s AI development framework. It features a 2-Megapixel camera, an LCD display, and a microphone, which are used for image recognition and audio processing.

Adafruit TSMP96000 “Code Learning” Infrared IR Receiver Breakout – STEMMA JST PH 2mm

For classic 38KHz infrared remote signal reading, we’ve got a lovely STEMMA IR Receiver. But if you want to read infrared signals from remotes with different carrier signals, especially when you don’t know the frequency, this Adafruit TSMP96000 “Code Learning” Infrared IR Receiver Breakout has the ability to detect IR signals from 20 to 60KHz and provide the carrier signal for analysis. This is used for “code learning” situations where you want your device to work with any IR remote control.

Adafruit I2C Controlled + Keypad Shield Kit for 16×2 LCD

We really like the range of LCDs we stock in the shop, such as our classic blue & white and the fancy RGB negative and RGB positive. Unfortunately, these LCDs require quite a few digital pins: 6 to control the LCD and then another 3 to control the RGB backlight for a total of 9 pins. That’s half of the pins available on a classic Arduino!
