Suddenly a loud bang from the lab at the local #hamradio club ‼️ 💥🤯
Luckily nothing happened to the people in there, but I guess it’s safe to say that this vintage capacitor decided to quit its job 😂
Always wear safety glasses 🥽 when testing and troubleshooting #electronics, especially if it’s vintage gear where you have no knowledge of its state and health☝🏼
New USB hub installed and running. Found a different power supply, plugged into the old hub, which seems to be still functional, so just the power supply was the problem. Need a way to check USB voltage outputs before putting it back in action... Maybe will slice open an unused/old USB cable, should have kept one of the bad ones around here. 🤔 #electronics

questions for #electronics builders from a noob:
I want to build a weird lamp composed of sub-lamps with a slider pot to control the brightness of each one via a microcontroller watching the pot on an ADC pin and doing PWM.
* what resistance range is good for this such that the slider will have an effect over its full range of travel?
* slider pots tend to have a huge tolerance of like 20%, is this usually fixed by testing each one and adding fudge factors to the code?
Preparations for the upcoming #fabacademy in the northernmost fablab in Lyngen Forskningsstiftelse Mit.
https://academany.fabcloud.io/fabacademy/2026/bootcamp-instructors/
https://fabacademy.org/2026/schedule.html
Besides updating the course material, I'm also working on new projects. I'll be giving workshops on #Meshcore/#Meshtastic and the #Fabsat. And all of that in a fantastic environment!

Watching Netflix's version of The Three Body Problem (the Chinese one was better)
But these switches are awesome and I'd like to how they're called or if they're custom props. I might want to get them for an art project, a cyberdeck or who knows what.
Any button experts in the room? Please and thank you.

Hello and welcome to the second installment of #nakeddiefriday in this new year!
Today's image is of a M37620E8FP, a Mitsubishi microcontroller. This should be one from "group 7620" but I did not find a datasheet for this one. Custom markings on the package likely identify the ROM and its version.

Many thanks to @RueNahcMohr for supplying this sample!
