5 × OSRAM SFH 213 (PIN) photodiode Opto and Fiber Optic Semiconductors Photodiodes 400 nm to 1100 nm Tr/Tf=5ns
5 × VIshey BNP 10 (PIN) photodiode Opto and Fiber Optic Semiconductors Photodiodes 380 nm to 1100 nm Tr/Tf=2.5ns
2 × Red LED 5mm, CREE, If = 20mA, 23500mcd,
2 × Green LED 5mm, MARL Nichia, If = 20mA, 37700mcd,
2 × Blue LED 5mm, Knightbright, If = 35mA, 18000mcd (OR Blue LED 5mm, AVAGO, If = 20mA, 12000mcd)
2 × Amber LED 5mm (or any Orange-Yellow), AVAGO, If = 20mA, 18000mcd
2 × TCXO (Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator) of variouse values 1 - 100MHz (sugest 2, 5, 10, 24.0000 MHz As a starter kit) Temperature Compensated Crystal Oscillator for use as a stable clock reference.
4 × SN74AC14 Logic ICs / Gates and Inverters with Schmitt-Trigger input
2 × SN74AC08 Logic ICs / Gates and Inverters
2 × Arduino Nano v3.. - Atmel ATmega 328p MCU 16MHz No need to introduce we all know Nano, right :)
1 × Arduino UNO - Atmel ATmega 328p MCU 16MHz No need to introduce we all know UNO, right :)
1 × Arduino Due - Atmel AT91SAM3X8E (ARM-M3) MCU 84MHz No need to introduce we all know DUE, right :) just do not forget it is 3.3 to max 3.6V tolerant
1 × chipKIT Pi - PIC32MX250f128 40-50MHz MCU (with USB bootloade) up chipKIT Uno32 with PIC32MX320F128H 80MHz up to chipKIT Max32. PIC32mx MCU in ChipKit is great performer when you need fast port manipulation, like Due they also work at just 3.3V but have some 5V tolerant ports/pins.
10 × Lens Lamp SML 1089 IP67 - for 5mm LED; Metal housing, mounting-Ø8 mm,The glass lenses Ø10 mm , glass dome and glass cover Ø13 m Lens Lamp housing with focusing lanse
2 × OPTIONAL 1: INFRARED EMITER Vishay TSAL6200, LED 5mm, High speed Tr/Tf=15ns, If = 100 mA(200), Ie=72mW/sr (200mW/sr),Peak wavele
2 × Optional 2: INFRARED EMITER Vishay TSFF5210, LED 5mm, High speed Tr/Tf=15ns, If = 100 mA(200), Ie=180mW/sr (360mW/sr), 870nm OR
2 × For a fun: Arduino Laser, LASER READ 5mW -5V in a brass barrel with a lens (ø 5mm) 650nm, 40mA Just to see how far you can go :)
