• O Fortuna!

  Got them working in circle format. Now I that I've verified the spin order, I can redesign that PCB. 😬

• Fritzing around with vias

  Yesterday I went from
  

  • drawing my PCB plan out on the whiteboard, to
  • thinking it would be nice if I knew what I was doing enough to put some components on the back, like the coin cell holder at least, to
  • figuring out how to do it in Fritzing. Crazy! I've made my via bed and now I must lie in it.

• It moves!

  Isn't that Jell-o cube LED awesome?
  I have no idea why it takes so long to slow down and stop. It wasn't doing that earlier. The suspense may kill you.

• Breadboarding and resistor substitution

  kristina panos • 12/26/2019 at 23:37 • 0 comments

  I've breadboarded this up and it sort of works. I think the problem may be the extremely short leads on my 1uF cap, or else the fact that I don't have any 3.3MΩ resistors and substituted with three 1MΩ resistors in series. I do have six 100kΩ to make up the .3 on each, but I worried I wouldn't have the room. Time to rewire!
