Desk of Ladyada - Adafruit Breakout Board Styling
from Adafruit Industries · host Adafruit Industries
We just posted about a clip from a new movie out this month called "The Suicide Squad" which, for like a tenth of a second, has an Adafruit breakout board visible as part of an explosive prop. What's funny is how when we streamed this I noticed the board immediately. What makes an Adafruit board so adafruity? We'll cover our style and why we do it that way. The Great Search - TPS73101 Ultra-Low Dropout Adjustable Regulator Alternative https://www.digikey.com/short/28j2b28d We just got an update notice of a crowdfunding campaign that is struggling with how to find an alternative for their specified regulator, the TI TPS73101. We thought we'd take a look at what alternatives we could find - in case other folks are having regulator-sourcing issues! (This part may not actually be a drop in alternative for this project, we're just using it as inspiration!) #adafruit #deskofladyada #thegreatsearch Visit the Adafruit shop online - http://www.adafruit.com ----------------------------------------- LIVE CHAT IS HERE! http://adafru.it/discord Adafruit on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adafruit Subscribe to Adafruit on YouTube: http://adafru.it/subscribe New tutorials on the Adafruit Learning System: http://learn.adafruit.com/ -----------------------------------------
