Man’s best friend – 40 pin male breakaway header with 0.1″ spacing.

DC barrel jack, PCB mount, right angle. Center pole diameter 2.1mm fits common DC wall wart power supply plugs.

4000V rated USB 2.0 Full/Low Speed Isolator IC from Analog Devices. PCB and parts kits, as well as populated and tested USB Isolator board based on this chip, are also available.

Set of two 6 pin and two 8 pin female headers which fit standard layout Arduino Shield and allow stacking of shields on top of each other. These headers are also known as “4ucon part numbers 18688/18689″.

Parts and kits for building USB Isolator. Bare PCB, single or in combination with ADuM4160 and LT1376 as well as 2 kits – one containing full set for isolator plus power supply, another – just the isolator. For reflow soldering enthusiasts solder paste stencil for this board is also available.

This board breaks electrical connection between USB host and peripheral while allowing data to pass. Design is based on Analog Devices ADuM4160 USB Isolator IC. Supports full/low speed USB 2.0 compatible operation and peripheral side power up to 600ma. A useful addition to any PC-based test instrument, USB audio device, as well as any other USB application where elimination of ground loop or power line pickup is desired.

This is bare PCB of 3.3V to 5V DC-DC converter described above.

This little supply converts 3.3V to 5V providing up to 600mA. Based on Linear Technology LTC3426 boost controller. Comes handy when 5V is necessary in 3.3V system, for example, USB circuit or HD44780 LCD contrast control.

This is a previous version of a PIC-80 breakout board. It was designed for “Classic” PICs – PIC18F6722, PIC18F8722 and such. There is no configuration jumpers and no power options. It is cheaper, too.

This is a breakout board designed to accommodate PIC micro controllers in TQFP-80 package. Supported parts include classic PIC18s, PIC18 J-series, dsPIC30F, dsPIC33F, and PIC24s. All power configurations are possible. This 2-sided board is routed mainly on the top side; bottom is served as a ground plane making it work well up to the maximum clock frequency.

Bare PCB of USB Host Shield.

This shield adds USB Host capabilities to popular Arduino platform. Comes in four different configurations (details in the article). Software support for new devices is constantly added; at the moment, code for USB keyboard and PS3 controller are ready with Bluetooth and digital cameras in the works.
