#135055 - Yes, and that's where the real lesson lies. Responding to: Erik Malund's previous message |
If people would learn to apply due diligence in the form of preparation by studying specifications and learning the relevant techniques, rather than simply trying to "hook-em-up," there'd be a lot less trouble all around. It starts with "read the WHOLE datasheet, not just the first page ..." and goes from there.
It also includes, "believe nothing of what you hear and only half of what you read ..." RE |

| If that is the case be happy, the more jumpe | Erik Malund | 03/12/07 09:33 |
| Mike, when will you... | Kai Klaas | 03/12/07 10:31 |
| It isn't me | Mike Stegmaier | 03/12/07 10:50 |
| Four layer boards?? | Kai Klaas | 03/12/07 11:03 |
| The only you get is a circuit >somwhat working< | Kai Klaas | 03/12/07 11:22 |
| sure, but he does not want to 'design' he wants to | Erik Malund | 03/12/07 11:30 |
| Connect A to B | Kai Klaas | 03/12/07 11:35 |
| naah | Erik Malund | 03/12/07 11:43 |
| are you sure you're not overstating your case? | Richard Erlacher | 03/13/07 12:37 |

| As sure as one can be... | Kai Klaas | 03/13/07 13:28 |
| All my commercial wire-wrap boards had 'em | Richard Erlacher | 03/13/07 13:53 |
| by Dr Howard Johnson and the like | Erik Malund | 03/13/07 14:47 |
| I don't think so ... | Richard Erlacher | 03/13/07 22:19 |
| so you DO think so | Erik Malund | 03/14/07 06:09 |
| Well, yes and no ... | Richard Erlacher | 03/14/07 10:53 |
| true, but how often have we seen | Erik Malund | 03/14/07 11:08 |
| you can't FIX everything | Richard Erlacher | 03/14/07 12:59 |
| not a word about lying | Erik Malund | 03/14/07 13:33 |
| That would be a mistake | Richard Erlacher | 03/14/07 21:54 |
| qualities often lacking | Erik Malund | 03/15/07 06:09 |
| Yes, and that's where the real lesson lies. | Richard Erlacher | 03/15/07 11:10 |
| Almost total agree... | Kai Klaas | 03/14/07 20:28 |
| I don't think we entirely disagree, Kai ... | Richard Erlacher | 03/14/07 22:32 |
| Yes, less and less entire disagree... | Kai Klaas | 03/14/07 22:43 |
| Slot antenna | Joseph Hebert | 03/13/07 14:11 |
| I think it's a loop, not so much a slot antenna | Kai Klaas | 03/13/07 23:29 |
| Slot antennae | Joseph Hebert | 03/14/07 05:11 |
| Exactly! | Kai Klaas | 03/14/07 19:22 |
| "Target" | Kai Klaas | 03/12/07 12:13 |
| Free Target? | Andy Neil | 03/12/07 13:18 |
| Identical | Kai Klaas | 03/12/07 15:36 |
| I found 1/2 the answer | Mike Stegmaier | 03/12/07 17:51 |
| why library for LCD? | Patrick De Groote | 03/12/07 17:54 |
| It doesn\'t require a library, just a decent editor | Richard Erlacher | 03/13/07 13:17 |
| ?? | Kai Klaas | 03/12/07 19:49 |
| In many respects, bEagle is probably the WORST | Richard Erlacher | 03/13/07 13:15 |
| I don't like Eagle either! It's not professional! | Kai Klaas | 03/13/07 13:30 |
| hmm | Mike Stegmaier | 03/16/07 08:09 |
| You may want to go back and read the comments | Richard Erlacher | 03/16/07 15:46 |
| I have given up to help Mike... | Kai Klaas | 03/16/07 22:58 |
| I'm not stuck to eagle | Mike Stegmaier | 03/17/07 07:19 |
| I would try to get a second hand win98 PC | Kai Klaas | 03/17/07 09:03 |
| He hasn't searched for drivers yet. | Richard Erlacher | 03/17/07 10:18 |
| Not necessarily true... | Robert Revens | 03/17/07 12:16 |
| not necessarily, but very likely | Richard Erlacher | 03/17/07 12:18 |
| You guys must like microsoft alot | Mike Stegmaier | 03/17/07 20:23 |
| ... and you're sure it doesn't emulate a laserjet? | Richard Erlacher | 03/17/07 23:21 |
| stabile and relialbe ?! | Andy Neil | 03/18/07 17:00 |
| Well the OS (XP in this case) doesn't type well | Richard Erlacher | 03/18/07 17:32 |
| Stability | Andy Neil | 03/19/07 03:02 |
if it ain't broken... | Patrick De Groote | 03/19/07 11:13 |
| Not Identical | Jon Ledbetter | 03/13/07 10:51 |
| Huh? | Robert Revens | 03/13/07 11:21 |
| Looks to me like it is just for hobby or | Jon Ledbetter | 03/13/07 11:32 |
| What is your manufacturer? | Kai Klaas | 03/13/07 11:48 |
| Sunstone Circuits | Jon Ledbetter | 03/13/07 12:00 |
| Thanks | Kai Klaas | 03/13/07 12:53 |
| Identical refering to operation, of course! | Kai Klaas | 03/13/07 11:47 |
| No, but | Jon Ledbetter | 03/13/07 12:08 |
| much of? | Erik Malund | 03/13/07 12:20 |
| One thing he finally accepted ... | Richard Erlacher | 03/13/07 13:27 |
| Ah, thanks :) | Caslav Nedeljkovic | 03/13/07 09:39 |

| see my pcb tutorial link in chat forum | Mahmood Elnasser | 03/12/07 13:43 |
| What about the associated software? | Andy Neil | 03/13/07 10:34 |
| No direct output | Robert Revens | 03/13/07 11:25 |
| haven't tried it | Mahmood Elnasser | 03/13/07 11:33 |
| There's a learning curve with any package | Richard Erlacher | 03/13/07 10:22 |
| Link? | Rob Vassar | 03/13/07 10:23 |
| maybe that's why it still exists | Richard Erlacher | 03/13/07 12:06 |
| Running on a Windoze box? | Andy Neil | 03/13/07 10:29 |
| It works best on a DOS-box | Richard Erlacher | 03/13/07 12:16 |
| without commenting on he wisdom | Erik Malund | 03/13/07 11:51 |
