Components

From London Hackspace Wiki

The Hackspace carries a range of electronic (and other) components in stock. As a rule, members can use anything for free, as long as the cost is less than £1. However, if you're using more than £5-£10 worth of components a month, we'd appreciate a donation to cover those costs.

Purchasing

Please include a link to the item, preferably from Farnell, or it won't be ordered.

Please do not edit the wiki as a way to comment on other people's requests. If a component needs ordering, move it to the top of the relevant list, and date the request.

If you're a member of the space we'll happily order components for you and take advantage of bulk discounts/free shipping. If the component you request is cheap, we may order more than you need and bring it into stock in the space (if that's the case, then it's free as above).

Urgent Requests

Please only add things here if they are urgent, and ask on the IRC channel to make sure that someone with access to the Farnell account sees it.

Standard Requests

Items with a Farnell item will be ordered with the next batch, items not in Farnell will only be ordered from time to time.

Older Requests

These are various requests made at some unknown point in the past. They'll eventually be removed or ordered.

Previous orders (DO NOT EDIT)

This section is to keep track of past orders. DO NOT edit this section unless you have just made an order.

If you want to report stuff that's running low or missing, copy the relevant item to the Requests section. Making a mess of this page won't help us ordering the right components.

June 2013

  • Hex inverter CD4009UBE @Farnell
  • 3.5mm stereo jack
  • 4093 (four NAND Schmitt Triggers in one chip, useful for e.g. polyphonic square wave oscillators) (now UK stock)
  • 4017B ("decade counter"/10-step counter, useful for sequencers) (now UK stock)
  • 555 and 556 timers. These are generally useful, we should always keep a few in stock.
  • Bits for the Oki PS-900 soldering station. PHT or SFV series should fit, and be hot enough for toxic-flux lead-free solder.
  • chocolate blocks
  • 200 x 2.5mm Cable Ties Delivered
  • NPN transistors. There was a bag marked 2N3904. I think that's a reasonable Farnell part to replace it with.

May 2014

  • Desoldering braid (get 4) Farnell
  • 9v PP3 batteries Farnell
  • Medium (1mm) (get 2) soldering wire Farnell
