Re: JSL-502 Series 5V Tolerant 5mm LEDs (HCOPTO0057-59)

The manufacturer simply states the forward voltage as 5V @20mA for all three colours. However they will actually start conducting at forward voltages of 2.2V, 2.7V & 3V for the red, green, and blue LEDs respectively. The manufacturer doesn’t mention a current limiting resistor but the measured forwa...

Re: IR Remote Control Kit (HCKITS0006)

Hi Chris, Thanks for pointing this out. We used to ship it with a 21 button remote but that was a long time ago. I’ve had a look at the listing and everything looks ok apart from the bit in the description where it says 21 buttons? I’ll get the description updated and double check the stock to make ...

Re: Pic - K150 ICSP Programmer (HCDVBD0002)

The table in the first post of this thread is an exhaustive list of all the devices the supplied microbrn software and the K150 can program so if a device is not in that list it wont be able to program it I'm afraid.

Re: mLink 1ch (HCMODU00182), 2ch (HCMODU0183), And 4ch (HCMODU0184) I2C / Parallel Relay Modules

Re: mLink 1ch (HCMODU00182), 2ch (HCMODU0183), And 4ch (HCMODU0184) I2C / Parallel Relay Modules

Just for reference, we have just published the mLink library to the PlatformIO registry: https://registry.platformio.org/libraries/hobbycomponents/mlink So that should make using the mLink library with ESPHome a lot easier. To include the mLink library in your project you would just need to add it u...

Re: USB to RS232 TTL Serial Interface Cable (HCCABL0015)

Loop-back worked fine. Great. That means we can rule that out as the problem. avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding avrdude: stk500_getsync() attempt 1 of 10: not in sync: resp=0x5c avrdude: stk500_recv(): programmer is not responding The error message simply means 'I can't upload th...
