Pabile Stabilizer Test Pad (STP)

Pabile Keyboards’ Stabilizer Test Pad (STP), also called as Only Stabs, is a dedicated testing station for PCB-mounted MX stabilizers. The STP allows you to verify stabilizer performance and smoothness before final assembly. It can also serve as a fully functional macro pad, powered by the RP2040 microcontroller and compatible with common keyboard firmware. Specifications Compatibility: PCB…

I'm not obsessed with these little boards, not at all... *looks shifty*

But, if anyone is interested on just how small they are, here are some pics...

Okay, firstly, I've been away from Tumblr for far too long...time to fix that...

This if my first foray into electronics for a couple of years and I love how the likes of the Raspberry Pi have made miniaturised control easily available.

I put together the glowing orb in this video for a cosplay project, with the "pulse" effect being provided by a Arduino-compatible Pro Micro board from Sparkfun. The code for making the effect is about 15 lines long and includes a randomiser to change the timing between each "pulse" and give it a more random, organic feel (which you would expect a magic orb to have).

Power requirements seem to be minimal, with the unit happy to take power from a USB battery pack via the onboard micro-USB port, and also includes a regulator to accept juice from any other source between 5v and 12v.

Gonna be using some more of these bad boys in my costumes!!!

Got all the pieces and parts for the matrix in today. Currently powering the matrix from a lab supply here at work, but I should be getting my hands on an ATX supply here soon so I can continue work at home.
