Electronics I think I was right to wimp out of smd soldering!

A bit too tidy for my skill, I think!



Yep I ordered them pre-soldered to dip adaptors from http://www.phanderson.com (For the record its a pair of 1-wire chips. A dual counter and a quad A/D).

Now if anyone can point me at a way of getting a RJ11 socket (2pins connected only) onto some veroboard, I'd be most interested!

 

1. solder the wires directly to the board
2. take a fan-connector from a spare mobo
3. kidnap a spare fan-connector form a mobo
4. use legs from some resistors or cap's and glue the plug in place with hot-glue (this way it could pe taken appart)
5. By a correct connector

 

Opps, I've created some confusion:

1. The fan connector was there for scale only. (nothign to do with this project
2. I meant RJ-11 e.g phone socket.

Soory

 

rip one out of an old or dead 56k modem and just solder it on

 

I think rapidelectronics.co.uk sell them.
