asking for help with electronics, ordering parts
so im considering building myself a torn keyboard: https://github.com/rtitmuss/torn
this is like the 5th time i mean to do this but once again im just staring at the bom they linked to and am completely overwhelmed (https://octopart.com/bom-tool/5oG983n7)
i only really know one seller in germany which apparently only sells two parts in this list, what the hell do i do with this
re: asking for help with electronics, ordering parts
@mxdragon oof, I wonder how much of that is regular availability issues and how much is the ongoing chip shortage
re: asking for help with electronics, ordering parts
@mxdragon looks like the only way to get all parts involves a fuckton of international shipping charges
re: asking for help with electronics, ordering parts
@noiob yeah but i wonder how necessary *this exact capacitor* really is
re: asking for help with electronics, ordering parts
@mxdragon any cap with similar specs and the same footprint will do
re: asking for help with electronics, ordering parts
@noiob guess i will just have to spend several hours on that tomorrow huh
do u have a store u can recommend btw?
re: asking for help with electronics, ordering parts
@mxdragon the only SMD part I ever bought was a single fuse off of Reichelt
