The AB Electronics UK forum is open again for new posts. After closing the forum in 2025 to review our obligations under the UK government's Online Safety Act 2023, we've made the necessary changes and are pleased to welcome the community back.
Today we received a question from a customer asking how fast the ADC Pi could sample all its 8 input channels and log to a file.
We’re delighted to share an innovative contribution from one of our community members, Warren. He’s successfully created a project using a Raspberry Pi 2 paired with our Serial Pi RS232 adapter to operate an EPSON Thermal Printer, all controlled via PHP.
In August 2014 the Raspberry Pi foundation announced a new revision of the Raspberry Pi model B called a Raspberry Pi B+ which was a redesign of the old board with a new 40-pin GPIO connector, two extra USB ports and other changes on the board to improve the power consumption and changes to the memory card.
After seeing the initial images and information on Sunday 14th July and the official release yesterday announcing the new Raspberry Pi Model B+ boards, we ordered the new boards from RS Components and they arrived today.
We have made a video demo showing our Servo Pi board driving 16 RC servos with various drive modes and sequences.
GitHub user OZ1LQO has written a script to use an NTC Thermistor with our ADC DAC Pi using python.
Gavin Andrews has found a very interesting way to use our Com Pi or Serial Pi board with a GPS module to use the Raspberry Pi as an NTP server.
We would like to inform our valued customers that, starting from the 1st of January 2014, we will be applying UK VAT at a rate of 20% to all our orders. This change comes as a result of our recent registration for VAT with the United Kingdom tax office.
We have been playing with the XY mode on my scope and an ADC/DAC Pi board to generate shapes on the Raspberry Pi and oscilloscope screen.
Due to problems with customer’s not receiving emails from us for their order confirmations and other order related emails we are no longer able to accept orders from customers who are using email services using the following domain names.
Angelo Compagnucci has written a kernel driver for the Microchip's MCP3422, MCP3423, and MCP3424 high-resolution ADC chips and this is compatible with the ADC Pi or ADC Differential Pi development boards from AB Electronics UK.
This post was submitted by Craig Edwards Dagda, who has been using a Pt1000 thermistor with the ADC Pi board and was getting unexpected results. He explains how he resolved the problems.
