I was working on my old computer today and had the graphics card out so I could lubricate it's heatsink fan, with Spray & Cook of all things (much quieter now) and decided to take some macro shots while I was at it.
I'd forgotten how easy it is to take macro shots with my Fuji S7000, no need to get out other lenses and close-up filters as I would with the Canon EOS 300D. Perhaps I shouldn't sell the Fuji after all. It has its uses.
First electrical engineering laboratory devoted to Electronics. Situated ground floor north side of old engineering building under the blue room lecture theatre. Later converted to basement collection of the engineering library. Don Hewitt is the student at the Cossor double beam oscilloscope!
First design I've ever had printed. I already see problems that might make it difficult to actual solder to.
Sorta works - need to have another try at repairing it. Considering just ripping out the electronics and putting my own amp circuit in it instead.

A new generation of cheap lightweight plastic electronic technology that does not require silicon, but which is optically transparent and can be coated onto everyday objects would transform our world.
"Working collaboratively with industry is not only satisfying in that I see aspects of my work translate into real engineered products, but it provides inspiration for new avenues of research too. Roadmapping then allows me to critically assess how I should be developing my research portfolio and engaging with industry to maximise the likelihood of productive collaboration."

Imagine electronically updated food labels, computers embedded in our armchairs, even contact lenses linking us directly to the Internet to bring us into the age of plastic electronics. In this video podcast Dr Andrew Flewitt and Dr Robert Phaal both from the Department of Engineering and Scott White serial entrepreneur and CEO of Pragmatic Printing talk about the creative partnership forged between different parts of the Department of Engineering and outside companies that enable the technology and research in this area to be exploited successfully.
20+ years old and still soldiering on.
Probably a low-cost "contractor" type unit at the time, but it does the business. If analogue TV were still around this would probably show up any weakness/degradation rather more than the present-day digital fare.
Even "cheating" by passively splitting one of the outputs into two doesn't seem to have had any ill effect either.
I don't think they made "one in , five out" units ...

The Upper Board of the Tranz 330. It has a VFD display with controller chip, a 16 key keypad, and a speaker (on the reverse side. Not pictured). The mag stripe reader plugs into it too.
Vacuum tubes, resistors, diodes, a Tube Screamer guitar pedal, transistors, terminal strips and more!
Got my "samples" from Microchip today... The largest size I could get their 16 bit I2C ADC in was SOIC. Had to make a breakout for getting to know it on the breadboard. Small stuff. I think I'm ready for a better soldering iron. This'll be part of the front end for the curve tracer I've been working on. The 10 bit ADC on the MCU wasn't cutting the dang mustard.
My new headphones got a wireless conversion. Bought a connector, butchered a cable I had. Made a new short adapter cable and connected to my bluetooth receiver. Self-adhesive taped on. Works like a charm! The best headphones got even better! Why chose among the few wireless cans when you pick your favourite ones and make them wireless? Fantastic. I wish I had thought of this years ago.
