Building Your Own 3D Printer Home-built 3D printers are booming. In 2006 there were no such printers and 5 years later there are tens of thousands. There are currently hundreds of thousands of people wanting to start their own build waiting for the right moment to get started. The project that single-handily propelled home-built 3D printers out of nowhere is RepRap. It’s an open-source project meaning that all the information and design plans you’ll need are available free for all. Building a 3D printer is very hands-on and will require all your technical skills. These are the sections of this book: How a RepRap 3D printer worksParts of the printerA word on the most commonly used plasticsTools and skills requiredSoftware required to run a RepRap 3D printerBuyer’s guideLinks to build instructions This book is not a replacement for build instructions. Image 1 shows a fully assembled working home-built 3D printer. The printer is usually controlled by a PC with special software installed. 9.
OsciPrime - An Open Source Android Oscilloscope open-project/kicadlibrary: bytelabs KiCad device and footprint library A FreeCAD manual FreeCAD is a free, open-source parametric 3D modeling application. It is made primarily to model real-world objects, ranging from the small electronic components up to buildings and civil engineering projects, with a strong focus on 3D-printable objects. FreeCAD is free to download, use, distribute and modify, and its source code is open and published under the very permissive LGPL license. The data you produce with FreeCAD is fully yours, and can be recovered without FreeCAD. FreeCAD is also fundamentally a social project, as it is developed and maintained by a community of developers and users united by their passion for FreeCAD. This manual is an experiment at taking the opposite way from the official FreeCAD documentation wiki. This manual has been written for the current stable version of FreeCAD which is version 0.16. All the contents of this manual are published under the Creative Commons 4.0 license, and can be freely used, downloaded, copied, and modified.
Open-source Lab Open-Source Lab, 1st Edition: How to Build Your Own Hardware and Reduce Research Costs[edit] Free content[edit] FREE access to select content from Open-Source Lab: How to Build Your Own Hardware and Reduce Research Costs. This guide details the development of the free and open-source hardware revolution and provides you with step-by-step instructions on building your own laboratory hardware. In the first two chapters displayed here, the author defines the basic terms of open-source software and discusses the rise of the open-source hardware revolution and how it impacts science before exploring five pragmatic advantages to joining the open-source scientific community for both your research in general, and most importantly, your equipment and instrumentation. Key Features[edit] Description[edit] Open-Source Lab: How to Build Your Own Hardware and Reduce Scientific Research Costs details the development of the free and open-source hardware revolution.

Update (2/1/14): Added the ADM7150/ADM7151 which is now at the top of the pack. Update (01/29/13): Revised the noise density numbers Update (8/27/12): Added the new TI TPS7A4700 regulator to the table. This device can source up to 1 A of current and ranks on top of the list. The table below compares the noise level of some regulators used in current DIY modules vs a new breed of regulators that are used in portable consumer devices such as cell phones. Just like phase noise in clocks, it is difficult to compare noise values among linear regulators because there is no common ground in specifying noise figures. The noise density numbers are taken off the noise density spectra charts in the data sheets (D) or when not available from the datasheet they are calculated (C) in accordance to the relationship presented in the video above. The first two rows are application notes indicating the noise density value of the noise floor.
