Re: Is using micro a method of "Cheating" when it comes to electronics?
Some time back I got given a box, that was kind of interesting... Three big (and very thick) boards, each board having three rows of relays on them, and a bunch of other stuff. One row was 24V coils,

Yeah they do. I forget where but do a search on "homebrew CPU webring" and you'll find some people that IMNTBHO are really *crazy*... :-D -- Member of the toughest, meanest, deadliest, most

I expect some company somewhere that didn't use it, then someone got them for free or very cheap and offered them on ebay for him to buy (or he might have been that person skipping ebay). ST

Re: Is using micro a method of "Cheating" when it comes to electronics?
heh. Op-amps aren't cheating. They are often the easiest way to get things done, but they aren't cheating. My senior project had a bunch of the things. I used a few of them to take the signal from an

Re: Is using micro a method of "Cheating" when it comes to electronics?
If it works, it's not cheating. Do what works for you. It can be argued that it isn't the most elegant solution, or that it isn't the most efficient use of resources. Still, if it works, and you can

These days using a microcontroller in an electronic circuit is the prefered method, at least in the commercial world. A microcontroller lowers the part count and therefore the cost of assembly of the
