Some might argue life is at the beach, but no blinky is a sin.

 Big news...
TLC5941NT works like a charm.... You can use it...
just finished 2 MR16 and this is fantastic....

You can also use : 521-TCH4000-X (Mouser) as oscillator 40 Mhz, works too.

Very surprised about Mouser : order placed day1 and delivery appened Day3 in France by Fedex (free shipment and free customs too).

Happy user...

Cheers... Henri

Hi John,
On their disclamer, Mouser send for free uper 60€ in the basket.
Also their take in charge the customs costs...

So very good for foreign country and customers like me...

This is the second time in 15days i placed an order and it was simply Perfect and Fast.

I still get the parts for the DMX dongle....

Waiting now for the Boards on just finished coop...

Actually for the tests, i used a compatible DMX enttec dongle to work on.

Hope so...
One ting is sure, the TCL 5040-NT is really out of production....
The last items will be deliverered hasardously...

So let's go to 5041-NT.....

By the way, still old component...

As today, LED is the more convenient....

Why don't adapt the schematics to newest one?

Agree 110v or 220v matches with commun bubs...

But think to save the planet... Low consuption is better for you and your bullet, even for christmas...

this year,will be for me 100% LED. and i'm building my own led strips with molds and transparent resign...

I will post as it's ready...

Cheers... Henri

Well Mouser must have finally got the TLC5940NT in stock because I got a shipping notification today that my back order of them has shipped. There website is still showing them as on order until 4/5, but they must have received some of them. Just have to wait and see when they come.

Five months and eight slipped shipping date emails later, I, too, got an unexpected notification from Mouser.  Parts will be here tomorrow.  I had given up hope.  One small consolation -- Mouser paid the shipping charges.

Ditto on the surprise shipment notification - from an order placed last September.

Since the TLC5940NT is available again, is that the better driver to use on the MR-16 board?

I've run the same sequence side-by-side with two Lynx MR16 boards, one with the 40 and one with the 41, and they look exactly the same to me.

I would say save the 11 cents and go with the 41. ...

I noticed that the Oscillator (Mouser 520-TCH4000-X) that is listed on the BOM for the MR16 was also used on the DMX Dongle ver 1.0.  It has been replaced by a new part (Mouser 815-ACH-40-EK) on the DMX Dongle ver 2.0.  Can anyone confirm if this new, and less expensive, part (815-ACH-40-EK) can be used on the MR16s.  Thanks

You may be looking at an older BOM.  The part 815-ACH-40-EK is on the current BOM, etc.
