Overview

Nixie proj conflict-20171112-163801 is an open-source printed circuit board by dm2lct, from the dm2lct/tlnixie repository on GitHub, published under the GPL-3.0 licence. It is a 2-layer board of 147.3 × 95.3 mm with 117 parts on 109 nets, routed with 1,233 tracks and 118 vias.

It is built around the ESP-12E, FT232RL and MAX1771CPA+, with the HV5530PG-G, DS3231S# and LM1117-3.3 among its other parts. Its parts include 38 resistors, 20 capacitors, 16 transistors, 8 ICs and 8 diodes. It belongs with the lEDs and displays boards and the ESP8266 boards of this library.

Schematics and PCB files for the Turmlabor nixie clock kit.

Attention: This is a old, buggy version! See the new design on https://github.com/ludwig1992/Nixieclock_kit

Feel free to build your own nixie clock from it.

Features:

  • IN14 nixie tubes but you can adapt many other nixie tubes even if it would not look great
  • ESP12e controller so you can make IoT with it and build your own botnet for world domination if you have enough clocks
  • DS3231 RTC for everyone who does not like IoT and does also not want to be enslaved from AI
  • WS2812B under each nixie tube to make them look more fancy
  • runs from a simple USB charger
  • you can program the controller with your Arduino IDE over USB

But in this version there are a few known issues:

  • wrong footprint of U201 and U202, it should be PQFP44, but of any reason we put TQFP44 on this board. You can solder it but it's not fun.
  • wrong wiring of U403, you need to wire pin 10 and 11 to pin 18 and 19 and move VCC from pin 18 to pin 20.
  • the high voltage power supply does not work as good as it is supposed to be. This might be a problem with the low input voltage of about 5V
