Blank Eurorack panels

For Blank Eurorack Front Panels

These panels are really great, and easy to drill holes in because they are not aluminum! And they are stylish!

Great Product - Well Documented And Thoughtfully Packaged

For Teensy 3.5/3.6 Breakout (Revision A, DIP-64)

I'm a total beginner at electronics, as a hobby, but I guess that's a testament to the quality of the product and the documentation. This is quite literally the first thing I've ever soldered in my life (outside of a few wires to breakaway headers as a makeshift breadboard power plug and a few solder jumpers on an Arduino shield) and it turned out great. Used this product plus the matching socket kit, and I couldn't be happier with the results. Works great, does exactly what it says on the label, and the documentation was really good. Be sure to refer to the card that comes with your Teensy if you're confused about which traces to cut during the assembly process.

I can recommend this product as whole-heartedly as I can recommend that you not make this your first soldering project, especially if you're doing it on your coffee table while sitting on your couch, hunched over, as you learn to solder for 2 hours :-). That being said, it's definitely approachable for a beginner if you're careful. Everything about this kit was professional, and I would not hesitate to buy from Tall Dog in the future. Excellent design, good packaging, fast shipping, printed documentation with a clear depiction of the parts - seems like they thought of everything.

Excellent for getting the best out of your Teensy

For Teensy 3.2 Breakout (Revision D)

I bought a Teensy 3.2 from OSH Park years ago but I could never set it up easily. This kit brings absolutely everything out ready for breadboarding. I am building this into my production system.

Read the instructions before starting. You need a good soldering iron with a fine tip. A flux pen would have been useful but I didn't have one.

A solid product as with his previous breakout boards

For Teensy 4.0 Breakout (Revision A)

I purchased the assembled version. It is a well designed and
built product, as was the case with his breakout boards for
earlier teensy versions. It is very convenient to have the
expanded connectivity to all the processor'capabilities.

Perfect for a tight spot!

For Panel-Mount USB Jacks

I have a project controlled by a Teensy 3.2, and needed to bring its USB connection out to a rear panel. I tried several off-the-shelf USB to bulkhead/panel extensions, but all the ones I could find were too long or the cabling too thick/heavy.

These jacks were perfect -- I was able to use them to hand-assemble the needed extensions with a lightweight donor USB cable for the Teensy end and one of these jacks at the rear panel end. And I was able to make the length just right!

Thanks, and I highly recommend these jacks!

Some Tips

For Teensy 3.5/3.6 Socket Kit

I bought this kit and the Teensy Arduino breakout board (https://www.tindie.com/products/loglow/teensy-3536-breakout-revision-a-uno/), both from Tall Dog. I was happily surprised about the excellent quality of the manual and the packaging. The breakout board even came with nicely printed card with all the connections, that matches the picture on Tindie.

My Teensy 3.5 already had headers installed, and though that helped with the mounting of the surface mount headers from the Socket Kit (because I could use a female header to hold everything in place while soldering), it was also a curse: The Socket Kit is designed to let the Teensy sit closer to the PCB, and the longer pins on my Teensy "bottomed out" before the pins from the Socket Kit could mate with their sockets. So I had to cut all the existing headers down a bit. If I would have known, I would have bought another Teensy without headers, and kept the existing one for breadboard use.

The pogo pins were a bit of a pain too. It would have been great if the holes in the PCB would have been just a fraction smaller so the pogo pins would have been in there tightly and wouldn't have moved around so much. Or it would have been nice if there would have been a template (e.g. a piece of acrylic or a small circuit board or even cardboard) to put over the pogo pins and hold them in place while soldering.

The kit includes two sets of headers for the 5-pin (and 4-pin) through-hole connections. One set lets you just create headers on the bottom and one set has you end up with pins sticking out both the bottom and the top of the Teensy circuit board. I thought it was a great idea to do the double-sided headers, but unfortunately I didn't realize that this would mean that there would not be enough clearance for a shield. No big deal, I'll just have to get some extension headers for shields but it would be nice if the manual of the Socket Kit had warned me about this.

All in all, I like both kits and I may order more if I get more Teensy's.

Fantastic, can't rate highly enough

For Teensy 3.5/3.6 Breakout (Revision A, Due)

I loved the teensy 3.6, so much power, but such a faff off a form factor. I was yearning to use my existing arduino shields. Then along comes the Due breakout board!

Such a great kit with everything you need and well written instructions.

My teensy projects just got a whole lot easier.

Thanks very much
Keep up the good work

Enables compact implementation of Teensy 3.5

For Teensy 3.5/3.6 Breakout (Revision A, Standard)

I'm relatively new to electronics and have found in the past that soldering can be challenging (for me) - so was a little daunted reading some of the reviews. I reviewed the kit's instructions carefully and was very pleasantly surprised by the way that my Teensy 3.5 assembled to this breakout without any complications. I am replacing an Arduino Mega (and separate card reader) in a robotics project and will need access to both sides of the Teensy 3.5 - this breakout seems like the best way to do that.

Arduino on STEROIDS!

For Teensy 3.5/3.6 Socket Kit

Brings a level of capabilities beyond standard Arduino boards. I have opted to install a Teensy 3.5 to allow me to use 5 volt shields. Definitely get the socket kit - saves grief later on if you happen to damage the Teensy board.

Perfect dev kit setup for teensy

For Teensy 3.5/3.6 Socket Kit

Do you want breadboard-able access to all the weird little pads and pins available on the teensy? Yeah sure you do! Do you suck at soldering? No, cool. With some patience, a steady soldering iron, and this kit (as well as the other one) you can do all that dev stuff you've been dreaming of with the teensy. And if you screw it up, you've only yourself to blame 'cause this kit is solid.

An outstanding device I continue to fun with.

For TinyFPGA BX Breakout (Revision A)

I have been playing with this idea to create a solid-state MFM hard drive like the ST-138-1 for a long time. After several attempts, I finally realized I needed the power of an FPGA to modulate and demodulate between data and MFM. I started with the ICE Stick and then discovered Icestudio. From there I learned about the TinyFPGA BX board. I designed an I2C interface that runs beautifully at a rate of 1/2 the clock frequency which is well beyond what any I2C device can run at. But I wanted those extra connections, especially that hard SPI interface and found the TinyFPGA BX Breakout board here on Tindie. Now I can get full use of the Tiny FPGA. I highly recommend the TinyFPGA BX Breakout board.

Very useful and well thought out board

For Teensy 3.5/3.6 Breakout (Revision A, Standard)

I have not traced ever connection so i am just assuming that there are no errors on the board. works well in everything tested so far. it is really useful to have all the pins available. i put sockets on my board and everything aligned well enough to do this. i used very strong sockets so i hope i can get the board off if i ever need to. since this will most likely be necessary only if the teensy fails i am not too concerned. i wanted to have screw terminals on my board so i soldered them on the bottom as recommended and they fit. it is very convenient to have silk screen on both sides of the board so you can identify locations by reference the side of the board that is not covered with headers etc.

Martin | Dec. 26, 2017

Lovely Breakout

For Teensy 3.5/3.6 Breakout (Revision A, Standard)

Ah! I love it a lot, now i can easily access a lot of the pads on my 3.5. It may be too much choice but it's exactly what I wanted and had nice and excellent documentation included. If you need to get to all those pins and pads on your teensy, this is the board!

Kurt | Nov. 18, 2017

Nice board for prototyping also nice to have USB Host.

For Teensy 3.5/3.6 Breakout (Revision A, Standard)

This is a nice little board that allows you to use most if not all of the IO pins of the Teensy 3.5 and 3.6

This board is also nice for those who wish to experiment with the USB Host support of the Teensy 3.6 as it both has a connector to allow you to plug in your USB device, it also has IO pins that make it easy to hook up an analyzer.

Few remarks

For Teensy 3.5/3.6 Breakout (Revision A, DIP-64)

Excellent product, you have to solder carefully, but the result is there !!!! with this kit it's possible to connect to all the hardware resources of the teensy 3.6

Dave | April 18, 2017

Works great!

For Switching Breadboard Power Supply

I've used this on several breadboard projects, both 5v and 3v, and it works great. Super handy when you need to try your prototype somewhere away from your bench power supply.

Great!

For Teensy 3.5/3.6 Socket Kit

I was really surprised at how well documented and packaged this kit was.

I expected a manila envelope with some printed paper, but I got a nice card and pinout diagram. Super impressed!

Perfect bridge between proof of concept and prototype!

For Teensy 3.5/3.6 Breakout (Revision A, Standard)

Having one Teensy 3.6 mounted with all pins readily accessible without having to spend all your time soldering temporary breakouts is really great. This board makes it so much easier to quickly test running all six UARTs or all four I2Cs if you're feeling up to it. The savings in time pays back in your first use and the board will continue to same more through all following prototyping projects.

Michael | Jan. 17, 2017

I love these breakout boards

For Teensy 3.2 Breakout (Revision B, Standard)

The documentation is detailed and easy to follow - rare for this business. I am a total amateur but the quality of the PCB looks high. The board works perfectly and I have breadboarded with it using every single I/O pin.
I must say that I now prefer the breakout board, rev. C because: 1. the usb-Vin switch is on top and 2. the rev.B board is very wide and covers all the holes on my breadboard making insertion of breadboard wires difficult.
Excellent product.

David | Jan. 4, 2017

It's a great little kit

For Teensy 3.2 Breakout (Revision B, Standard)

I finished assembling my Teensy 3.2 Breakout (Revision B, Standard) kit and it went smoothly. The directions are well written, complete, and easy to follow. The PCB is top quality as are the other parts. I just wish I hadn't already soldered headers on my Teensy 3.6 or I would have one coming for it too.

Good idea that works perfectly. Well executed.

For Teensy 3.2 Breakout (Revision A)

Teensy has been my "go to" microcontroller for small/medium projects for several years starting at the 3.0 version. At times I wish I was able to use the extra pins for a couple more inputs or outputs but it was inconvenient to get to those underside pins. This breakout board solved that problem very well. And the result is still proto boardable with a spare row of pins on each side. The board was well engineered and nicely documented. It took me about an hour to assemble one. So far my testing has been successful. Good job. Thanks!

Response from Tall Dog | Sept. 1, 2016

I went through the same sequence of events and found myself frustrated with soldering little wires onto the bottom pads. Glad I could make things easier for you Maurice! Thanks so much for leaving a review.
