Interfacing the chip with a PIC microcontroller. The mouse shown contains the ADNS-2051 sensor. I removed the microcontroller and rewired the cord for power and the I2C bus. text/html 2014-11-13T18:50:14+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://www.photonicsguy.ca/projects/electronics/x10?rev=1415904614&do=diff X10 Interfacing X10 Mini Timer power supply The LCD display seems to die after a few years (on three units I've used) so I figured out the pinout. 4N35's are used internally for opto-isolation, The power is from a transformer internally, with a rectifier and a capacitor. text/html 2014-11-13T18:50:14+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://www.photonicsguy.ca/projects/electronics/50a5vpowersupply?rev=1415904614&do=diff 50 Amp 5 Volt Power Supply Need a 208.76 ohm, 1% resistor to set the 5V output.
