LinuxCNC-RIO - RealtimeIO for LinuxCNC based on FPGA (ICE40 / ECP5)

i prefer to calculate a little more and then also incl. fast shipping and small quantities


EDIT:
I should also say that this is just a hobby, I have no intention of marketing the boards.

if someone in DE (or maybe EU) wants one, i can send it at cost price, i just can never order a single one.

AliExpress is pretty cheap ATM for the W5500 boards, the blue ones with yellow connector. I think I’ve seen the little square ones for about $4-5 AUD, which equates to 2-3 magic beans.

I know it is weird, no trouble buying dev boards and such from AliExpress but when it comes to individual components Digikey or Mouser is my go to if my local electronics place doesn’t have them. I’ve given up on Element14/Farnells an RS as delivery times are just crazy to Oz. Digikey is great, free delivery over $60 AUD and delivery even when ordered on a Friday night or weekend is quick. Usually ask a mate if they need any bits so to keep what I actually have spend down a bit.
With regards to sending PCBs overseas, I’ve generally found the postage from Oz to be about the same what it would cost someone in their home country to order directly from the likes of pcbway or jlcpcb. So I just hand over gerbers.
Sometimes the world seems a bit silly.

Strange, the parts I ordered on Sunday night from Element 14 arrived on Thursday with DHL ex UK. No wonder they don't hold stock here anymore.

I gave up on them after they cancelled my last order with no reason given. Wasn't worth pursuing.
I'd use RS & Element14 more often if they didn't take forever, both of their warehouses are within 20 minutes of where I live. Even still, Digikey or Mouser are quicker.
THB I haven't used either in 2 years as I just got fed up with them.

hopefully tonight i will know if they work
 

one error on the board, but with a little fix, all works fine
