Official Sparky Thread - Sparky Jr USB

i am trying to work out a silk and soldermask color scheme with a supplier. the color scheme is just me changing the layer properties in Eagle

:slight_smile: great stuff, I like it very much. :slight_smile: your PCB layout is absolute awesome!

And with 20 pin header finally TEasy, Dual Strike can benefit from a Plug and Play LED Controller. :sunglasses: Thanks!

Thanks. Although I did just realize the silk for the auxiliary ± are the wrong way around. The one to the left of the logo. Will fix and update

looking good… ZIP TIE SLITS!!! :smiley:

primary thread now the updates thread!

original first thread moved to second thread (this is the one with all the links and images)

don’t forget to read the first post.
we have a contest going on now

name this and WIN!

http://sparky.32teeth.org/010.png

what happended to the contest? i thought we were to name it and then it would get voted on and a winner selected that way, now im seeing poll…and well you can up come with better names than those…i was thinking more like SparkShine…those other names names dont really stand out to me and i hate to be honest a lil one the lame side :expressionless:

i think the whole concept is brilliant. i kinda of see whats going on here, and if my mental juices are flowing properly than i can surmise that the sparky jr, dual strike (or other newer -strike devices), this connector board, and well this maybe a long shot…but i just got a feeling that the 2.0 arcs – are all being setup for plug and play, more or less to cater to the babies that dont want it any other way. if you guys can pull it off, 2011 will be a great year for us modders. i love the synergy that going on between you guys and how everyone is working well together. if this is the case then i may have to rethink what i am going to do my mod. good shit as usual

anyways…10 hour shifts at work and the blizzard have been kicking my ass this week but…i got some very nice visual PWN goodness for you very soon :slight_smile: and the “unnamed” board not very far behind it :smiley:

Nice one Shin, Spark Shine! How about Shin Splint?
The suggestions came through PMs.

Sounds like you have been a busy cat!

BTW? Anyone know how to edit polls in posts?

Here are 3 very pretty renders of what is and what’s coming up

Sparky Jr as you know it now

Sparky Jr with PWM and 20 pin connector

Sparky ‘Connector’ (still not named - see contest below)

about editting the polls, i kno the forums mods cant even edit them, because kyle was talking about that in the vote for new moderator thread, so i think you may be sol on that…

well i was think about the name two ways, with spark some how incorporated into it, or just a new name all together. the new non-spark name i thought of was Zenith. i kno it makes you think about really old school tvs, but if you kno the actual definition, i think its pretty appropriate :slight_smile: SparkShine was influenced from Metriod’s Shine Spark and made think of how the Sparky boards (with new and easier connectivity options) will add the Shine to new and upcoming mods…how about ShinSpark…jk lmfao

nice renders you got there champ, but im just going to say im sorry for 1-upping those in a couple days :slight_smile:

@purps, i kno you are lurking around lol thanx for adding me xbl, i see you on there like everynight, i will be challenging you soon, but it sucks to get that setup and going since, my x-arcade doesnt have functional guide button setup nor mic…

lol np… i just finished all ssf4 achievements on xbox (in addition to ps3) which was difficult cause i’m temporarily living at my parents home with shitty laggy internet… so my timing is totally messed up playing 35 characters… and to cap it off, i got steamrolled by Air himself while trying to level up my last character (shitty guile) for c to shining c… (not that any of my mains can beat him lol)… and tonite i got smashed in sf4 remix by my 4000pp friend… gotta take a ssf4 break for a while then try to get my bearings back lol…
