I am starting to realize that ordering all this stuff is going to be a challenge for me.  If anyone happens to have a shopping list from Mouser, Digikey, or any other US supplier, it would be very helpful.

C24, C25, etc. specifies 100nf but there is not voltage specification on the BOM.  Please tell me what voltage to choose.  Actually, there are numerous caps with no voltage spec.  If there is none, what to choose?
[/quote]
Whene there is no voltage spec, any cap in this package will do. When the voltage spec is important, it is specified.

[quote author="ScotY808"]
For SMD caps, I am choosing X7R which I believe is best?  Also, I am choosing best tolerance, sometimes it is 5% and other times it seems to be 10%.  Is this okay?[/quote]
Caps tolerance is not specified, and not important in this project.

[quote author="ScotY808"]
For C71, I can only find X5R...is this okay?
[/quote]
Just get the best possible part in this package. Nothing more.

Is this okay for C23 and C47?

Again, any tantalum/niobium capacitor in the same package and with the same voltage spec (if specified) will do. There's 3.3V on these, so 99.9% of tantalum capacitors in this package will be OK.

Is this okay for D1, D2, D3, and D4?

Yes.

I am planning to order all 1% resistors but you said in this thread that some must be 0.1% in the signal? path...or something like this.  I am a newbie to electronics and am not certain which these are.  Can you say?
[/quote]
Where it needs to be 0.1%, it is specified as 0.1% on the schematics and in the BOM. If the BOM says 0.1%, the use 0.1%. Use 1% in all other cases.

Thank you, Sparky. I will slowly work my way through the BOM. I apologize in advance as I know there will be many more questions.

I promise this as my humble contribution...once I finish my Mouser order, I will post it here so others like me (especially in the US), will be able to build your controller without too much trouble.

More component questions...for me, it's quite difficult to cross reference these parts.  I am sorry.

Hello there,

This is my version of mouser bom. please check it with maximum care, i haven't sourced any components before this project.
Only component what should be missing is oled screen and it's resistors.

If you have any notes or improvements to this bom please share it with others(me included) so there is no unneeded components on the list.

Some components have been selected based on current availability and others based on minimum order quantity.

1. Read page 61. Some of your questions are answered there.

2. For the remaining questions (after reading page 61 and removing questions that are answeretd there), PLEASE write the part number that you want to replace and the part number you want to replace it with in the thread, not just the designators. Also,direct links to the datasheets will help better than links to the site that sells them.

When written the way it is written now, I will have to open schematics and BOM, to look for the parts, to look for the datasheet, then to go to the mouser site, to look for the link to the datasheet, then read it. Make my work easier, and you will have my answers sooner. ;)

Okay, I understand...thank you.

For the board connectors (header pins, 1x2x4.2, etc.) what type/series connector is this?  I'm having trouble searching for the correct parts.

Datasheet is not useful here.  These are board lock type but must not be the correct type.

@ScotY808, please check my bom from mouser and see if there's anything you need

It is the same part. Low leakage and reverse voltage are the important specs.

There are 2 porision 1 row and 2 position 2 row connectors in the project. "1x2x4.2" means "1 row, 2 positions, 4.2mm pitch", 2x2x4.2 means "2 rows, 2 positions, 4.2mm pitch".

The first link you gave is to 4 position, 2 row (8 pins total), and the second link is to 2 position, 2 row (4 pins total). Both have side "legs" that you don't need.

2 pin connectrors are 39-28-1023:

4 pin coinnectors are 39-28-1043:

Hello seeker,
Yes, thank you for posting it!  I was able to find one part using your BOM. I found some things that maybe are wrong though. 1N4007 is not SMD. The connectors I think are not for PCB mounting.

Thank you, sparkybg!  I will continue on with the ordering process later today when I go home.

Like stated earlier, please post back your findings, I didn't understood that connectors should be smd, will look another ones another time.

There are no SMD connectors in the project. All connectors are through-hole.

Thanks that saved a lot of my time

Edit: Has anybody else noticed that if i upload BOM to mouser it find whatever components it wants. And i even used mousers own product numbers so i really don't get why it finds what ever it wants to.

And after I select to buy from BOM, there's still some weird components, like capacitors happens to be extra costly diodes.

Hello seeker,

I can say that Mouser's search function is terrible. It does many strange things. I haven't made much progress today but will certainly share when I am finished. Quite a lot more to do though.

I should clarify what I said earlier. Your 1N4007 is not SMD but it needs to be. Your header connectors are for wire connections. They need to be for PCB mounting, through hole as sparky said.

I received my PCB set in the mail today. It is smaller than I imagined it would be!
