TL022 dual op amp in an 8-pin DIP package. The TL022 is a dual low-power operational amplifier designed to replace higher power devices in many applications without sacrificing system performance. High input impedance, low supply currents, and low equivalent input noise voltage over a wide range of operating supply voltages result in an extremely versatile operational amplifier for use in a variety of analog applications including battery-operated circuits.

The 1N34A Germanium diode is an old standby in electronics. Widely used for detecting the rectifying efficiency or for switching on a radio, TV or stereo etc.

CD4021B series types are 8-stage parallel- or serial-input/serial output registers having common CLOCK and PARALLEL/SERIAL CONTROL inputs, a single SERIAL data input, and individual parallel "JAM" inputs to each register stage. Each register stage is D-type, master-slave flip-flop. In addition to an output from stage 8, "Q" outputs are also available from stages 6 and 7. In the CD4021B serial entry is synchronous with the clock by parallel entry is asynchronous. Entry is controlled by the PARALLEL/SERIAL CONTROL input. When the PARALLEL/SERIAL CONTROL input is low, data is serially shifted into the 8-stage register synchronously with the positive transition of the clock line. When the PARALLEL/SERIAL CONTROL input is high, data is jammed into the 8-stage register via the parallel input lines and synchronous with the positive transition of the clock line.

Prewired low-profile LED bezel with a diffused LED. With a 0.07” height, this black metal LED bezel has an almost flush appearance on the panel it’s mounted to. An internal current limiting resistor is installed in this bezel and it can be used with voltages up to 12VDC. Mounting nut and rubber o-ring included.

Switchcraft Type 11 Little-Jax phone jack. Mono 2-conductor, open circuit. Mates with standard ¼" plugs and is available with standard or long bushings. Great replacement for Fender® guitar & amp input jacks.

ACY31 PNP germanium transistors. The ACY31 is a popular PNP for fuzz pedals and other effects. The ACY31 can be found in the rare CSL Super Fuzz version of the MKIV Tone Bender. This transistor is in a TO-1 package with long leads commonly found on germanium transistors.

Large 6.02” x 3.27” x 1.98” Hammond 1590P1 enclosures. This enclosure is a great option for dense builds and is a popular choice for vintage style fuzz pedals with plenty of room for point to point wiring.

• Rugged, diecast aluminum alloy (tough yet easy to machine), electronic instrument enclosure.
• Lap joint construction provides protection against access of dust and splashing water. Also provides for improved EMI/RFI shielding.
• Vibra finished for a smooth surface with no sharp edges.
• Four 6-32 x ½" machine screws secure lid - into tapped holes.
• Designed to meet IP54.
• Low side wall draft angle (2 degrees or less) for easy P.C. board mounting.
• Dimensions shown are exterior dimensions.
• Add 0.16" to enclosure depth for lid.

Heavy duty wire strippers with additional cutting and crimping features. Capable of stripping 12 through 24AWG stranded wires and 10 through 22AWG solid wires, these strippers can handle most wires used in electronics.

#6-32 threading, package of 4. Comes in 1/2" or 3/4". For male to female standoffs, see S-H170X

High quality chassis mount battery holder with a built-in connector. This clip fits standard 9V batteries. The horizontal mount and small footprint of the holder allows for easy placement where vertical space is limited. The two connections use individual solder tabs for hard wiring directly into projects providing a rugged and stable connection.

The XVive MN3009 is a drop-in replacement for the original Panasonic 256-stage MN3009 BBD chip used in many chorus, vibrato, and flanger pedals and effects. The MN3009 is a 256-stage BBD that boasts a wide dynamic range and low distortion. Its signal delay of up to 12.8 milliseconds makes it a perfect choice for vibrato and/or chorus effects in electronic musical instruments.

Single standard snap-on 9V battery clip. Features six inch pre-stripped and pre-tinned leads for an easy connection.

Good stomp-box effects switch (Triple Pole, Double Throw). 3PDT Latching type footswitch. Made in Taiwan.

Zero ohm (0Ω) resistors in a carbon film axial package. These resistors are a similar size to most common 1/4W carbon film and metal film resistors. Zero ohm resistors are useful as pcb jumpers as well as point to point jumpers. These can also be useful for true bypass 3PDT wiring.

Bourns trimmer adjustment tool. This tool is compatible with both the R-VT96Y-X multiturn trimmers and the R-VT62P-X single turn trimmers. The recessed end is especially helpful when used with the 3296Y trimmers to avoid slipping off of the screw adjuster. Features
