oKay, I'm jumping into the fray.

Today I got my 33920's, 510 ohm resistor, misc. filter caps, LCD (hopefully works), RJ45 socket (for OBD interface), voltage regulator... I'm going to use a thumbduino for the micro. Later, I'll get a $5 alarm clock, to harvest the tactile switches...

I'm going to focus on OBD->Laptop data logging... While not exactly novel, I can't find the metrics I want. Hopefully, my programming skills are close to what is necessary to follow the code I really can't complain about features if I'm not contributing


One question


The 2n3906... What is that doing? It's the only component I'm missing....
