Rev 1 of my IN-12 Nixie Breakout Board was an abomination. Upon realizing that the nixie footprint that I used for the PCB was completely wrong, I immediately re-spun the board.

OSH Park’s really been picking up the pace lately. I had these PCBs in a week.



Once again, the Thinking Putty was a lifesaver at holding the nixie nice and straight.



This was a quick 15-minute build. Rev 2 is definitely nicer than rev 1. It’s even a little bit smaller.



I connected the breakout to my breadboard and powered it up.



Boom. It works like a charm. I got it right this time. All ten digits light up when the corresponding pin is grounded on the 10-pin header.



OK, now I can start prototyping...
