Let's talk about buying electronic components on the Internet. I have compiled a list of interesting domestic and foreign stores:
a) who are sharpened by DIY lovers and make their own cool products: designers, modules, training courses, etc .;
b) for pros, with a wide range of electronic components.
Note: the author is in no way associated with the stores listed below. All information is taken from official sites, or is the personal impressions of the author. The estimate of the number of positions in the assortment is taken from the request to Google.Range:
- ~ 600 + positions.
- Arduino (original) and compatible boards.
- Single cards Raspberry Pi and BBC micro: bit.
- Shields and modules, prototyping boards, displays, sensors, mechanics, radio components, etc.
- Ready sets for beginners.
What is interesting shop:
- Iskra JS’s own line of Javascript-programmable boards and mechanically compatible with Arduino.
- Own line of Troyka modules with ready strapping in a standard form factor, which allow beginners to assemble devices without soldering on Arduino, Iskra or Raspberry Pi.
- Educational kits for beginners with documentation in Russian, incl. Robonyasha
- Wiki with examples and video .
Range:
- Large assortment - ~ 16,000 items, much is in stock.
- Passive components: resistors, capacitors, chokes, etc.
- Integrated Circuits.
- Sensors.
- Boards STM32, PIC32, ESP8266, Arduino, Raspberry Pi and others, programmers, shields and related components.
The store is interesting with a good assortment of microcontrollers and single board computers. In addition to the above, Onion's line of DFRobot products is sold in Russia.
- A good range of radio components - more than 30,000 positions.
- There are consumables, chemicals, tools, all kinds of quartz.
- Soviet radio components: radio tubes, measuring heads, etc.
There are two retail outlets in Moscow: one at 4 bus stops from Metro Elektrozavodskaya, the second - right by the metro Shosse Entuziastov. In the store you can consult.
Despite the fact that most of the areas are occupied by iPhone and vape dealers, and the “wild” market has long been torn down, something interesting can be found on Mitinsky:
- There are Profi siriust.ru shops on the ground and first floors - they sell tools, soldering equipment, machines, consumables for DIY, creative kits, etc.
- The whole basement is interesting, you can buy electronic components, cables, tools, electrics, chemicals, ferrites, ionistors, etc.
- And on the top, third floor they sell / buy second-hand radio components. However, there are also pavilions selling new components, connectors, batteries, etc.
You can go to the market on weekends, only early, in my opinion, by five or six in the evening, sellers begin to diverge. The lack of a market is that it is located outside the Moscow Ring Road and is far from the subway.
Advantages and disadvantages:
- A very, very large assortment - 85,000+ items, i.e. there is everything. Running usually available, something - under the order.
- In addition to the components in M & D, there is a sale of tools, various consumables, cut cables, housings, power supplies, and so on.
- There are retail outlets in 21 cities of Russia and one in Minsk. The stores have well-designed display cases with components, you can consult the sellers. Work on weekends.
- The minus follows from the previous plus: when they talk about Chip and Dip, they always remember about high prices - the store has to pay for the rent of premises.
In fact, not everything is expensive here, I recommend to compare prices in advance and look at the situation. Recently I bought a holder from them for
30% cheaper than
in China .
Freeduino is an open source, fully Arduino-compatible board and shield. On the site you can buy them in finished form and in the form of sets for assembly. There are interesting things, for example,
Freeduino MaxSerial - Arduino with RS-232 interface.
