Sorry for the thread revival. Any updates after all this time?

We had another builder who built one a few years ago, but couldn't get it to stabilize. I never took the chance to go back to it after that, unfortunately.

Ahhh, no worries. Thanks for looking at it. When you say stabilise, do you mean oscillation? or a different factor?

Oscillation.

I have a couple of Ver. .28 boards. Would it be worthwhile trying to build one?

Mine oscillated as well. Tomb, it’s surprising no one has just put out another board like the Tread. I’d use them fairly often. Small, tidy, and worked well. I know there are some others out there, but they’re slightly larger and cost more to build.

Agreed.

Maybe we'll do something about that.

If I could focus long enough to learn Kicad or Diptrace I’d just lay one out exactly like the Tread and make my own. I can lay one out on perfboard, but it’s a hassle.

Thanks!
Tread was nice little board. There's always Ti's Sigma 25 and 26.
Just came across the boards, I bought them just before I got sick.

Yep. Twisted Pear has a few as well. The nice thing about the TREAD was you could get the board and build it for less than just the boards from the alternatives.
