PART FINDER FRIDAY – TVP5150AM1 – TI Ultra low-power NTSC/PAL/SECAM video decoder
PART FINDER FRIDAY! TVP5150AM1 – TI Ultralow-power NTSC/PAL/SECAM video decoder. These chips are what drive the small NTSC/PAL displays we have in the store (such as http://adafruit.com/products/912). They’re kind of neat in that they ‘do it all’ – decode PAL/NTSC analog signal and pipe out 8 bit color, HSYNC, VSYNC and PCLK. This chip could be handy for a fast microcomputer/processor video system that can handle the high speed data.
All this and more in the part finder!
Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat – we’ll post the link there.

This would be really good for hooking up one of those cheap security camera type things to a microcontroller.
