"You have until September 14th, 12:00 AM CDT to submit your completed project!"

You're a real pesssimist, Jan - we've got plenty of time for the DIY Test Equipment. Peter's circuit works ok, it just needs a bit of tweeking here and there. Don't worry, we'll get you to the finish line in time.

Having said that, I've stalled on building your board. When I ordered the parts, Farnell thought they had one of the voltage reference chips in stock. When I got the delivery, it turned out they were wrong and the part is on back order - they're currently predicting November. [I don't know why you didn't use the SOIC, it would have made the assembly easier too.] You've just reminded me that I was supposed to be looking around to see if I could find somewhere else to buy it from or a substitute part.

OK, OK, I get the hint, time to get it moving again [View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/commentfiles/f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07-be5b6b42-8599-4a20-95a3-0afaffad7c9c/contentimage_5F00_1.png:16:16]
