Has anyone designed a sma or smb or bnc arduino shield for µManager? If it doesn't exist, I am thinking of making a smb shield using the Analog pins 0-5. Digital Pins 8-13, and Digital pin 2, which is what µManager uses, and pass through 3,4,5....
Maybe put a spot for a TLV5618A...
Haere rā,

I’d be game to strip the DAC stuff down off the triggerscope to make a simple shield. Maybe using a 3d printed case. Think there is interest?

I don't want to create work for you but I think this should exist for simple microscope projects that need to use simple TTL signals to drive shutters/lasers. I have two projects at the moment that could use it.
I was thinking of making a shield as a lid to a 3D printed case, or maybe an Arduino case that already exists. I made bnc lid for the ITC18 a few years back and it has worked well: https://oshpark.com/shared_projects/q1J6vZti

Just revisiting this.
Any preference of Arduino device? I’ve been considering the newest Teensy 4.0 for this as it’s unbelievably fast.
I can cook up an SMA connector shield for this.

That is fast. To me it is a question of size and form factor. There could be up to 16 BNC, SMA or SMB connectors on the shield plus space for the dual DAC TI 5618 chip + plus capacitors/resistors.
I am thinking of using SMB since they would be easier to package into a smaller form factor. Skyra laser that I am working with uses SMB. The smaller the PCB, the cheaper it will be to make.

The driver for the NicoLase is close to what you're asking for. It's an Arduino Uno BNC shield that can be used to drive up to 8 TTL-triggered devices (10 if you don't mind mucking around with firmware). Can be run in MicroManager as a serial shutter or filter wheel. PCB is ~$26 for Qty 3 from OSH Park and another $10-20 in parts to populate.
Working on a 8 x DAC shield that will stack with the BNC board. Something I might get finished in the next couple of months.

Rusty,
NicoLaser is indeed close enough! You even have a BOM. Think about using Instrumentation Op Amps + Sallen Key low pass filter into your DAC shield.
74HC4050D appears to be EOL at mouser but 74HC4050D,652 is available. I think everything else is easy.
Much appreciated!
