I did a micro project that I wanted to do for a long time. In my first prototype projects I used old nixie drivers e.g. 74141 but finally the time has come for something new.

10 outputs for connecting the nixie tube cathodes (K0-K9)
300V off-state maximum output voltage
Compatible with all 5V / 3.3V designs
Easy to use with Arduino or Raspberry Pi etc. (only 3 control lines)
The drivers can be connected in series

Nice!

There's only one thing I wish you could add since you have unused outputs on the 595's - add transistors for those outputs too so a B5971 or a Nixie with decimal points can be used. The footprint would have to be changed of course but for those who want these extras maybe that wouldn't be a problem.

Nice that you have a 22 output version planned!

Any information on its footprint yet?

Probably twice a big as the first version.

In a few weeks I will publish more about it.

I’ve been trying for nearly two weeks to order these, but they’re out of stock still. Know when they are back?
