*The MCU board support a variety of tubes, such: ZM1042, Z522M, Z566M, Z5220M, ZM1040, Z5660M, B566M, LC-631, IN-14, IN-18, IN-12, IN-8, IN-7, IN-1, IN-2, IN-4, IN-8-2, IN-15, IN-16, IN-17 to use this tubes You need appropriate tubes PCB(s).
**4 tubes clock available only on IN-18 (NCT218 boards), ZM1042, Z522M, Z566M, Z5220M, ZM1040, Z5660M series (NCT566 boards)



Software Features:

  • Clock support many kinds of Nixie tubes (6 tubes [hh:mm:ss] format and 4 tubes [hh:mm]).
  • 12/24 hour format.
  • Date format: DD:MM
  • Unique RGB LEDs backlight with 16,7 million colors.
  • Very easy to switch LEDS off/on.
  • As alarm sound clock uses standard RTTTL (Nokia format) melodies, so You can easy change it. (included songs: mission impossible, we wish you).
  • Easy updating firmware via USB using Arduino IDE.
  • Software based on Arduino sketch, so MCU has Arduino bootloader within.
  • Power On Self-Test (POST): LEDs test, tubes test, input voltage test, sound test.


Hardware Features:

  • Integrated High Voltage Power supply 150 – 220V.
  • ICSP connector for flashing Arduino Bootloader to blank MCU.
  • 3 PWM channels for RGB LEDs 8 bit per channel = 24bit = 16,7 million colors. It can be disabled in the menu (see manual).
  • Test points for testing, adjust and control low and high voltage circuits.
  • Pads for internal buttons and terminals for external buttons.
  • Pads for internal USB connector and terminals for external USB.
  • Terminals for internal and external power connector.
  • Terminals for external and internal buzzer.
  • 2 dots column with separate controls upper and lower dots.
  • Power consumption: 11-14V, 360mA (Recommended power source: voltage 12V, current 1-2A).
  • MCU board NCM107 has world smallest size: 100mmx50mm.
  • Tubes board NCT412-4 size: 130 mm x 50 mm


Our Benefits: 

  • A special Socket for each pin of IN-12 – easy to change Tubes.
  • Easy to customize firmware under Your own needs, thanks to an open platform – Arduino.
