How to Buy

Electronic Components
in Nanded
By

Ranvir Desai

Preface
When I was a first year student, I didnt know what a wire was called. It was due to my enthusiastic partners of project in first year Shakti, Sonali, Neha and Robotics for Next Generation Club that I started learning a little bit of electronics. Whenever we needed components, we used to go to RNXG lab and demand for components, but we couldnt find all the components there. So we started to find the component shops in Nanded. We found one where cheap hobby electronic components were available. We followed it for one year till we needed bigger components like a microcontroller chip. We had to order online and thus we took help from seniors to learn about ordering procedure. I followed the lose procedure depicted orally by my seniors Mahesh bhaiyya and Manik bhaiyya who had ordered many components for a line follower workshop I did in first year. As I started working in Innovation Laboratory, I ordered some of the components that I needed along with the common components that anyone I thought might need while doing projects. Then we ordered more components for events like basic electronic (breadboard) workshop in Instrumentation department and in First year. I had ordered 90 kits worth 300 each. By that time ordering components seemed fun and we found some alternatives also. Here Im going to give a detailed procedure that you would like to follow while ordering components for your project or Robot. This manual you about from where you can buy the components, not from where you should. So try to find alternatives which are cheaper, better, quicker and more comfortable than this so that everyone will be benefited.

1.1 Project Design One needs to know what components to be ordered before ordering them. There are certainly types of components and types of shops too. Some components can be bought at the local shops. This doesnt necessarily mean you shouldnt buy them from outside. There are priorities, in most cases its money. Discuss with your team what kind of project youre undertaking, what are the major parts of it, and what are the elements of each part. For more information you dont know which is there, take help of seniors about project design. Once you have a circuit design or a sketch model of your project or robot, show it to a senior or one who has ordered components before so that you know what everything is known as in market.

1.2 Component Estimate You might refer to online shopping websites such as following for name, picture, availability and price of a component. Search in those sites for availability of a particular component. Price is not issue for most of the students. So dont bother comparing too much, but you should compare if you need good service. You might find all the details about the ordering components, but that is later phase. Here is a list of few websites Ive visited and used for ordering components. www.vishaworld.com www.robokits.co.in www.vegarobokit.com www.in.element14.com www.digibay.in www.simplelabs.co.in www.embeddedmarket.com 1.3 List It is the hardest part of ordering components. You need to prepare a list of components which will include all the components in one place such as resistors in resistor category and motors, wheels, etc. in hardware category. Ive given some of the lists that Ive got in reply from Visha Electronics Mumbai. You may refer the lists for any components price as follows. They are old like 1 to 2 years but it hardly matters for some components.

The list I sent last year in January 13 for Workshop by RNXG.

With this recent list, we end the list topic. By now you may be clear with the concept of list, why we need to prepare a list for a project. I am very glad to let you know that feels great when you order components of your friends, and it feels greater to tell them the procedure to be followed by them.

2.1 Local Shops There are many local shops where you can buy resistors, capacitors and 7805s because theyre available in the power supplies of consumer electronics. FM electronics keeps the large collection of electronic components which can be used by engineering students for projects. You might not find logic ICs like AND gate or particular components like crystal oscillator. If youre doing one of the speaker project or a 555 project, it is best you go to local shops. It is a quick option for buying components. Im giving google map images for two shops in Nanded Vazirabad Area for FM Electronics, and Vinayak Electronics. FM Electronics is underground shop at Mahaveer Chowk. You will get the address if you ask about it at some nearby shop. You can buy resistors, capacitors, speakers, sensors, etc. Vinayak Electonics is 3rd or 4th Shop in Paper Market in Gurudwara Chowk. You can buy speaker, IC 555, LEDs, resistors, capacitors, 7805, etc. Ganesh Electonics is on the way from FM electronics to Gandhi Putala. You can buy the different sockets, cables and wires from there. Mumbai: if your friends or relatives are in Mumbai, there is a market or electronic components on Lamington Road. You can buy almost everything you need in an electronic project or bot there. Not available on Sundays. Hyderabad: you can take a one day visit to Hyderabads Koti Market. There you may find components of RC aero plane to pick and place robot at Gujrati Galli. Available on Sundays. Passenger train to Hyderabad is one cheaper (Rs. 40) option for night travel.

2.2 Online Shops Heres a list of online shops: www.vishaworld.com www.robokits.co.in www.vegarobokit.com www.in.element14.com www.digibay.in www.simplelabs.co.in Visha Electronics, Mumbai Robokits, Gurjat, India Vega Robo Kit (Mac-net Technologies), Mumbai and Hyderabad Element 14 Digibay, Hyderabad Simple Labs, Bangalore

www.embeddedmarket.com Embedded Market, Pune You need to visit the websites, search more, and spend some time there to know what s where. You need to list out your priorities first for choosing a shop as follows: 1. Payment a. Cash on Delivery b. Direct Account Transfer c. Credit cum ATM card d. Net banking 2. Shipping a. Postal b. Private services (Bluedart, First Flight, etc.) 3. Price a. Less (including shipping) b. More

Tip: Fail and fall as much as you can, you learn while picking yourselves up. If you dont want to lose any money while ordering components, before confirming the order, keep your cash ready and ask to friends for payment before components arrive, if youre ordering their components. Its easy to keep track of money if you work by rules.

3.1 Distribution and Remaining Component Order After components have arrived, only remaining task is to check if the ordered components and arrived components match. If they match then send a thank you mail to the shop from where you bought the components. If some component is missing or some component is misplaced, contact to the shop to sort out the problem. In most cases there is nothing more to do than to order new component. So you need to prepare a complementary list right after youve received components. Once you have prepared your complementary list, ask your friends if they want to order any components, take a list from them and order the components. Main purpose of this kind of trick is to divide the shipping cost into splits.
