    MAX7219 and higher voltage LED displays - how?

    You may be able to use a couple of DG419 or ADG419. I believe a DG333A or ADG333A is the same as a MAX394 (but not sure, you will have to compare datasheets)

    MAX7219 and higher voltage LED displays - how?

    It looks like the circuit on page 12 of the datasheet switches the cathode to -5V, thus providing 10V between anode and cathode. (+5V from the 7219 anode segment drivers & -5V thru the fets)

    Simple Conversion Circuit

    The motor will only draw as much current as it needs, whether you use 2 LR41's or 2 D cells. Adding a resistor will only slow down the motor. If you are concerned about excessive current draw due to motor failure, put a low value fuse in series with the external batteries.

    Digital Counter triggering.....

    If it's a mechanical counter, you may have to provide a power source through your switch to get it to count.

    Building small -V Power Supply using Max232

    The MAX232 is an RS-232 communication chip, why not try a MAX680 or MAX681 or an ICL7660, there should be schematics on how to do this on their datasheets.

    5V Rectifier Intermittent Due to Heat?

    You may also try reflowing the solder on the rectifier. Constant heating & cooling on equipment that old can produce a cold (dry) solder connection.

    digital scales circuit AD620 op amp not working?

    You gain calculations for this device are incorrect. First circuit gain = 49400/100000+1 = 1.494 Second Circuit Gain = 49400/2320+1 = 22.3
