General info

  • You can purchase things directly if you spend less than 100€ including taxes (obviously with authorization of your tutor). Give the receipt or invoice to your tutor to obtain refund!
  • If you need to spend more you need to refer to your tutor to start a different procedure.

Electronics stuff

  • RS - You can shop on-line or buy direct from the RS shop located in via W. Tobagi, 19 - Vimodrone (near the "Cascina Burrona" stop of MM2). Important! If you buy directly at the RS shop, you absolutely must request that the name on the invoice ("fattura") is: Politecnico di Milano - Dipartimento di Elettronica e Informazione - via Ponzio 34/5 - 20133 Milano and that the invoice is marked as paid (RS uses a strange paper-piercing tool to do the mark). If you ask for these two things, you get a 10% discount; if you don't, you don't get the discount and, above all, you cannot obtain a refund from your tutor!
  • Farnell - You can shop on-line with discounts.
  • Franchi di Scarpa - Via Padova, 74 - Milano.
  • Watterott Online shop in Germany (no additional taxes): drivers, microcontrollers, cards, ...
  • Sintolvox - Via Privata Asti, 12 (close to Piazza Piemonte) - Milano.
  • Futura Elettronica - via Adige 11, 21013 Gallarate (Va)
  • LeD elettronica snc - Milano via Bessarione 14 (Corvetto) - 02-5392845
  • Microchip - OnLine shops for PIC and other stuffs. For sample request try to sent an e-mail to franca.borella<at>microchip.com. Italian sales office is located in Legnano, Via P. Picasso 41. Reception Phone: 0331-742611; Franca Borella: 0331-742621.

Machine shop

  • Meccanica di precisione srl di Moretti Piero, via Tartini Giuseppe 6 (map), 02-3761826. Use line 82 from Bovisa or MM3 Maciachini.
  • Ferramenta Pietro Viganò, via Montevideo 8, Milano.
  • Ferramenta Sergio Santori, next to via Buschi 19 (near the intersection between via Buschi and via Grossich, at 2 minutes from the exit "via Pacini" of stop "Lambrate FS" of the underground). Unassuming small shop without a sign (it's the one on the right of "Ditta G&G"), but incredibly well stocked. Try it.

  • Burklin: vendor of cables and other stuff.
  • CTMeca, an Italian vendor of mechanical parts.
