  1. Some pictures from our handsoldering competition at 39C3 — made possible by our generous sponsors. The colourful PCBs were manufactured in Germany by AISLER, and the soldering irons were provided by iFixit.

  2. I think I've finally finished the boards for the keytar. Unfortunately, I don't know of a convenient PCB manufacturer in the US that offers assembly. I can solder most of them myself, but the board containing 576 LEDs might be a job for a pick-n-place machine. 😅

    I'm considering going through @aislerhq to have them made. Has anyone in the states tried them before? Guess I'm worried what the customs situation might look like. 😬 :boost_request:

    More keytar updates soon!

  7. I designed another PCB... Small preview without revealing what it will be. It'll arrive mid January, though.
    They will be manufactured by @aislerhq again, using the 20% December discount for using their #KiCad plugin.
    It'll have the option to use an AVR DA compatible #microcontroller or a #tinyAVR one - I added options for both that I have in stock (AVR32DA32 and ATtiny814). Since it won't use many pins, I could have used smaller variants, too.

  8. I wanted to try out a few new things. So, I designed a development board for the AVR DA #microcontroller, the 32 pin #TQFP looked like something I'd be able to hand solder. I really like #UPDI from the ATtiny814. This is the result, my first four layer boards, first time with logos and an image. The image of #Frieren was a bit too small, though. Manufactured by @aislerhq again.

  9. I designed a #SMD adapter board using @kicad and let @aislerhq manufacture them. They are for #SOT23 on one side and #SOT363 on the other side. They bridge the gap of a #solderless #breadboard, so they are perfect for #prototyping circuits or trying out new components - or as replacement for through-hole parts. I soldered a dual diode #BAV70 on one and a dual NPN/PNP transistor #BC847BPN on a second one to try them out. I'm satisfied how they look, although the white area for labeling is a bit small - I need a thinner pen for that.
    You can find the shared project here: aisler.net/p/UTAGNLYX (trying out this feature, please give feedback if you use it).

  10. First time ordering custom PCBs. It's the Op-Amp-Tester from Learn Electronics Repair: youtu.be/zoHapZsPUPM
    I have to wait for some missing components to arrive, but already soldered the first parts.
    I ordered the boards from @aislerhq since they are located in Germany.
