Electronics

It's a bit more than a month after FOSDEM now. The few bits of hardware I designed for the video capture boxes for the event held up great. I realized I never wrote a blog post about it so here it is.

Sometimes the custom 5-port gigabit switch _is_ the solution.

I've had a janky setup to store data from my "smart" energy meter for a while now. But now I have made a neat finished product from it.

Generating OpenSCAD cases from KiCad PCB files with a bit of Python code and magic.

As projects get more complicated the tooling has to improve. Outgrowing the arduino-ide is easy on the Pi Pico with the excelent pico-sdk but what if things get even more complicated...

MNT Research is an open hardware manufacturer based in Germany. I'll have a look at their open standalone keyboard.

Hacking together bits of electronics to route audio

Let's see if I can get blinky running on the PINE64 PineCone 3 years after it's release.

Designing electronics is neat. This is a look into designing my own ESP8266 based sensor board.

Trying to connect a thermal camera to the backcover of a PinePhone using the pogo pins.

My progress in using an E-paper display over USB to display data feeds.

Thomann just released their own amp attenuator. Let's measure it and take it apart.

A few weeks ago I replaced my Line6 Podxt live multieffect pedal with a guitar amp, cabinet and 2 pedals. The amp is a Kustom Defender 5H head and I use a Kustom 1x12 cab with it.
