Part Ninja v1 free PCB build

Ginpb built a free Part Ninja v1 PCB. After some initial issues with crystal load capacitors he was able to get his board to run. The Part Ninja is a electronic component testing tool. It identifies electronic components like transistors and FETs, determines the pinout, and measures basic specifications. Several SMD footprints are included so surface […]

MCP2200 breakout board free PCB built

Ricros built a free MCP2200 breakout board. MCP2200s are USB-to-UART converter chips from Microchip. They are actually a remarked PIC18F14K50 microcontroller programmed with the USB-to-UART firmware – we were able to hack one and reprogram it to run an open source USB stack. If you build a free PCB we’ll send you another one! Blog about […]

XC9572XL CPLD breakout free PCB build

Victor has built a free XC9572XL CPLD breakout board. CPLDs are programmable logic gate arrays which allow you to build custom logic devices simply by programing them.
