This is what 10x engineer looks like.
@lukeweston goddamn now I want one
@lukeweston *11x Gotta turn it up to 11
@lukeweston Hah, that's capacitor hell, bet there was some fun doing that. I thought my current decoupling was pretty unpleasant to route, but nowhere near that beast.
@lukeweston I'm learning about PCB design and EE in general- what's the point of all these caps? Is it to clean up the input voltage for the different parts of the chip? Working with the memory data transfer? Power management?
@lukeweston good/bad? can you explain? trying to get into microelectronics
@lukeweston Layout is a nightmare
@lukeweston Good floor planning on this one
@lukeweston Can confirm, getting those pads neat like that is a work of skill. So sad Im under NDA I would have loved to share how I do it.
@lukeweston Ah yes a 10x engineer, this means they can take 10x the voltage without burning out right? Right? 😅
@lukeweston Is that aggressive passives, or just passive aggressive??
@lukeweston welcome to capa city
@lukeweston epic
ChatGPT is so advanced now. I needed to find the differential nonlinear error of this DAC board i designed and was using a nanovoltmeter. stepping though DAC codes up to 10V lowers the # of digits you can see on the voltmeter so i was stumped on how i could see a reading << 1 DAC
FPV camera decoding on LiteX M2 SDR with GNU Radio and gr-ntsc-rc :)
some quality checks on NimbusV0 before they leave the office 🫡 new-gen will be 100x more scalable
Researchers at NUS just 3D printed metal circuits in mid air using a system called CHARM3D. It uses Field’s metal, a low melting alloy that cools fast enough to hold its own shape. They can literally draw wires in space that conduct electricity, bend, and heal when reheated. A
