First, what is an ASIC? An ASIC is an Application Specific Integrated Circuit which basically means that it is an Integrated Circuit on a single piece of silicon and its use is limited to a particular application or function. An example would be an ASIC to process an audio CODEC or run a specific cryptographic… Continue reading Designing My Very Own ASIC with Tiny Tapeout
Taking pictures and geeking out over cameras was one of my first hobbies starting with an old Olympus point and shoot, I then moved up to a DSLR upgrading as new and exciting technology became accessible to my summer job budget. I then got the opportunity to buy a Leica M8 and was immediately hooked… Continue reading Pieca: A Raspberry Pi Camera System for Leica M Mount Lenses
I previously create a PCB patch antenna using the Matlab antenna design toolbox and had some pretty good results, but the narrow bandwidth of patch designs means that small errors in the simulation parameters cause a shift away from your desired frequency. My old post into the details of my journey of learning about patch… Continue reading 2.4GHz PCB Patch Antenna V2 Design with Matlab
