My @aisler.net PCBs arrived!!!!! They sponsored these ones, I'm super excited to get one assembled and tested. The primary board here is a TL866 flash ROM adapter, BUT, if I screwed it up, I can cut it up into 3 other alternate-population PCBs, two oscillator modules and a LED test

daily random image: Way back in 2024 :] Some 8051 recycler pcbs from Aisler! They came out great, I have them for a 'quick grab' inexpensive controllers on stuff I dont even want to throw a controller at in the first place.

You can be effective by switching off your phone, reusing verified HW blocks, or ordering your PCBs locally. Well, it depends. I know. When I want to manufacture my Beny-devices Hardware Design Templates, I order only locally at @aisler.net

Around 70 engineers & developers met at Munich Embedded to discuss reproducibility, Rust and real hardware. AISLER supported the event as sponsor, with our CTO Patrick on site.

now I can have another shot at testing the comparator... thanks @aisler.net 😋 (NNNI25 for €10 off!)

PCBs arrived from @aisler.net. Only one of them has a short! That’s not a design flaw, but a tolerance thing. This is the most complex PCB I’ve designed. Sweating at the thoughts of placing the tiny components!! 😂

I made a silly noob mistake and fried a brand new comparator... but that's another chance to redo the board (with input dividers so I can set a threshold!) and send it off to @aisler.net 😋

@aisler.net loot part 3/3! arranging the PCBs this way took way too long (NNNI25 for €10 off at Aisler😌)

@aisler.net loot part 2/3! this is shaping up to be a good weekend (NNNI25 for €10 off at Aisler😇)

Spring cleaning? Missed it. Autumn workspace reset? Right on time! Archive projects you’re done with. Delete the ones you want to let go of. You asked for this option, we hope you like it! Which feature would you like to see next? Share your ideas here: community.aisler.net/c/feature-re...

@aisler.net loot part 1/3! PCBs hold up to close inspection and look very delicious too😋 these days, I always get mine with the rapid registration stencil, a template for which can be freely downloaded and printed! thank you Aisler for the constant support! (NNNI25 for €10 off at Aisler😇)

We'd like to show you another part of Campus Tirol Motorsports formula student car: A self developed Accumulator Management System. It consists of the AMS, nine Cell Supervision Circuits and a Precharge Circuit. The team wrote more about the project in this post: community.aisler.net/t/self-devel...

another one for the october PCB design bonanza

The DARE team’s latest project, Stratos V, focuses not on altitude records but on reusability. The team aims to validate design concepts that enable recovery and refurbishment for future missions. 1/2

Redesigned 555, called MIC155x, was aired yesterday. Creating the PCB layout using #KiCad is a breeze. I've been using the 𝗣𝘂𝘀𝗵 𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝗔𝗜𝗦𝗟𝗘𝗥 plugin. The PCB manufacturing order is then a task that takes 30 seconds. Thank You for the support, @aisler.net

yep... 27 days later, I have something I'm happy with... off to @aisler.net !

Working with polarized components during manual assembly can be tricky, but some tricks can make it easier. A thread 🧵:

Today we have a little thought experiment for you. "What if Germany’s reunification had never happened?" A 🧵about the #GermanUnityDay

The second and final day of Maker Days 2025 in Eindhoven is in full swing, and everyone is having a great time! Our SMT soldering workshop with the Arduino-like board is going to be continuing today! So, if you're free, why not come and say hello? We'd love to see you in Hall 2.

Tomorrow, the Maker Days Eindhoven kicks off: Find our team in Hall 2, Stand P38, where we’ll be hosting a SMT soldering workshop. We've designed a board specifically for this workshop, allowing you to not only learn the process but also take home a functional project. #MKR2025

We came up with a solder jig for our solder workshop at the Maker Days Eindhoven. Which is made up of pin headers onto which the socket headers used by the MCU PCB are placed. Then the MCU PCB is put into the jig upside down, allowing the soldering of all pins without having to rotate the PCB.

We have a quick update for all makers and developers in the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg and France. We have reduced your shipping costs and aligned them with delivery costs within Germany. This means that your projects will now arrive faster and more cheaply. 🧡

Greetings from the #AachenerFirmenlauf ! Our rapid runners are currently running the 9.9 km route. Is anyone else here into charity runs? 🏃🏻 We're joining over 7,000 other legends to run for a brilliant cause, and we'll be out there having a nice time and making some awesome memories. 🧡

Take part in our ticket raffle where we give away three tickets for the Maker Days Eindhoven here on Bsky and LinkedIn and four on Mastodon. You can participate by commenting on this post; tell us about your latest project. :) See the terms & conditions here: community.aisler.net/t/aisler-pre...

We’ve just finished our three-part tutorial on creating a custom footprint in KiCad. You can find the full version at YT: youtu.be/sDvQ3Wh98AI?... Now we’d love to hear from you: Which topic should we cover next? Share your favorite topic as an answer or in our DMs 🧡 #KiCad #PCBDesign #Electronics

Wrapping up the #KiCad tutorial today. In Part 3, I go through the finishing touches: drawing the outline, setting up the courtyard, adding the chamfer, and finally placing the Pin 1 designator. If you prefer to watch the full tutorial, you may want to visit our YouTube channel: youtu.be/sDvQ3Wh98AI

In Part 2 of our #KiCad tutorial series, we walk through creating and positioning pads step by step, based on the datasheet. Tomorrow we publish Part 3, where we finish the footprint by drawing the outline, adding the courtyard and setting up the markings.

Creating custom footprints in #KiCad can feel a bit painful the first time, but it really doesn’t have to be. In Part 1 of our new tutorial series, we walk through how to set up a custom footprint from scratch. Here’s the quick rundown of what we're doing in the video. 🧵

Selecting ceramic capacitors for LDOs based on rated capacitance alone is risky. Temperature, DC bias and aging reduce the effective value. Stability depends on choosing the right dielectric, voltage rating and package size. Read our circuit appnote: community.aisler.net/t/selecting-...

We’ll be at Maker Days Eindhoven on 27 and 28 September. 🧡 This year we’re running a soldering workshop. We’ll guide you through the essentials and you’ll walk away with working hardware. We’re looking forward to meeting other devs and makers! Get your tickets here: tickets.makerdays.nl/en/home

Did you follow this year’s World Solar Challenge? For the first time, the 3,000 km race across the Australian outback took place in winter, with less sun and more rain. Sonnenwagen Aachen finished 4th overall, with our sponosred PCBs on board. 🧡 Catch their vlog here: youtu.be/PgWwdKTUr7A?...

We've seen makers wanting to create M.2 modules using our pool, so we put together a community article to help you understand what's possible and what might be a bit more tricky. There's also a checklist at the end to help you keep track. Read the article here: community.aisler.net/t/low-cost-m...

Heya @timonsku.zip under which license did you publish these M.2 templates? There is no info in the repository. github.com/timonsku/M.2...

Deutsche Post and DHL temporarily suspended the transport of business customer parcels to the U.S. UPS, our second logistics partner, continues to deliver to the US, with an added international processing fee of 2.5€ per parcel. No delays in the shipment process have been indicated by UPS.

🧵 1/2 Have you ever wondered how castellated edges are manufactured? When designing castellated edges, the center of the pad needs to be placed on the board outline. If we now simply mill along it, we would create copper burrs, which would need to be cleaned up. So we prepare the pads.

We’ve released the AISLER Rapid Registration Jig, a 3D-printed holder you can generate with OpenSCAD. The jig is not as precise as commercial tools like the eC-stencil-mate, but accurate enough for makers... and student teams ;) Find the files and details at GitHub → github.com/AislerHQ/rap...

From the small SOT-23 MOSFETs that toggle LEDs to the ones in D2PAK package that can switch dozens of amps in a power supply. More than 48% of Diotec MOSFETs are now available in the AISLER Lovely Library to speed up your development process. Give our library a try today: github.com/AislerHQ/lov...
