Welcome
Welcome to my electronics web site.
Over the years I have been designing and building a number of electronic
circuits, for enjoyment and as a means to keep up to date with the ever
advancing field of electronic engineering.
In my day job I am an electronic engineer, but designing
circuits within a company has never quite been as rewarding as tinkering around
in the evenings.
The most interesting part of electronic engineering for me currently is in
embedded design. I found over the years a large part of the hardware design
became ensuring that the correct IC is used for the job and that nearly all of
the intelligence is found in firmware or software. (This is not always the
case).
My tinkering around in the evenings started with programming PIC micro
controllers, it helped with my career as I landed a job in a small outfit where
engineers are generally involved with all aspects of product design, and now I’m
currently designing hardware and writing firmware for a variety of micro
controllers.
I currently have the following projects in the pipe line:
- Wireless Data - nRF24L01 breakout
board. Hardware complete. Will be used in conjunction with the uCEthernet2 to
keep things interesting.
- Wireless Audio - nRF24Z1 breakout and carrier
PCB's coming soon.
- Cortex-M3 - Getting
Getting Started Guide (In progress).
Thankyou to the people that have supported the uCEthernet project, either by
buying a module or identifying bugs in the firmware. Your help is appreciated.
