Wye Knotts Landing EarKiCad 9.0.8 released
DRKRwithRyan 🔩 🎹The boards for the keytar are finally here. This may be the one I'm most excited about. 576 blinky LEDs that will serve as the main display for the faders, buttons, and XY pad.
Aaron MahlerI have a project in mind that needs as short of a 7 pin big DIN male connector as I can get, ideally attachable to a PCB flush at its base. Ripping one out of a typical DIN cable is way too deep the way the usual in-cable housings work. This pictured part from a supplier on Alibaba is the closest I've found.
Does anyone have any insights on sourcing some in the US for prototyping? More precise terminology to describe the form factor or a better PCB mountable version?
BLE VoiceWhen designing Bluetooth PCBs (e.g., JieLi AC695N/AC696N), pay attention to DC-DC layout:
• Prioritize short, wide ground paths – avoid long thin traces.
• Place decoupling caps near chip pins.
• Keep DCDC away from antenna, near battery.
• Inductor close to SW pin, no vias, no components underneath (especially MIC).
• FB sampling after output cap; divider resistors near FB pin.

So I wonder if some considerable amount of the 1/3rd of my shipping cost made up of tariffs on a set of PCBs I’m having made at JLCPCB will be refunded before they are shipped. Might pose the question to their customer support…
Doreen XuDon’t let your protection circuit become a decorative component.
If your TVS isn’t placed right, specified right, and backed by proper system design, it’s not protection — it’s illusion.
Read the full deep dive and discover why real engineers design protection first, not last.

RommudohInspired by my last #WS2812B #PCB, I decided to do a smaller version and try to add a USB C connector. I'm very pleased how it turned out. The LEDs are not as close to each other as last time, but I still used my hot plate to solder them. And hot air for the back side.
