We love SparkFun. Great group of people. Excellent products. It's just that they're... well... twisted and cruel. You see their RoboJoust event? We didn't take them serious when they said it was to be performed 4' off a concrete floor. But here's the proof. They're actually building the table that high off the ground. Next […]
Geek Engineers wanted
Dave Hrynkiw
August 4, 2010
With the departure of our two interns, we're finding that we miss them. Damn them and their desire to complete their education...
Since they left, we're finding we have too many projects and not enough hands to get them done. Got some/any of the following qualifications?
- Practical experience with sensors
- Experience with 8-bit embedded computing (AVR, PIC 12/16F series).
- PCB CAD experience (we use Altium Summer '09)
- Robot-building skills
- Grok open-source hardware, MAKE and Arduino
- Live in/near Calgary, Alberta Canada?
You have to have some practical bench skills. I.e.: Can you program a "hello world" LED blinker onto a 12F675 at our workbench?

Tech Tip: Micro Terminal Blocks
We use many, many devices with 0.1" spaced holes, which are pretty much an electronics design standard. We're finding these 0.1" space terminal blocks incredibly useful for making solid, secure, yet serviceable connections to the rest of our designs. We'll often reach for a microcontroller board, then reach for a necessary handful of these parts […]
L298 Compact Motor Driver Kit
Ok, we were fed up with the strange pinouts on the L298 motor driver, and decided to do something about it. The result is the Solarbotics L298 Compact Motor Driver. It happens to be the same size as a BEP tile, offers four status LEDs, plugs for easy wiring, and screw terminals for motor and […]
