Once...Alexander Rowsell
- 02Clock Module: Homebrew SBC ToolI’ve played around with designing my own microprocessor-based single-board computers over the years. I was inspired originally by a Z80 project done by a rather unknown YouTuber, and then was very inspired after seeing Matt Sarnoff’s Ultim809 project. I always wanted a computer with a front panel full of LEDs and switches so I could program,...Alexander Rowsell
- 03When Large Models Start Designing PCBs, What Happens to the Electronics Industry?I’ve been using large language models to design a few circuit boards recently, and the more I use them, the more I feel that something important is starting to change. Until recently, when we talked about AI-assisted hardware design, we mostly meant asking AI to search for information, recommend components, explain a datasheet, or write...gongyu
- 04I Have an Idea #01 – What If Your Car Could Remember the View You Just Saw?A recent road trip gave me a new product idea. Before the trip, I bought an Insta360 camera because road trips are full of moments you cannot plan for: a mountain suddenly appearing around a bend, a lake opening up beside the highway, a sunset over the coast, or a deer crossing the road for...gongyu
- 05I Designed a KiCad PCB with GPT-5.6 and GPT-6 — and It Changed How I Think About Hardware DesignOne of the things that surprised me most about the newly released GPT-6 Astra is how capable it has become at working with KiCad. I happened to be planning a new hardware project at the same time: a small controller board based on Espressif’s new ESP32-S31 module, intended to become the “head” of a small...gongyu
- 06KeyVault32: Offline Password ManagerEditor’s note: Remember that security works in layers, and that we are not able to do a forensic analysis of this device to ensure there are no bugs in the code. However, the code is available which is a huge plus versus closed-source hardware! Everyone should be using a password manager these days. The risk...Alexander Rowsell

- 08Gotta Catch Em All! GameBoy Pokemon TraderOne of the unique features of the original Game Boy (and its immediate successors) was the ability to link two or more units together using the Link Cable. While this enabled multiplayer gaming for many games, no game used it as much as the original Pokemon games. Without a friend who owned the opposite colour...Alexander Rowsell
- 09NextPCB x Tindie Hardware Creator R&D Support ProgramI’m sure you’ve noticed on site by now, but we wanted to officially announce this new Hardware Creator Support program in partnership with NextPCB! We’re aiming to help our sellers to reduce development costs and help bring cool new products to the market. Eligible Tindie sellers can receive support for PCB prototyping, international shipping, and...Alexander Rowsell
- 10Secure TOTP Storage & UsageKeeping online accounts secure is more important than ever, especially with breaches occurring all the time. Using a password manager is an important step, but if you want to take your security to the next level, it’s worth looking at secure hardware devices like the TOTPVault. This fully open-source project stores TOTP secrets and generates...Alexander Rowsell
