Autodesk Open Source 3D Printer
I have been interested in 3D printing related technology – I have followed the development on the field and written on it. There has been many interesting open source ED printers starting from RepRap to all kinds of 3D printer designs. It is interesting to see what makes those cheap FDM devices to run. But →

Interesting signal generators
Function generator in an important tool in electronics laboratory. It allows to generate different types of electrical waveforms over a wide range of frequencies. Traditionally function generators have been built using analogue electronics. There have been special ICs that have been widely used for this: Exar XR2206 and the Intersil ICL8038integrated circuits can generate sine, →
