Hey there ! I’m Timothy, PhD student in semiconductor physics and amateur radio operator with the callsign F4MVR. This website will work as a blog for me to share the projects, interesting circuits I find here and there, and randome bits of knowledge.
My train main area of focus are radio electronics, semiconductor physics and retrocomputing mixed with everything relating to space or history. So I’ll share articles about the three fields with some special article on space related or history related knowledge.
As a beginner in electronics, I’ll try to give in depth explanation on the cirucits I present with the goal of you, the reader, finishing an article and understanding everything. If this is a succes, you will be able to implement those circuits and modify them to your specific needs, and it helps a lot in debugging !
If you understand it, it’s obsolete
-Bitton’s postulate on electronics-
So read on and welcome in my world for this big adventure !
This idea came from a discussion on reddit post talking about K6ARK’s micro pixie operation. As I never tried doing anything in SMD I though it would be a great project to learn the basics. The schematic is really simple, I just took an already working schematic from chinese pixies and reimplemented it in Kicad…
