EuroPython 2022 - From circuit board design to finished product: the hobbyist’s guide to hardware manufacturing - presented by Sebastian Roll [Liffey Hall 2 on 2022-07-15] Ever wondered how hardware is made, or curious about making your own? We share our experiences manufacturing a programmable gamepad for use in IoT/MicroPython workshops. We will cover the entire production process, including: - Designing the PCB (Printed Circuit Board) - Choosing microcontroller and parts - Finding, ordering and assembling components - Pulling together firmware, drivers and software Mistakes were indeed made along the way. Let's turn them into valuable lessons! This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 4.0 International License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0/
