You know what's amazing is I actually did go on to work from SparkFun for a time! I wrote content on a contract basis in 2015 through 2018.

Looks awesome! Definitely something I'll check out for future prototypes.

Very cool! Interesting way of hooking up boards and using the audio jack to upload programs. A lot of work must have gone into the software for this project.

What happened to the quarter?

In the wearables industry you can imagine most of the soldering I do is through a microscope. If you're going to do a lot of SMD soldering I would invest in a decent stereo microscope. I've done 01005 components with it. I like to tin the pads, apply a dab of liquid flux (use a small piece of wire to apply just enough), and then float the component onto the pads and tack one side of it.

Thanks for noticing that! The diagram has been fixed. It'd be very bad to short 5V to ground!

Next Friday's products wouldn't have anything to do with Radio Frequency would they?

Seriously. I would love to work for Sparkfun.
