I just remembered I hadn't announced it here on the blog. Time to change that.
I'm holding a little contest, to encourage people to get into circuit board design, and to showcase the talent on tap here at diyaudio.
The idea is pretty simple. I hand out a circuit schematic, you design a circuit board based on the schematic. It's all done in Eagle CAD software, which is free to download and available on Mac/Windows/Linux platforms.
The circuit is a headphone amplifier of my design, and fairly simple. It's easy enough to come up with a workable layout, the trick is to come up with a really good one, that is small, convenient, clear, logical, good looking and that follows sound electrical design practice.
Winner will get a pair of boards, complete with all components, built by me. Runners up get sent pairs of the winning board design.
Deadline is the end of the month, so get on it!
