Inspired by Forrest Mims III book Getting Started in Electronics Star Simpson became an electrical engineer (MIT grad). She is now updating that "on-ramp" for next generation to be skilled workforce. YouTube interview by AdaFruit "Ask an Engineer". Forrest M. Mims III is a trusted name in the electronics world for good reason: his charming and engaging texts have drawn millions of people into the world of electronics for the first time. Star Simpson is bringing some of those hand-drawn circuits projects to life by creating an exquisitely designed series of finely crafted and highly detailed boards. These are the Circuit Classics. They make a great gift for a first-time learner, an expert tinkerer, or even just as a fun conversation piece for your desk. Crowd Supply funding (orders) have met and exceeded target (by almost 300%) https://www.crowdsupply.com/star-simpson/circuit-classics/ This initial release includes three of Forrest’s circuit designs in kit form: the Dual-LED Flasher, the Stepped Tone Generator, and the Bargraph Voltage Indicator. Each kit includes: Printed Circuit Board (PCB): Includes the circuit itself, the circuit’s schematic, and a description of the circuit, all in Forrest’s iconic hand-drawn style, traced directly from his books. (Prototypes are OSHPark purple, but the final production run will be blue.) Through-hole Components: All the components you need to build a working circuit. Easy to place and solder on the PCB thanks to clear footprints and large, friendly solder pads. Display Stand: made of high-quality blond ash wood, each stand is crafted to let you proudly display your work.
