Open Source Hardware Certifications For August 2020

Hello Makers, In the month of August we had 14 newly certified open-source hardware. Today I will introduce each of them to you. I hope it may help you in the next project or product.

HSSV ATSAMR21 Breakout is a development board to accelerate the deployment of IEEE 802.15.4 based networks on the 2.4Ghz band. It is based on the ATSAMR21G18-MR210UA module which also includes support for antenna-diversity and a crypto-acceleration chip. This board was designed to be breadboard-friendly and includes USB support and power & LiPo battery management.

The Boards are pre-loaded with the bossa bootloader (used by Arduino) with the command line tool bosses and they have a small development batch. If you are interested in collaborating on the development please contact them. This is the first certified open-source hardware from El Salvador.

Open Source Hardware Certifications For August 2020

Portland Mini Maker Faire recap

Portland Mini Maker Faire made for a fantastic weekend at OMSI earlier this month.  We’ve shared our favorite photos of the fun.

Thanks to everyone that visited our booth.   It’s wonderful to meet our customers in person and hear about their projects!

Sergey Kiselev and his son stopped by our booth to show us projects they’ve created including this Intel Quark environmental sensors board.

People enjoyed seeing our full PCB panels in person and learning more about the manufacturing process.  We’ll also have them on display at our open house on Open Hardware Summit eve next week.

Low Voltage Labs had a bunch of fun easy-to-solder kits:

Mark Keppinger created this blinky board kit for people to learn to solder at the faire:
