Earassistible

by Blueberry.

2 layer board of 3.49x2.00 inches (88.57x50.80 mm).

This is an implementation of a hearing aid circuit as presented on radiofun232’s YouTube channel.

The goal is an inexpensive, open source, battery powered amplifier that takes a signal from a condenser microphone and drives an earphone to help people who are having trouble hearing. This board is designed to be worn around the neck with an earphone connected to the 3.5mm barrel jack.

32 Ohm Headphone - link or equivalent

This circuit has not been tested yet, and it will almost certainly have some tweaks after assembling the board. So stay tuned for the final version. :-)

ATTiny10 Breakout Board

by Blueberry.

2 layer board of 0.65x0.55 inches (16.54x13.97 mm).
Shared on September 30th, 2014 20:28.

A breakout board for an ATTiny10. The controller and filter cap are mounted on the bottom, and the pins are labelled on the top.

Just add an ATTiny10, a 0.1uF cap in a 0805 package, and a 6 pin header (0.100" pitch).

This board may be appropriate for other six pin variants of this micro-controller as well.

Bass Guitar Amplifier

by Blueberry.

2 layer board of 3.24x2.50 inches (82.22x63.50 mm).
Shared on July 16th, 2014 19:51.

An approx. 10 Watt mono class D bass guitar amplifier for driving an 8-ohm speaker. The power amp is based on a TPA3125 chip. A 12-volt power supply capable of delivering at least 1 amp (preferably more) is required. Use a decent quality power supply. I found the cheap power supplies to be too noisy.

Cost: approx. $40 per completed board
Board: approx. $42 for (3) boards
Parts: approx. $26 per board
