I’m thinking next time I’ll lay out out with individual components rather than grouped ICs i.e. I was using an ic with 8 AND gates in it, maybe I should try individual components or smaller ics so I can lay them out better… either that or I need to get better with PCBnew…

"“Secure Element” (SE) chips have traditionally taken a very closed-source, NDA-heavy approach. [...] This blog post explains my reasoning for agreeing to advise Cramium, and what I hope to accomplish in the future."

ok, got a far better image from my work's binocular. Sadly I also broke the die during transport...
Now I need to learn to identify what I see

"With a collection of salvaged and homemade equipment, Zeloof produced a chip with 1,200 transistors."

"For the holidays, I decapped a chip that plays three Christmas melodies. The UM66T melody chip from the 1980s was designed for applications such as greeting cards and toys. It looks like a transistor, but when connected to a battery and speaker it plays music."

556 followers · 11287 posts · Server mstdn.ioA very nice post by Ken Shirriff on the first FPGA.
"The FPGA was invented by Ross Freeman who co-founded Xilinx in 1984 and introduced the first FPGA, the XC2064. [...] I reverse-engineered Xilinx's XC2064, and in this blog post I explain its internal circuitry (above) and how a "bitstream" programs it.""

"In this blog post, I reverse-engineer this chip from die photos and explain how it works. It's essentially three power op-amps with some interesting circuitry inside."

"Today we are pleased to announce the release of two new soldering kits: the 555SE discrete 555 timer and the 741SE discrete op-amp.
Both of these new kits are surface mount soldering kits — our first surface mount soldering kits — and we think that you’re going to love them."
