Now that it's possible to tape-out an analog open source design, you might find yourself in the predicament of having to layout a design manually - full custom. This talk will provide a brief overview of the process, as well as best practices for designing good, reliable layout to get you started on your full custom journey!

I gave this talk at FOSSI Latch Up 2026, it was an awesome conference looking forward to the next one!

This was a great conversation I had recently with Matt Venn about getting started with analog design and how much Tiny Tapeout and other open source silicon projects can help!

This is a talk I gave at Hackaday Supercon 2024. This talk provided an overview of the analog circuits found in everyday devices and in many maker projects. Learn why analog design isn’t as hard as you think, and how a few simple concepts could drastically improve your next project.
