About the Ai unleashes chaos PCB
Ai unleashes chaos is an open source PCB design by gallicchio, published on GitHub under the MIT license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 100 × 100 mm, with 66 components from 28 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the LF412CDR, MPY634KU/1K, A0515S-2WR2, CJ78L12 and CJ79L12. By type, the board carries 29 capacitors, 20 resistors, 7 ICs, 5 connectors, 1 fuse and 1 switch.
From the project
Lorenz Attractor Circuit by Paul Horowitz in KiCAD
Lorenz Attractor Circuit by Paul Horowitz in KiCAD
In graduate school I worked with Paul Horowitz, of Art of Electronics fame. I even contributed a few bits and pieces to the 3rd edition. (I am thanked in the footnotes, one of which simply says, "Jason, again.") This started by asking Claude, "I want you to build a nice little present for Paul, which could also live on as an open source project and a kit that people could build." Watch Paul's Interview with Ladyada to get a sense for the guy.
