    Congratulations, I really enjoyed your blogs and videos.  It's amazing what can be done with analog.

    Yeah, definitely some cool prizes. I hadn't even read the specs. I felt so lucky with the kit of components that element14 sent us and to be able to participate in this challenge that I hadn't paid attention to the prizes. I'm impressed. I look forward to sharing everything I learn with those tools. When I studied Electrical Industrial Engineering in the 1980s, we had a change in the location of the campus and many workshops in the electronics laboratory were canceled due to lack of infrastructure. I always have the feeling of a pending subject.

  • I submitted my project at the end of the timeline. "breathing AMP" was a part of the project meant for respiration rate monitor. The front end was designed using opamps and that's why I shared it in the Op-Amp-a-Palooza contest. Thanks a lot to  for his enthusiastic reply when I approached him that I have a project based on opamps (other than the sponsored ones) to share.
    It's great to be one of the first place winners.... WOW

    Thanks to all the participants for sharing their projects which enriched the community. And obviously hats off to judges - it definitely wasn't easy to go through all these quality contents to pick the winners.
