The Op-Amp-a-Palooza competition is now closed and we are looking for volunteers to choose a Grand Prize winner and award the First Place finishers. If you didn't get a chance to participate and this is a theme of interest to you then we could use your help in picking a winner!
- Op-Amp-a-Palooza is an open ended exploration of op-amps using low cost components and features premium op-amp testing equipment as prizes. There's so much that can be done with OpAmps: Amplifiers and buffers, measurement, active filters, voltage references, current measurement, audio vs RF vs HT, precision circuits low noise circuits making one from discrete components
This contest includes special op-amp related prizes and we need your help making sure those prizes go to the right place!
You will be judged on the basis of the following criteria:
- Follow the Steps - Did they provide the steps it took to complete the project (text, video, or images) and/or schematics.
- Submit Video Proof - Did they post a video proof of their project?
- Stick to the Theme - How well did the project stick to the theme of the competition?
- Demonstrate Originality - Did they come up with a clever name for their project? Or did they introduce something new or that is not commercially available?
Those of you that have volunteered to judge in the past, you know the drill. Comment below to let me know or message me directly at tariq.ahmad.
You're under no obligation to vote for the best project but we do ask that you look for complete projects and let us know your thoughts on the winners you pick.
