Products that do what Make Electrical Component Selection Suck Less does
We're building Merlin to speed up electrical component selection, starting with ceramic capacitors. Overview video: https://youtu.be/FrGrivAKhnc The problem: We hated the tedious work of choosing components: copying specs into spreadsheets, taking screenshots from multiple datasheets, and cross-referencing parameters across manufacturers. What we built: - A comparison tool that displays all relevant electrical/mechanical specs along with the performance curves in a single view - An alternates tool that identifies equivalent parts based on a reference component We think…

Hi HN, I’ve spent the last decade building hardware products like humanoid robots, 3D printers, and self-driving tractors. I needed a tool to navigate technical documents faster, so I created one with friends. This tool helps with component search, cross-referencing, comparison, and debugging. We’d love your feedback, whether you find it useful or not. Thank you! Try it here: www.convergelab.ai

We’ve spent the last couple of months building Stillwind Search, a search engine for electronic components that helps users find parts that fit even the most complex set of specifications. After talking to the people that actually build PCBs we found out that finding the exact part you are looking for, is consuming enormous amounts of times, is very tedious and then often doesn’t yield the best results. So we tried to cut down this search time by just requiring a (broad) description of the specifications and we find the correct part in minutes, not hours. This is possible through our own…

Hi HN, After watching a lot of Show HN's here, it's finally my turn to show something. This is the first real project I have shipped, so it is extra special to me. For those who will inevitably ask why I made yet another mockup editor I covered it on our blog (http://blog.mocktailsapp.in/why-build-yet-another-mockup-editor-tm). Not all the features mentioned in that post have been implemented yet. As such Mocktails is pre-beta software and very minimal. It does not even have user accounts or any actual server side component at all for that matter (yet)! Our intention is to build Mocktails…
