Little OSMU Update
Added 2020-11-19 21:45:11 +0000 UTCI made an LT1166-based power output stage. Once finished it can be operated with a few ADCs and DACs to create 4-quadrant devices.

The flipped leads on your $160 board made my day, thanks for sharing! π

2020-11-20 19:38:42 +0000 UTCGetting footprints for transistors wrong is something that started happening to me as well after switching to Kicad. Having that default library and the flexibility to pick any footprint for a symbol, leaves room for these easy mistakes.
