I’ve created procedural generators of ICs and connectors using geometry nodes. Due to the large number of different packages of ICs and connectors, it might be better to generate their models as and when needed rather than storing an unlimited number of unique 3D models. Also using the new... show more

This is awesome!! We’re building something similar (a large 3d electronics library with parameterized models) Would love to collaborate!!

Rainmaker2 years ago

In this free Substack post I share code for several machine learning models and engage in hyperparameter tuning that yields a model that delivers superior returns in the Gold market.

This system breaks down because many new ICs have unique footprints and models, so you will still need a library system nonetheless. Besides that, it looks good

What you do is so cool!!!

That's what I neeeed!

I’m using manufacturer 3D models to verify how they fit the actual footprint. Creating something based on a possibly wrong footprint goes against logic imho.

I want to be good at Blender one day, just so I can leverage all the cool tools you’re building. Keep up the great work!

You can use Blender's geometry nodes to solve physics and electromagnetic equations such as Biot-Savart law. You can calculate the magnetic field of a coil anywhere in 3D space and visualise the magnetic fields. Additionally, you can see in real-time how the magnetic field lines change as the coil gets deformed and twisted! #geometrynodes #b3d #blender3d #electronics #Engineering #Science #physics #kicad #circuits

With Blender's geometry node system, you can create fully procedural multi-core cable models, you can control the number of cable cores, how the cables twists and also you can strip back the insulation to show the copper core. Furthermore, you can add shrouding that conforms to the shape of the core and extra layers of additional insulation. #b3d #blender3d #electronics #engineering #science #cables #manufacturing #physics #3dmodels #3dmodelling #animation

Designing MRI coils using ElectroMag Nodes! You can visualise the magnetic field lines generated by the superconducting electromagnets in MRI machines and see how making adjustments to them impacts the strength and shape of the field lines, and especially the straightness of lines in the centre In am using the new gizmos in geometry nodes to quickly add and adjust coils. Next I will be also adding the gradient coils. #b3d #geometrynodes #blender3d #mri #art #science #physics #electronics #engineering #simulation #render

Very excited to share the release of my addon Blender FastHenry! Use Blender's powerful modelling capability combined with geometry nodes to run FastHenry simulations! Blender is becoming a multi-purpose tool not just a tool for 3D graphics and animation, but also for engineering and scientific work too. This video shows how you can calculate the impedance of wire bonds and leads of a Mosfet in a TO-220 package, you can see what effect bending the leads and adding a heatsink have on the impedance! hackaday Dave Jones Sybren A.

One of Blender's powerful capabilities is how quickly you can create models and concepts of just about anything. Here you can see how I create a simple model of motor rotor with electromagnets, you can use geometry nodes to speed up your modelling workflow even more and also make them procedural with animations, and it's a lot of fun too! #b3d #blender3d #electronics #hardware #science #engineering #technology #3dart #3DModel #motors

Wire bonding and lead impedance calculation in Blender FastHenry! I've improved how the simulation results are visualised, the entire objects now gets overlaid with a colour rather than using bound boxes. Red is for showing the self-inductance of a selected objected, yellow for mutually coupled objects and blue for conductive plane objects. Very impressed how easy it is nowadays to code anything with Python and Blender #b3d #electronics #engineering #science #pcbdesign #hadware #geometrynodes #3dmodeling #educational #simulation #fasthenry #altium #pythonlearning #electromagnetics #kicad

You can now use Blender Fasthenry to do PCB layout studies, calculate impedances of loops and return paths and determine how many vias you need! This demo shows how the impedance of DC decoupling capacitor is impacted by its distance from the IC, and the number of vias under the IC and near the capacitor. This is for a two-layer 1.6mm PCB at 1MHz. Blender FastHenry is now a solid tool for layout simulations and impedance calculations, available on Github. #b3d #geometrynodes #engineering #science #electronics #Simulation #kicad #altium #hardware #technology #3dmodeling #pcbdesign hackaday Maurizio Di Paolo Emilio
