i see a lot of resistor bridges working on my own usbasp board (different connector and switch layout)

Even though this is by far not the tightest design, I like that Micha has managed to complete it. Given his prior (non-) experience with electronics, I consider this quite an achievement.

After all, the point of all this is to get something done, which is usable and along the way it’s quite an exercise. It’s Micha’s entry into this field.

If I were to do it, I would probably write an optimization algorithm. Micha argues correctly that this would destroy the fun part of chip design for him, and that’s perfectly reasonable. With the lack of experience and automation it’s understandable that this board is not the smallest possible.

no offense taken
a layout optimization compo would be a fun thing to do some point in the future

No offense, it’s great if someone actually builds something himself without resorting to copying

Just jumped in because the “and still maintains a very compact footprint of merely 55mm x 75mm” It’s not the smallest design i’ve seen (mine isn’t too, there are smd builds out there that are much smaller) so perhaps my design gives shackspace members inspiration for even tighter designs

(As told in my blog article, i am better programming these things than doing the electronics, but i love to optimize )

yes, admitted, it’s not the smallest design, but given that there’s no bridges at all (which in itself is quite an achievement already) it’s definitely a neat design
