Network Rack Upgrade

After 2 months of careful planning, part sourcing, and even some 3D printing magic, my freshly upgraded network rack is finally live! From a robust Tecmojo 12U frame to a lineup of SBCs and mini-PCs, every component has been placed with purpose. In this post, I’ll walk you through the hardware, share product links, and highlight the key modules that bring my homelab, and the Pacific Northwest Computers’ infrastructure, to life!!

Circuit Simulation & PCB Design Tools

In the fast-paced world of electronics design, having the right tools at your fingertips can make all the difference between a concept that stays on paper and one that comes to life. Whether you’re just starting out or you’re a seasoned pro, circuit simulation and PCB design software help you prototype, test, and refine your ideas before you ever send files off for fabrication. Below is a curated roundup of both free and professional-grade applications, complete with links and brief descriptions, so you can quickly find the right fit for your next project.
