The #Littlecar channel on Youtube has done a great job of capturing the history of Microbee in a compact 18 minute presentation. Well worth a look along with the many, many other retro computer videos he has produced.

For those playing along with yesterday's 'What's in the crate' post,
the answer is: a new SMD pick and place machine.
Most of you know Microbee Technology for our retro tech and are looking forward to our 2 new kit computers. However, retro tech is not the only thing we offer.

This machine complements our first machine very nicely. We have plans to further expand and enhance our assembly service capabilities but this is an important step right now. Additionally, it will be used to manufacture the small FPGA module in our up-coming kit computers.

So, if you have a product concept that you would like to see turned into a working product, or already have designs that you need manufactured here in Australia, talk to Microbee Technology.
No bees or cats (Shrodinger or otherwise) were harmed in the opening of the crate. :)

Designed a new dev board for RGB to HDMI and I2S sound based on the Lattice SII9022A and Crystal Semi CS4344. Needed to try these parts out before adding to our up-coming kit computers.
