Hardware is hard. Electronics is harder. Not anymore.
Electronics design is locked behind years of studying and experience. Less than 0.01% of the world can design a circuit board. siliXon makes electronics accessible to anyone; if you can describe what you want, you can build it.
Just your ideas in simple English. No constraints required.
Built for anyone, regardless of electronics background.
Rocky picks the parts, draws the schematic and routes the board. How much it hands you is up to you.
You've built a few projects involving some electronics, but are not confident enough to go all the way. Start with an idea and make changes as you see fit. We teach you along the way.
Start from a sentence, or remix a starter board.
