About

David L. Jones is an electronics design engineer based in Sydney Australia.

In this blog he shares some of his 20 years experience in the electronics design industry in his unique non-scripted overly enthusiastic and passionate style.
Bullshit and political correctness don’t get a look-in.

Dave started out in hobby electronics over 30 years ago and since then has worked in such diverse areas as design engineering, production engineering, test engineering, electro-mechanical engineering, that wacky ISO quality stuff, field service, concept design, underwater acoustics, ceramic sensors, military sonar systems, red tape, endless paperwork trails, environmental testing, embedded firmware and software application design, PCB design, power distribution systems, ultra low noise and low power design, high speed digital design, telemetry systems, and too much other stuff he usually doesn’t talk about.

He has been published in various magazines including: Electronic Today International, Electronics Australia, Silicon Chip, Elektor, Make, and ReNew.

Few people know Dave is also a world renowned expert and author on Internet Dating, a qualified fitness instructor, geocacher, canyoner, and environmentalist.

MANUFACTURERS:
Step up to the plate and send your product in for one of Dave’s famous tell-it-like-is no bullshit product reviews.

If it gets the thumbs up, your product is bound for eternal glory and will be worshiped by electronics engineering nerds the world over.
If it gets the thumbs down because it’s a crap design, you get humiliated and your product dies the sad death it deserved. But the good news is Dave will tell you what to do better next time.

Fluke, Agilent, & Gossen Metrawatt are three big players brave enough to take on the challenge so far, and even Microchip take him seriously, are YOU game enough?
