Atari Punk Console – DIY Soldering Kit for 8-Bit Sounds

Solarpunk Synthesizer – DIY Noise Kit with Solar Power The Solarpunk Synthesizer is a unique soldering kit for sound explorers, noise enthusiasts, and synth lovers. Based on a minimal analog circuit using a Schmitt trigger (74HC14), an op-amp, and three potentiometers, this synthesizer creates fascinating and quirky soundscapes – all powered by a small solar panel. The Concept The original sound module was developed in 1996 by Ralf Schreiber. Over time, it was refined and transformed into a Through-Hole Technology (THT) version by Marc Dusseiller and Jörg Heinemann, making it suitable for workshops and DIY enthusiasts. The result: a fun and accessible solar-powered synthesizer for everyone. What makes it special? No batteries needed: Powered entirely by a small solar panel Ever-changing sound: The light level directly affects the sound Unique tones: Each module sounds different, like birds or insects 3.5 mm audio jack: Connect to headphones, speakers, or audio interfaces Great for experimentation: Circuit is easy to modify and expand Perfect for: DIY audio & synth lovers Solar energy & electronics workshops Solarpunk and maker communities Artists, educators & sound designers Kit contents: 1x Solarpunk Synth PCB 1x Schmitt Trigger IC 74HC14 1x MCP6002 dual op-amp 3x Potentiometers 100 kΩ (RV1–RV3) 1x Solar panel 3x Ceramic capacitors 1 µF (C1–C3) 2x Ceramic capacitors 100 nF (C6, C7) 2x Electrolytic capacitors 10 µF (C4, C5) 1x Resistor 22 kΩ (R7) 2x Resistors 10 kΩ (R1, R6) 4x Resistors 1 MΩ (R2–R5) 2x Piezo buzzers (Ø 20 mm) 1x 3.5 mm headphone jack 2x ~5 cm wire Note: This synthesizer works exclusively with sunlight or strong ambient light. The sound changes continuously depending on the light level – ideal for natural sound experiments and interactive installations. For circuit diagrams and additional info, check our blinkyWiki.

Motörbörd – The Electronic Chirping Bird You Build Yourself Tweet tweet, chirp chirp! The Motörbörd is a fun and creative DIY electronics kit that brings together sound, technology, and art.

Build it, decorate it, and let it sing!

The Ermer beeper is a practical continuity checker for the electronics hobbyist and for those who want to become one. The beeper is based on the simplest principle and trains our sense of hearing for the circuit. Different frequencies can be used to detect different components. Due to its simple discrete construction, the continuity tester is extremely fast, faster than many multimeters.The continuity tester was developed by Christof Ermer and therefore bears the same surname.The kit comes with all the necessary components and a circuit board:Printed circuit boardLoudspeakerLasered wooden parts for the caseVarious resistors, transistors and capacitorsBanana socketsBattery HolderPlease note: this kit does NOT include test leads/test tips!
