About

My name is Jeff Keyzer. This is my blog.
I’m an Electrical Engineer. I live in the beautiful city of San Francisco Austin, Texas. For eight years I designed radio frequency integrated circuits for wireless LAN and cellular networks. In mid-2008, I decided to take a break from RF design and pursue one of my other longtime interests, embedded systems. Now I design hardware for vehicle-mounted street-level mapping systems and do freelance/contract work on the side. I’m also co-authoring a book about making fun projects with AVR microcontrollers.
I blog primarily about electronics and embedded systems. Expect to see posts about microcontrollers (mostly PIC and AVR), Arduino, embedded Linux, electronic circuits, DIY projects, and other related stuff. Sometimes I just post about things that I think are cool.
Most of the projects featured here were born in my garage, but occasionally I will feature projects from other garages as well.
Aside from my obsession with electronics, I enjoy working on old cars, machining, welding, fabricating, and generally building stuff.
