website for bids on a design wanted!

hmm ...................^^^^^^

You meant serial, ye olde RS-232, right? Whew, compared to USB, with plug-and-play, Windows drivers, Windows registry, etc., etc., that's another matter entirely.

This is for a design that you'll produce for a reasonable price, sell, and support for the next 15 years? You'll need a considerable budget.

For example, an engineer that's familiar with say a Cypress USB chip or a Future Technology FT245 IC will expect some compensation for his software libraries and his hard-earned knowledge as he imparts it to your design.

As an alternate you could give your customers USB-to-serial adapters, or even build one into your instrument. There are a few good choices.

Greetings everyone.

Does anyone know of a web site that you can place a electronic design project on, and people can bid on the project?

Kind of like.. getafreelancer.com but more for electronics design?

Thanks

I've seen posts before about

- brand new website I guess. Read any fine print...

Designing hardware takes a bit more than just doing a layout for some simple schematics. Often the specifications are unnecessarily unfortunate, trading good features for a fart due to a lack of better understanding.

Somebody else, amongst the thousands, hoping to get rich quick with an imaginary brilliant idea?

I'm sorry guys.. I'm afraid that I don't understand, or at the least comprehend your replies?

I own a company, we have a computer add on peripheral device that we created a few years back, and it's about time we upgraded it to version

2(going from cereal to USB).

I'm simply asking where I can find freelance electronic professionals that can work on a temporary project to re-design our current device?

-Richard

Try:

They have a section for embedded system designs.

========================

Richard, so why didn't you say so? We are not mind readers.

Sorry I can't help. I'm long retired.

If you think serial is spelt cereal, any designer worth his salt will run a mile !

Not true. A surprisingly high proportion of engineers are dyslexic, and at least one I know was as spectaculalry good at electronics as he was spectacularly bad at spelling - their, there and they're were interchangable in his texts ....

ah, a bad speller: you mean lysdexic :)

I read in sci.electronics.design that snipped-for-privacy@ieee.org wrote (in ) about 'website for bids on a design wanted!', on Sun, 27 Mar 2005:

Quite true, although 'dyslexia' may be somewhat too 'big' for the context, and I'm not sure that it's all that surprising. It's something to do with the division of function between the left and right halves of the brain. There is a gender element as well, of course; males are generally not as good with words as females.

There are two sides to every question, except

No, that's Spooner's syndrome. He means 'daily sex'.

Ooops.. I see that now. My Bad.

Totally agree Bill,

Some of the most brilliant engineers that we've hired, are a little... well, shall we say, off the wall. The last guy just up and disappeared on us.. and now we can't locate him to give him his royalties.

-Richard.

Yeah.. oops. Sorry. Was late for me when I wrote that. Pulled a 48 hour day.

Not a problem.. were expecting that.

Like I said, not a problem.

Understand.

Will not work. been there, done that.

-Richard

I wondar who that engineer are?

Spelling is essentially a *memory* problem. Science is generally taking a few simple axioms and *deriving* the results. One doesn't have to actually remember much input in comparison to the output generated in sy, designing a circuit.

....it seems as i get older, the more that happens; "erally" is what happens when i go to type "really" (had to do that slow). Also, spaces between words sometimesget lost...
