A short list of resources, projects, and people I work with or
recommend.

Board house we use

PCBWay

The fab and assembly house behind most of the boards that leave this desk. We have sent work their way for years because the quality comes back right and the support engineers actually read the fab notes — which, if you have ever had a stackup quietly substituted, you will know is not universal.

They handle prototype through production: multilayer, controlled impedance, blind and buried vias, HDI, flex and rigid-flex, plus assembly and stencils. If you are taking one of our design tools as far as a real board, they are where we would send it.

Order from PCBWay →

Disclosure: this is a referral link, so if you order through it we may receive a referral benefit from PCBWay — at no extra cost to you, and it does not change your price. We sent work and recommendations their way for years before any referral programme existed, and the recommendation is not conditional on it.


My GitHub

github.com/anovickis

A few selected repositories worth looking at:

  • jax-boltzmann
    — GPU-accelerated CMB Boltzmann solver in pure JAX. ~1,500 lines vs
    CAMB’s ~50,000 lines of Fortran. Auto-differentiable Fisher matrices via
    jacfwd. Currently v0.1.0 alpha; full Fortran-to-JAX port in
    progress.
  • topological-em-structures
    — research code for the topological-soliton physics work I publish on
    Zenodo. Lattice Monte Carlo, Faddeev-Niemi field solvers, and the
    supporting Python / C++ pipeline.
  • Altium-Schematic-Parser
    — converts Altium .SchDoc schematic files into JSON. Useful
    when you need machine-readable access to Altium designs for tooling,
    reviews, or migration.
  • Cores-VeeR-EH1
    — working tree for the open-source Western Digital VeeR EH1 RISC-V core.
    Useful as a starting point for embedded RISC-V projects.
  • dromajo
    RV64GC RISC-V emulator designed for RTL co-simulation. The right tool
    when you need a lockstep reference next to your DUT.
  • chisel /
    circt
    — Chisel HDL and the CIRCT compiler infrastructure. The modern
    open-source RTL stack.
  • coralnpu
    energy-efficient edge ML accelerator core. Relevant to current
    AI-inference silicon work.

(Mix of original work and active forks I track for ongoing
projects. Tell me if any of these should be removed from the public list
or reordered.)


Tools I sell

  • Publish
    to Google Docs — Obsidian plugin, Pro
    — $20 lifetime.
    One-click publish from Obsidian to Google Docs with LaTeX math, images,
    callouts, tables, themes. Pro adds DOCX/PDF export, batch publishing, 5
    themes, table-of-contents, and custom header/footer. Free core on GitHub;
    upgrade to Pro via Gumroad.

People I work with

  • Bit n Bit
    friends + collaborators. When a project needs people who think the way
    they do, I bring them in.
