About

I design and build small, useful electronic things. I started in 2013 after leasing an electric car and deciding that I could build my own charging station. Since then, I've gone on to design lots of things to fill particular needs.

The name of my store is partly a nod to Arduino's Italian roots, since Arduino got me into microcontroller engineering, and that led to everything else. I also like the image of Geppetto, working away in his workshop making little things that come to life.

GPS Adds Game Changing Capability to Consumer Timekeeping

For GPS Clock

Over the years, the tech toys that engage the casual time-keeping enthusiast have evolved from 60Hz AC clocks to the revolutionary Heathkit GC-1000 shortwave-disciplined digital clocks to the current crop of 60kHz VLF-disciplined clocks. Displayed time accuracy in sync with shortwave standard time broadcasts has been a gratifying accomplishment to the Time Geek in many of us. The next r/evolution is here with the Geppetto GPS clocks! Instead of a synchronization process that may take several minutes, the Geppetto GPS clock is already synchronized the instant the time is displayed. After an initial process of accumulating the almanac of GPS constellation data, the time is displayed with superb accuracy. Just like listening to shortwave time signals, you instantly know The Time at your location, no guessing about whether your clock is synchronized to a shortwave or VLF source. With GPS as your reference, you don't have propagation issues; there is the occasional "no GPS" notification when the constellation and your antenna placement isn't optimal, but that is rare. There is a display setting to guide you for the best antenna placement, and a multitude of display options for everyone's taste. Several options are offered for the clocks, such as GPS antenna and custom housing. If you are a time enthusiast looking for a no-compromise digital chronometer, you should check the devices offered at Geppetto Electronics. -BW

Great Product, but even better support

For FE-5680A GPS Discipline module

Not only is the board amazing, the seller went above and beyond in helping me troubleshoot my Rubidium Oscillator and helped me figure out what was going on with it. Will be buying other products from them as well! highly recommended!

Almost 9 years later and still going strong

For USB µISP

I bought this device from Gepetto in February of 2015. Since then, it's been tossed into many random drawers, been through two apartment moves, and yet every time I've used it it's always *just worked* which says something about the design and designer!
Many moons ago when I was getting into microcontrollers, the AVR Dragon was the new hotness. You'd think the official programmer board from Atmel would have been resilient, but nope. It somehow died, as did my MkII ISP. Yet between this, my PicKit 3, and my MPLAB Snap, I've got all the bases covered with devices that actually last and don't just randomly die while sitting on the shelf between uses.
Thanks for making such a great little programmer!

Love the ability to build an insane clock!

For Crazy Clock

Ordered and received the week long clock movement. Now have it installed in and old clock with my custom designed clock face. So fun! Just had to buy this because it’s both nerdy and humorous. Totally my favorite thing to make. Thank you!
