Flux's mission is to make hardware design accessible and efficient for everyone. Our powerful AI Copilot acts as your personal design assistant, streamlining the process and allowing you to create sophisticated hardware in a fraction of the time. In this blog, we'll show you how to leverage Flux to design your own AI pin in just a few hours.
Designing an AI pin would normally take months, but in this project, we did it in hours. In our step-by-step guide, you'll see how Flux can accelerate your design process and bring your AI pin project to life.
Without Flux, a project would need to start from scratch. With Flux, you can kickstart your project by selecting a ready-made template from Flux’s extensive library. These templates provide a solid foundation, allowing you to focus on customizing and refining your design rather than starting from scratch.
Next, use Copilot to generate and refine block diagrams. Instead of brainstorming with a team, which you might not have access to, you can use Copilot's conversational interface to ask questions, request changes, and iteratively improve your design until it perfectly suits your project needs.
No more sifting through Mouser or Digi-Key, researching hundreds of components, reading through datasheets one by one. With Copilot's help, find and integrate the best components for your design. Copilot assists in researching part numbers (MPNs) and suggesting optimal components, ensuring your AI pin is built with the best available parts.
Once parts are selected, it’s time to wire up your schematic. Normally this would require comparing datasheets one by one to figure out interconnections. With Flux, Copilot does all of the heavy lifting for you. Automate netlist generation and component configuration with Copilot’s assistance by having it tell you which pins connect where and even watching it wire up components for you. This step simplifies the intricate process of connecting different parts of your design, allowing you to focus on innovation rather than manual configuration.
Working alone but need another set of eyes to review your project? With AI guidance, you can perform thorough design reviews and finalize your layout. Copilot helps you compare your design to datasheets and common practices, ensuring accuracy and reliability. It also extracts the necessary equations to check your calculations, giving you confidence in your design.

Today we’re excited to announce the next game changer from Copilot: AI component creation. Simply upload a datasheet, select the part you’d like to generate, and watch Copilot create a component to your organization’s standards.
Arduino and Raspberry Pi are two of the most popular single-board computers used by electrical engineers for various projects. Both have their own strengths and weaknesses, and choosing between the two depends on the specific requirements of a project.
Integrating AI into hardware development just became easier. Improve your research and planning phase with Flux Copilot—no need to change your existing tools.
Our 2023 guide compares ESP32 and Arduino, two essential microcontrollers in IoT. ESP32 offers advanced features like Wi-Fi, while Arduino excels in ease of use and community support. Choose based on your project's complexity and needs.
We’ve been so amazed with the ways you’ve used Copilot to brainstorm, debug, and conduct part research that we’ve compiled some of our favorite prompts you can copy and paste, or modify for your own use!
Describes Flux.ai's process of enabling 'noUncheckedIndexedAccess' in their TypeScript codebase. This setting enhances type safety by enforcing checks for possible 'undefined' values but introduces numerous type errors in a large codebase. To manage this, Flux.ai used heuristics and automation to suppress new errors with '!' and automate fixes using a provided script.
