In 2003, CU student Nate Seidle fried a power supply in his dorm room
and, in lieu of a way to order easy replacements, decided to start his
own company. Since then, SparkFun has been committed to sustainably
helping our world achieve electronics literacy from our headquarters in
Boulder, Colorado.
No matter your vision, SparkFun's products and resources are designed
to make the world of electronics more accessible. In addition to over
2,000 open source components and widgets, SparkFun offers
curriculum, training and online tutorials designed to help demystify the
wonderful world of embedded electronics. We're here to help you start
something.
