MULINO, OR -- Printed circuit board fabricator Sunstone Circuits announced winners of its “Share Your Story” contest for PCB designers.

The contest, launched Oct. 10, gave design engineers a chance to share PCB-related design successes online with peers. Once a story was submitted, the design engineer was then able to send the link to family and friends, who then voted for the best project. The votes were tallied, and three lucky winners are each walking away with an Apple iPad, a customized iPad case, plus a $25 iTunes gift card.

The three winners and their stories are:

• Clive Bolton: My First Circuit Board: Pong Video Game – 488 votes
• Steve Ranta: I Designed my PCBs at Disneyland! – 360 votes
• Ken Sheets: Building my First PCB with my Dad – 201 votes

“I took part in the contest because circuit boards are a big part of my life. As an electrical engineer, there are few things as satisfying as seeing and bringing to life something you've designed. For me, that's a circuit board,” Bolton said.
