Circuit Cellar, The Magazine for Computer Applications, is the only magazine that is focused on needs of hands-on designers, engineers, and programmers of microcomputer hardware and software. And it's been that way for over a decade! Born out of Steve Ciarcia's popular BYTE column, "Ciarcia's Circuit Cellar," Circuit Cellar magazine presents the tools, techniques, and creative solutions that are of immediate practical value. Circuit Cellar enhances your electronics design skills by offering unique and interesting applications through complete projects, practical tutorials, and useful design techniques. Maintaining its tradition of editorial excellence, Circuit Cellar was, is, and will continue to be the publication for the technically sophisticated engineers, programmers, and technicians who are still rolling up their sleeves and moving the computer industry forward.

Steve Ciarcia has built an international reputation as a consultant, engineer, and author in a career spanning over twenty years. Millions of people around the world have followed Steve as he built advanced computers, designed impressive intelligence into the control of his home, explored speech synthesis and communications, and explained leading-edge technology through the use of practical, working projects.

He published those ideas in the most popular column in the leading computer magazine for twelve years. By receiving and answering several hundred letters from readers each month, he learned what people want to see in a magazine. Circuit Cellar, The Magazine for Computer Applications is the result.

Steve first conceived of Circuit Cellar as a supplement to his "Ciarcia's Circuit Cellar" column in BYTE. When Steve left BYTE, he saw an opportunity to continue providing practical, hands-on information to readers who built and program computer applications. Circuit Cellar is today a realization of Steve's desire to serve the kind of reader who supported him through a successful column and nearly a dozen books.

Tom Cantrell has been a contributing editor for Circuit Cellar since its first issue in 1988. The following year, he started writing his Silicon Update column, which introduces and analyzes the prospects of the latest ICs each month. This Silicon Valley insider has worked at Intel, published articles in many computing magazines, and presented at various conferences. You may also know him as a member of Embedded Systems Conference advisory committee.

With over 20 years of microcomputer market experience and a Masters in Business from UCLA, Tom is able to give direction to survey and focus groups, delivering valuable insight on market and product trends.

Jeff Bachiochi (pronounced "BAH-key-AH-key") began his electronics career working for one of the premier synthesizer companies, Electronic Music Laboratories. Jeff was recruited in the early 1980s to support Steve's Ciarcia's "Circuit Cellar column" in BYTE magazine. Since then, he has accumulated over 15 years of experience as a Design Engineer developing many products for the embedded control market. In addition to his engineering duties, Jeff writes the popular "From the Bench" column featured in Circuit Cellar. FTB focuses on the education of new and often unusual technologies through the development of construction projects. As a staff engineer with Circuit Cellar, Jeff is part of the foundation that has made Circuit Cellar magazine successful. With Jeff's help, readers not only get an education but often times a spot of humor to help stain life's monotony.

George Martin started his career in the aerospace industry in 1969. After five years at a real job, he set out on his own and cofounded a design and manufacturing firm. Typical systems that George designs include servo-motion control, graphical input and output, data acquisition, and remote control.

George is a charter member of  the Ciarcia Design Works team and most recently, he’s been working on the people-tracking system for Bill Gates' new house.
