Device styles: n1, n2, n3
Currently, we offer three different variations of our Nanolog Devices™: "N1", "N2", and "N3". The differences reflect to the varying "thickness" of the active carbon layer in each device.
The thickness determines how the devices conduct voltage, which then shapes and colours the final tonal output. This is how we class our products:

device packaging
We have recently transitioned to a new form of packaging called "Chip on Board" (CoB).
This new packaging style has several benefits for builders:
|
device dimensions
device installation
This new packaging design is quite versatile as it offers three different ways to integrate a Nanolog Device into a circuit:
|
circuit design
Most directly, Nanolog Devices can act as a drop-in replacement for an anti-parallel diode array. They are non-linear, symmetrical devices.
We have tested our Nanolog Devices™ in several circuit designs, and find that the devices have more pronounced benefits in certain circuit types. Please see our technical document to view these circuits (page 4). Of note, in order to use the non-linear I-V curve for clipping, some amplifier needs to be used. |

testing
We've done extensive testing to ensure that our products will perform at their maximum potential under even the most intense environmental factors.
The current CoB design has been tested successfully at:
Every single one of our devices undergo many tests to ensure they leave our facilities at peak performance. |
product history
We were fortunate to work closely with the legendary Dr. Scientist to create the first commercial guitar pedal ever to use this quantum tunneling technology. And since the Heisenberg Molecular Overdrive, we at Nanolog Audio have launched our own pedal designs.
Recently, Tom Cram (previously with Digitech) of Spiral Electric FX has created an awesome fuzz pedal line using our devices, the Black Spiral. Today, there are proven and awesome sounding pedals in the market that use our Nanolog Devices™. The very first steps into the unknown have been taken. And now we know it works, and performs tremendously. That being said, there is much uncharted terrain left to explore here. Your design will be one of the very first products in the world that uses molecular electronics. If nothing else, we think that's pretty neat. |
technical support
As much as we want to see our own product lines flourish, more than anything, we want to see our technology being used to the best of its abilities. This is truly where our passion lies.
Now, we have over 5 years experimenting with these devices, seeing how they work with prototypes, and building out full product lines. We're happy to share building tips, and facilitate your designing process to the best of our abilities. |
