What is the Circuit Bending Wiki?
The Circuit Bending Wiki is an ongoing community project dedicated to documenting, archiving, and sharing information related to Circuit Bending. We hope it serves as a central hub for circuit benders to share information in a way that is collaborative and easily navigable.
Topics covered here can be broad or narrow. Articles on broad bending concepts and specific devices are both encouraged. If it’s useful to circuit benders, it belongs here!
We’d also like this wiki to serve as an archive of sorts, a place for the community to preserve existing info from around the web. Bending schematics, service manuals, chip pinouts, and even personal build notes are all encouraged. Each article has a “Community Documentation” section where users can upload their own findings, or archive info from around the web.
Our List of Articles page is a good place to start. There you can view every page on the wiki, sorted by topic.
If you’re looking for service manuals, you can view our cataloged List of Service Manuals. You might also find our List of Resources page useful, a list of links to sites with valuable technical info for circuit benders.
If you’d like to contribute, you should first visit our Planned Articles page. Any articles you’d like to suggest can also be added to this page.
If you have any images or PDFs you’d like to archive or share (service manuals, schematics, diagrams of bend points, etc), you can upload them on our special:upload page.
This wiki depends on your input!
The circuit bending wiki is a collaborative endeavor, and it’s growth and utility ultimately depends on your input.
If you have useful information on a particular device, feel free to contribute it! If a page for the device doesn’t exist, create it! Info gathered from work on your own personal projects and builds is encouraged. Things like schematics and diagrams of bend points are all acceptable.
If you’re interested in helping build this wiki, but feel you don’t have any meaningful info to contribute, please see our Planned Articles page. Each article has an existing template for you to work from, and many are meant to compile & archive information from the sites linked in our List of Resources page. If you’re a beginner intent on contributing to this wiki, it’s a good place to start.
If you have any files you’d like to contribute or archive (things like service manuals, chip pinouts, or PDF tutorials), you can upload them here!
