Titans of Electronics

What do Michael Faraday, the NE555 timer, and the Intel 4004 all have in common? They changed the world — and now they’re trading cards.

Zenode is launching Titans of Electronics, a collectible card set celebrating the pioneers and components that shaped our industry. Equal parts history and fun, these cards capture the quirky, brilliant, and sometimes chaotic path of electronics in a way no textbook ever could.

Who’s in the Pack?

Each set features a mix of:

Pioneers – Edison (brought electric light to the world), Tesla (the wizard of AC power), Claude Shannon (father of information theory), Ada Lovelace (the first programmer), Einstein, Von Neumann, Turing, Jensen Huang, and many more.
Components – From the workhorse 1N4148 diode to the groundbreaking Intel 4004 microprocessor to the timeless NE555 timer.

Each card pairs retro-animated artwork with a surprising bio in under 150 characters. Example:

How to Get Them

There are only two ways to get a set:

Catch us at a conference where Zenode is presenting.
Sign up for Zenode as a paying customer.

Bonus for Early Believers

The first 1,000 users to sign up will also receive a custom card featuring themselves in the collection — your own place among the Titans.

Why Cards?

Because electronics isn’t just datasheets and solder fumes. It’s stories of brilliance, accidents, and breakthroughs:

Joseph Fourier brought a thermometer everywhere and survived the guillotine.
Steve Wozniak prank-called the Vatican pretending to be Henry Kissinger.
The 2N2222 transistor quietly powers radios, toys, and satellites alike.

These are the legends worth collecting.

Join the Hunt

The Titans of Electronics are our tribute to the people and parts that built our world. Come see us at a conference or join Zenode to claim your set. and maybe even your own custom card.
