Editorial Standards & Policy

1. Verification & Primary Source Documentation

Every technical claim published on InventorsGrid must be directly anchored in verifiable evidence. Our research prioritizes primary engineering documentation:

• Official circuit schematics, board layouts, and PCB Gerber archives.
• Manufacturer component datasheets, pinout diagrams, and silicon errata sheets.
• Public repositories (GitHub, GitLab, Codeberg) containing inspectable firmware source code.
• Published peer-reviewed papers, conference proceedings, or verified test documentation.

We clearly distinguish between manufacturer-rated specifications, theoretical engineering models, and measured laboratory data.

2. Truthful Testing & Measurement Standards

We do not claim to have physically manufactured, assembled, bench-tested, or instrument-probed a circuit unless verified measurement logs and physical test evidence exist. When an article analyzes third-party open-source designs, we describe it strictly as schematic and firmware analysis rather than firsthand lab testing.

3. Attribution & Open-Source Hardware Ethics

We celebrate the creators of open hardware. Every article prominently attributes original designers, development teams, and relevant open licenses (such as CERN-OHL, TAPR OHL, MIT, BSD, and Apache 2.0). We link directly to original project repositories to ensure creators receive full credit.

4. Transparent Corrections & Errata

When an error is discovered—whether a typo, misidentified component, or incorrect register description—we correct it promptly and transparently:

• Minor Typographical Adjustments: Corrected immediately with updated timestamps.
• Substantive Technical Corrections: A clear, dated correction notice is appended at the top of the article detailing the original wording and the corrected technical information.

If you spot an error or have additional hardware documentation to share, please contact our editorial desk at skrelectronicslab@gmail.com.
