Compilers, Counterfeits, and Contests

In this week’s Fish Fry, I check out some recent rumblings in the world of EE venture capital and investigate why both Applied Materials and the CIA are interested in Infinite Power Solutions. Also this week, I look into the newest developments in compilers from Microchip Technology and examine a recent report by the US Senate Armed Services Committee about counterfeit parts used in military applications.

Also this week, I have a TI MSP-EXP430FR5739 Experimenter Board (courtesy of Mouser) to throw your way, but you’ll have to tune in to find out how to win.

Enable Sustainable Enterprises of the Future
Did you know that buildings are responsible for 40% of global energy consumption and 33% of greenhouse gas emissions? One way we can help both modernize and increase sustainability in our buildings is by adding 10BASE-T1L to our building controllers. In this episode of Chalk Talk, Amelia Dalton chats with Salem Gharbi from Analog Devices about how we can enable sustainable enterprises with ethernet connected building controllers. They examine the10BASE-T1L flexible design solutions that Analog Devices offers, how exiting?building infrastructure can take advantage of 10BASE-T1L and how you can get started on your next sustainable enterprise journey.
