Contests, Boards, and Pi! Oh My!

Newark™ element14 Celebrates National Engineers Week
by Amelia Dalton

This week’s Fish Fry is brought to you by you. Yes, you. The DSP dude. The Coder chick. The Analog Grand Master. We’re celebrating engineers in all shapes, sizes, and process nodes. With National Engineers Week just around the corner, my guest this week is Tamara Jurgenson (Newark element14), and we’re gonna chat about Newark element14’s month-long engineering party.

I’m giving everyone the chance to win a LaunchPad Evaluation Kit courtesy of Texas Instruments, but you’ll have to listen to find out how to enter to win.
