Zephyr is such a great project, I really have enjoyed working with it and the Nordic (NRF5x) is awesome. I think over the next 3-5 years it is really going to get more and more adoption compared to alternatives like freertos or vxworks.

RHELs model is to support such ancient versions of software that they don't have to support many pieces of software, because the features most people would rely on aren't in 3, 5 or 10 year old software. If it wasn't effect

Not OP, but he did caveat it with saying some decisions , which I assume he meant that cutting costs on an overstaffed org is a good idea, but maybe cutting 70% before you have a good idea what they do might have been a bad way to do it. Y

You should look at atiny10s too, they have a 6 pin and through hole version and you can use them without a crystal. I have thought about making a design for one and doing a series where we make an assembler in python, where it's an exe

Depends on use case, for me at least, I have used RP2040s as secondary microcontrollers for something like a CM4, where I want something that is closer to real time, or if it is a control loop.

Nice, have you thought about doing the same but with a RP2040? JLCPCB have it as an extended part now, so you can have it done with their pcb assembly service. The memory adds another $0.50-$1, so overall it might be ~$1 or $2 more, but I k

It isn't too terrible to just play with it. You have a schema capture tool (eeschema) and a board design (pcbnew). Start a new project, then start doing your circuit design in eeschema. I personally always disable move on zoom and inst

Diptrace isn't too bad, they also have a cheap version [1] for non-commercial use if you need more than just 2 layer boards. Only thing is I wish they had a native OSX version. https://diptrace.com/buy/non-profit&#

Altium is resting on their laurels though, whereas KiCad is actually picking up velocity and adoption. One of the biggest things the EDA industry lacks (and altium doesn't even support until you pay them big money) is meaningful automa

IMHO its better than OrCAD, probably as good or better than diptrace and about on par with Altium for people without managed libraries. Once they improve their library management system, it will surpass Altium in nearly every way possible.

No, but as a former altium user who was burned by altium, if you aren't working on a team with multiple users, it is well worth the pain to get rid of altium. There are some muscle memory things you might have frustrations with the fir

Yea, I have looked at F360 EDA and there are a lot of features that either are buggy as hell or just don't exist. I'm not sure that F360 is going to get much uptake from EEs until the software has had a few more years to bake an

This really feels like one of those situations where they hired a CEO to just parrot / run interference for whatever the owner wants, so they can put distance between themselves and the decisions they make. In some ways, I kind of feel

I would smash my head in a door before being reliant on google and their (lack of) support for any business critical services. It's fine as a secondary, but my god would it make me really nervous if that was the primary cloud platform.

Assuming they deliver on a timetable they say they will, which intel has had a well established track record of not doing. With intel, over the last 5-10 years I don't believe anything they say until there are chips in peoples hands

I highly doubt this is what their board had in mind when they said, "we need you to be on track to being profitable by q4 of 2023 so an IPO can take place". I also don't trust what they are saying with regards to 90% will fal

WCH has a bunch of new ones that have come out recently, like the CH32V003 and CH32V307 [1]. I would start there, they are close enough and could probably run micropython since they have some that have reasonable amounts of SRAM. I think th
