Everybody's favorite app note writer was on NPR recently for
his hi-tech sculptures:

Now we see where the pictures of prototypes at the end of the
Linear Technology app notes come from :).

Looks like he collaborated with Fred B on design #4 :)
 
I read in sci.electronics.design that Fred Bloggs <nospam@nospam.com>
wrote (in <415E8143.6050306@nospam.com>) about '48 Nobel Laureates
Endorse Kerry', on Sat, 2 Oct 2004:

"We can't have a 21st century military unless we're using 21st century
technology and preparing our forces for 21st century threats. We need a
military that is equipped for the next fight, not the last one,"
He wants to overturn perfectly normal 20th century military policy?
Those generals always want to fight the battles of their youth over
again. (;-)

You must have been taking oratory lessons from Teresa.

At least she isn't a paid prostitute like your wife.


How did you know I am secretly married to Teresa?

That's clearly another lie- Theresa prefers virile men.


That leaves you out (she told me so).
I am more for Martha Stewart anyway- no way in hell a wimp like you
could handle her.

You are a liar! There is no reality in your world. You are such a sick
worthless psychopath that by your worthless idiotic reasoning the entire
function of mankind since the time of Adam and Eve has culminated in
your new god, GW BUsh. What a sick p.o.s. you are!

John, Do you have a URL for the paper? I can't seem to Google my way
to it. Thanks!

I demonstrated through citations from the administration about their own
reasonings and by the purpose of the UN resolutions they worked for and then
relied upon that it was not a "huge factor." I'm open to clear evidence to the
contrary, Tom.

Incidentally, his book is more than worth its exhorbitant price. Lots
of good stuff and fun to read.

the following:

Hello Everyone,

I am a Masters student in Electrical Engineering. I want to do my
thesis in Mixed Signal Design. In my university, my advisor doesnt do
any *research*, so he asked me to pick a topic for my master thesis
myself. Can you guys please give me some hints or links from where I
can start off on deciding my thesis.

Thanks in Advance,
ConfusedSoul
Um, what have you been doing for the last 5 years? Pick one of them.
Maybe your weakest subject, and your thesis could be about self-improvement
by RTFM or something. :)

Good Luck!
Rich

And what do you call that "Marketing blurb" that lays out nothing but

You sure couldn't sell me one ;-)

Naaah you missed the point of the question. The description of the software is
valid. I just don't know what to call it !

It genuinely does work. If you were in the market concerned I'd give you one
knowing you'd be back for more (marketing told me to say that).

"self-tuning" and "auto-tuning" and "adaptive tuning" has been used for PIDs.
(I've seen this kind of thing on closed-loop control products for years.) I
suppose "smart" has been used, too. Some of these products seem similar in
principal to what you are saying, in the sense that they start with an assumed
response function which is deconvolved with the desired output function to yield
an input control function. Then the assumed response function is "improved"
over time as actual input functions versus output functions are evaluated, and
saved.

But I'm sure the sales folks will find something they like better than anything
an engineer might say about it. Perhaps they should test the waters with their
customers to see which terms turn them off and which terms sound good. Just let
them figure it out and they'll be happier, I think.

I like "adaptive" but not the "tuning"

Adaptive *something" would be good I think.

You are paid Bush campaign operative- you are a disruptive troublemaker,

with the following:

You seem to have this trouble with hypothetical arguments that are used
to showed contradictions, thereby showing that said hypothetical
argument is false. You seem to think that one is actually claiming the
arguments are true absolutely.

Again, why do I bother. I am conversing with children.

Or mirrors.

Whatever.
