CircuitCon

I spent last week in San Francisco at ISSCC, which was very cool. Among other things, I saw an awesome paper on a hysteretic power amp for ADSL, learned more than I ever wanted to about imaging sensors, and saw bunches of papers on exotic futurey stuff like carbon nanotube and organic transistors.

Also, I got to see some Bay Area buddies, went to a hottt sushi place with Katherine, and picked me up a new suit at Ralph Lauren. Unconscionably hot, unreasonably expensive.

Next up: IVy, the aforementioned IV-18 clock. Also, Ignignokt and Err PCB layouts, one-sided for easy thermal transfer and home etching, and including a very clever 555 circuit for controlling a boost converter as cheaply as humanly possible. More details soon.
