	Description:		Dave has been dealing with an over-zealous, “over-unity” power…person. Ring was bought by Amazon. It was on Sharktank as DoorBot. Our Survey is still open and we have had some great responses. You can win a 1000X if you take the survey. Results will be posted later. Dave’s wondering how people prefer to control power supplies. Maplin is finally shutting down. They have taken the slow nose dive behind Radio Shack and Tandy. Toggle the bot Chris has a soft goal of “no longer saying he’s bad at software“. He’s been using the educational JLink debugger from SEGGER. State of Electronics keeps posting nice videos lately Visiting the LIFX bulb factory Machine plastic Microchip is looking to buy Microsemi. (after the show was recorded this was confirmed).The latter makes FPGAs and was always jockeying for the number 3 or 4 position with Lattice (who make the parts described by Clifford Wolf when he was on the show) Amazon also bought a company making chips that are used in low power video monitoring equipment. Sign up for The Amp Hour newsletter (below this post or on the home page) to get notified of new episodes and possibly when there are links posts. You can now get an “on demand” Amp Hour T-shirt (instead of bulk buying through teespring) and a Widlar poster if you’d like. Update: Dave’s testing with Toggle may have been all for naught!
