Hello,

This week brings about a little change to ElectronicDesign, where we will now be amassing the prior week's articles and interesting content into a weekly summary web page on the site.

"Electronic Design Weekly is our answer to the deluge of search engine responses, automatic content feeds, and chatbots. It’s our weekly focus on articles that we’ve posted from technical sources, including our own authors, many of whom are engineers by trade.

One thing you will notice is the In This Issue at the top. This is the index to our table of contents which is the rest of the issue. You can quickly jump to a section and check out the latest items from feature stories to multimedia podcast and videos to editors' picks of articles on other sites. We hope you read ours first but we know you have a wide variety of interests and there is a lot of good content on the web, if you can find it. 

You will also want to check out the Illustrated Engineering section that will have regularly appearing art from our editors." -Bill Wong's blog

I have a couple of sections in Electronic Design Weekly where I will be contributing original content, in addition to my esteemed colleagues. The first is in Andy's Picks from Around the Web, which is pretty much a copy of the From Around the Web feature in this newsletter, and the second is in Illustrated Engineering section where I'll be running a weekly comic cartoon series I'm calling, "Inventors"—I'm hoping it'll generate some spit-takes and chuckles as I take on the tech, workplace, engineering, etc. world from an engineer's eye, perhaps filling the void that the demise of Dilbert left behind (but actually funny).

Unfortunately, I don't have a way to embed the comic into this newsletter (yet...), but I can link a page in the archive section of this newsletter that has them collected in order of publication date in EDW.

You can access Electronic Design Weekly from a link I'll provide in this newsletter on Thursdays, or catch it on the main page as it starts to build out earlier in the week - it's a live document that closes off the following Monday.

enjoy,

p.s. nobody said there wouldn't be math, so I suggest reading that first article on crystal oscillators with freshly-caffeinated morning-brain.
