from the voting-FTW dept.

Make is currently holding voting on the PSoC (Programmable System-on-Chip) maker challenge.

Each of the projects entered in the contest had to use the new PSoC 4 BLE Pioneer Kit, a new IoT-focused developer kit manufactured by Cypress. There aren’t a lot of entries in this contest, but they are all really high caliber. And you will decide the final few projects that our judges will weigh in on. There’s one week to cast votes for your favorite project/s. You can cast one vote per project per day for as many projects as you wish through April 15.

The entries include a 'portable ECG monitoring system over BLE,' a 'smart board game', and an 'electric bicycle data collection and logging service for battery health and lifecycle monitoring'.

    Indeed. Same for FPGA and PLA (although I believe Lattice may be an exception). Other than the fear of exposing themselves to patent litigation, why are these companies so reluctant to even provide the documentation for their products?

    At least FPGA tools run on Linux.
