 Okay, so um the current winner the weekly champion of not delivering chips to us is microchip. Sorry microchip We are getting some but it is it is there are some that they they're they're they're leading the pack on Consistently not not leading the pack. I'm not leading the pack. So here's the one that we're not gonna get for two years Sam be 51 the same if you won G19 a two-year lead time This is getting a little bit ridiculous But you know, I just saw this because I got a notice from them, you know, we do have orders booked, but What's interesting is is many other chips that we were unable to get are are now available And it's I think interesting that The microchip chips especially like the Sam D 21 and 51 and some other components The lead times are still stretching out, you know, basically Three years total from the beginning. So not sure what's going on there Here's my question and suggestion. So wait, I'm gonna make a suggestion then we can ask you a question So, okay, it says alternative product inventory. I'm gonna get to that in a second, but there wasn't any yet Yeah, but here's what I think at this point. I think microchip should, you know, they're on social media. They have All the same tools we all have just say like, hey, here's here's where the chips are going Here's why it's two years away. Here's why they weren't available really long at this point So like, yeah, we all kind of like suffered through the last couple years It's coming up on like year three now But at this point, you know, we're kind of getting chips from everybody else So it would be interesting to know is like is it automotive because that's the first thing we heard Is it something else? Is it military? What is it? Well, I mean, there's some chips that I've definitely got end of line because they're like look the The fab isn't using this process anymore. I could get that but this I don't I don't completely understand the two-year Like anything is okay after two-year lead time There's just no information and so that's it. So just getting back to something it said This is my question for you lady as our public service. If you were designing something that used to use a samd What is these 51 50 ones if you were using a samd 51 in the past, what would you use instead right now? Well, it's not a complete identical, you know matchup, but The rp20 40 is the closest thing and it's it doesn't have as many peripherals I mean the microchip samd 51 has Great peripherals, but at this point, you know, you can pretty much get the esp 32 And you can get you know family of chips and you can get the rp20 40 stm32 is even i'm starting to see i'm starting to see Yeah, the stm's are coming in. I'm actually starting to see like stm f1 I would have said the stm's were going to be the ones that were going to be the laggy I thought they would be the laggiest, but actually the stm f1s and f4s and f3s i'm starting to i'm starting to see Then come back into existence. We're still getting some teensy so xp free scale Is able to get some parts, but like You know i'm getting chips from analog. We got you know the ad chips and maxim I'm getting parts in I mean those are not microcontrollers their Nordic has never had actually if nordic has been able to supply almost consistently throughout this entire If microchips watching this just send us a video we'll play it on Chip shortage or you can send us a reel and we'll put you on the real world You have a segment stm 32 f seven series though. You're still screwed and a lot of fj's are still screwed But the the I'm actually shocked. So I you know the stm If you can use the stm 32 f4 series, there's a lot that are very compatible with the the microchip Um, but yeah, I go unfortunately right now I think the the the thing I'm seeing most people do is just go straight to the rp20 40 reason 137 that we did circuit python because the core can go across all the different processors Because there's a lot of different ones that are out there. It's a bummer because I really really aren't available and are available I really really love and love the sandwich from the sandwich one came out I was just like this is my favorite chip and we made so much hardware with it and you know, I'm just It's a little crushing. So tune in next week. Maybe we'll do microchip again But uh, whatever is available. We do real world and whatever I just wanted to warn people that there is them There's you know, I'm seeing some at megas but there's still This was still a little shocking us like two years really And that's your shortage
