David’s blog actually sprang to life in April of this year, so if you want to watch all of the episodes you have some catching up to do<\/a>.\u00a0 However, some of the most hilarious episodes are also the most recent.\u00a0 For example, here is David’s very honest review of the Microchip PICkit 3<\/a>, a development tool for Microchip PIC microcontrollers<\/a>:<\/p>\n

And here is Microchip’s equally hilarious response:

David’s blog has covered a lot of other cool topics, such as exploding capacitors<\/a>, equipment teardowns<\/a>, and microcontroller datasheets<\/a>.\u00a0 Check EEVblog<\/a> out!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
