It's very nice outside on this beautiful Silicon Valley Friday. As I
consider my weekend and the fun things that I might see, including the
White Sox coming to town to beat the A's, I saw something that many of
you might relate to. It made me chuckle. We, like many engineering
related companies, get catalogs from Digikey and Mouser. We love Mouser
as a supplier of parts and a distributor of our SchmartBoards....but we
get way more catalogs from them than we have employees. What is one to
do with these extra bulky catalogs of more than 1000 pages? We came up
with a solution as you can see in the photo. Mouser now supplies us
with fresh air as well as ICs.
SchmartBoard won an award for Electronic Circuit Prototyping Boards from the U.S. Commerce Association. This year Intellect Lab, SchmartBoard's sister company, also won for Hardware Design. Not a bad way to end a week.
