<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@whitequark" class="u-url mention">@<span>whitequark</span></a></span> &quot;tell us you don&#39;t actually know how to make working flash memory without actually telling us&quot; ... these workarounds are amazing, How did they justify shipping this?</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@whitequark" class="u-url mention">@<span>whitequark</span></a></span> how does this even happen? Failure to return the individual transistors cut into the silicon to a high Z state on reset pull?</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@whitequark" class="u-url mention">@<span>whitequark</span></a></span> how the fuck did they even find the root cause there and if they can do analysis like that how did this product end up with so many insane issues lol</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://social.mildlyfunctional.gay/@artemist" class="u-url mention">@<span>artemist</span></a></span> well in this device ethernet works very questionably too so yes</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@whitequark" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>whitequark</span></a></span> reminded of a microchip ethernet MCU with the errata "ethernet doesn't work"</p>

<p>their estimated attrition rate over 10 years is *one percent of all MCUs shipped* even if you keep them powered on so they can ECC themselves</p><p>this is bonkers</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://chaos.social/@uint8_t" class="u-url mention">@<span>uint8_t</span></a></span> still sold even</p>

<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@whitequark" class="u-url mention">@<span>whitequark</span></a></span> it’s wild how this device found its way to market</p>

<p>it also has other errata, like &quot;JTAG doesn&#39;t work&quot; and &quot;PWM doesn&#39;t work&quot; and &quot;timers don&#39;t work&quot; and &quot;ADCs don&#39;t work&quot; and &quot;we don&#39;t know how to do CDC&quot; ... well you get the idea. read the full document!</p>
