Day in the Life of an Agilent EEsof EDA Chiphead

Posted November 25th, 2008 by Colin Warwick · 6 Comments · Humor

My entry to the DesignCon® 2009 Video Contest is entitled "Day in the Life of an Agilent EEsof EDA Chiphead®". Is there really an upcoming ISO 1984 standard? Find out in this (hopefully) hilarious parody of a famous series of YouTube videos.

    I love the Simulation vs. Measurement results :-)

    Thanks, Amolak. I’d like to point out that no printed circuit boards were harmed in the making of this video. (Trade secret: My wife wouldn’t let me put a real PCB in our blender, so I used a sheet of nori, the seaweed used for making sushi, instead. )

    If 5sec of “frappe” did that, I’d hate to see 10 sec of some serious mincing…. Can you do smoothies too? Thanks for this very humerous look in the world of a chip head.

    Thanks, Mark. I’ll make a note of your suggestions: be sure to check back for further episodes in the series…

    Do you have a model of a Flux capacitor? I want to run convolution in reverse to see where I went wrong and hopefully find the cause. Thanks!

    Hi Graham, sorry. That would take one point twenty-one jigawatts of power into the blender. I only have a 250 amp service to my home. :-)
