When Pakistan finally took the field against the UAE in Dubai on Wednesday, the Asia Cup match began under a cloud that had little to do with form or tactics. An hour-long delay, frantic calls between Lahore and Dubai, and the sudden spectre of a boycott turned routine pre-match preparations into a full-blown media circus. This episode was not an isolated burst of indignation. It was the latest in a familiar pattern: a board that prizes theatrics and brinkmanship over consistency, with players left carrying the collateral damage. Fans can debate whether the handshake snub was provocation, misunderstanding, or politicisation by India. The bigger question is simpler: did the PCB protect its players, or use them as bargaining chips? The answer is grimly obvious. Yes, there is merit in defending players from perceived slights. But there is a world of difference between a quiet procedural protest and a public demand that risks boycotting a tournament. One seeks resolution. The other seeks optics. The PCB chose optics — and the players bore the weight. In the latest episode of the Sledging Room podcast, Akshay Ramesh, Alan John and Debodinna Chakraborty discuss how Pakistan scored an own goal, again!  Produced by Nikhil Khattar   Sound mixed by Aman Pal

This week on EYE ON NPI we're featuring some open source hardware from one of our favorite hardware manufacturers! It's the Arduino Nano R4 System on Module (https://www.digikey.com/en/product-highlight/a/arduino/nano-r4) a miniaturized version of the Arduino UNO R4 and Minima (https://blog.adafruit.com/2023/07/27/eye-on-npi-arduino-uno-r4-minima-and-uno-r4-wifi-boards-digikey-arduino-digikey-adafruit/) versions we covered on EYE ON NPI about two years ago! taking a cue from popular 'castellated single side' PCB proto boards on the market, the Nano comes in two options, one with headers (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/arduino/ABX00143/26766495) for easy installation into existing Arduino Nano expansion kits or breadboards, and one with reflowable castellations (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/arduino/ABX00142/26766490) The Arduino Nano (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/arduino/A000005/2638989) is second only to the UNO as the definitive Arduino board that 'everyone got started with'. Many folks would start with the chunky UNO and then migrate to the Nano to get something that plugs into a breadboard for compact assembly. With a USB connector on one end, button and LEDs and programming header on the top, this board powered tens of thousands of builds. So it's not surprising that Arduino iterated on this design with a wide variety of chips like the RP2040 (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/arduino/ABX00052/14123941) and ESP32 (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/arduino/ABX00092/21219771) The latest generation is the Renesas RA4M1 series - which updates the original ATmega328 8-bit microcontroller to a beefy Cortex M4 with FPU. You get 48MHz clock, 256KB of Flash, 32KB of SRAM, ADC, DAC, CAN, captouch and other extras. The FPU in particular makes it a nice upgrade to the cortex M0/M0+. The best part is that with the 5V logic support of the R7FA4M1AB3CFM (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/renesas-electronics-corporation/R7FA4M1AB3CFM-AA0/10447195), it makes for a great drop-in replacement when a 3V logic chip like the RP2040/ESP32 won't work as well. Plus you get lots of nice linear ADCs, the RP2040 only has 4 and the ESP32's are non-linear and sometimes don't work when WiFi is active. We also love that they added a Qwiic (https://www.sparkfun.com/qwiic) connector on the end! We use this for all our Stemma QT sensors, and between the many companies that have joined in the ecosystem there are easily a thousand different ons/displays/accessories that can plug in directly for instant expansion. If you want to get the latest Nano from the manufacturer of genuine Arduino boards, DigiKey is a authentic distributor and has tons of the Arduino Nano R4 (https://www.digikey.com/short/3brjrnjp) in stock right now for (https://www.digikey.com/en/products/detail/arduino/ASX00061/26744081) immediate shipment! Pick from the castellated flat or soldered-header variety, and don't forget to also grab some Arduino Nano accessories to get your design prototyped fast. Order today and your Nano will fly out of the DigiKey warehouse and arrive at your doorstep by tomorrow morning.

(Re-broadcast, LIVE was not working for all social media on Sunday night, so here ya go! This week at our desk, we spent a lot of our focused engineering time working on e-paper display drivers. These displays are a lot more annoying than TFTs, which have settled on standardized MIPI command sets. Also, they have custom "waveforms" used to configure the refresh technique. By default, we use the built-in waveforms from OTP memory, but it's possible to load new waveforms, letting us do funky stuff like coax 4-grayscale out of a "monochrome" display. We also designed a simple moisture sensor PCB for an ultra-low-cost kit to be used by students—sometimes it's okay to under-design for cost reasons!
