Data sheets and manuals are not written "by engineers for engineers"; that's nonsense. They are written for those knowledgeable in the discipline. If you have not taken the time to make yourself knowledgeable then it's on you. If you don't understand the information in the manual then get a basic book on electronics and educate yourself. There is nothing in the manual that anyone with a basic understanding of electronics wouldn't understand.

Contrary to what (it appears) many people on this forum think, electronics and microcontroller programming isn't some "plug 'n play" hobby. It requires a great deal of time to gain the knowledge to succeed. Yes, I am knowledgeable in the field. This didn't happen by accident; I've spent a great deal of time reading books, manuals and data sheets. I began with the fundamentals and worked up from there. Once you spend the time you'll begin to see that the "unusual new ideas" are neither "unusual" or "new" and are in fact rubbish from people that haven't spent the time up front to know what they are talking about.

I feel so sorry for tech support guys; I really do.

P.S. Your little "quote" about Communism is complete crap.
OOOO!!!!!!
An attitude!!!

This forum is about helping people. Maybe you have never needed help in understanding or have never ask a question???

Yes, there are many who come here looking for a copy/paste solution. They get "weeded".
There are many who do not have the years behind them to have learned.
There are many that come from another language or discipline also. Are they to be ridiculed?

IF
you think the people truly trying to learn are beneath you
THEN
BUZZ OFF!!!!
ELSE
never mind
just
BUZZ OFF...
