THE MOBILE PHONEBOOK Honorable Mention Winner.
June 30, 2005
"The
M16C Design Contest 2005 offered the perfect opportunity to explore the
M16C family of powerful microcontrollers. When Renesas and Circuit
Cellar announced the competition to find the best M16C-based
applications, designers from around the world took the challenge. In
all, 20 countries were represented. Participants
submitted a wide range of projects, everything from an altimeter to an
autonomous robot to a digital instrument panel. The variety and quality
of the applications demonstrated not only the high caliber of the
M16C/28, M16C/62P, M32C/84, and R8C/13 microcontrollers, but also the
ingenuity of the projects’ designers. The contest judges were charged with the task of selecting the best among the pool of well-engineered projects. The top 13 projects were chosen based on their technical merit, originality, usefulness, cost-effectiveness, and design optimization. Congratulations to all of the winners!" Circuit
Cellar Magazine, September 2005 Letter from Circuit Cellar to Carlos Cossio dated September 7, 2005: Dear Carlos, Congratulations on winning Honorable Mention in the Renesas M16C Design Contest 2005! Enclosed please find your prize check for $1,000. I wanted to personally thank you for participating in the contest. Your hard work helped raise the level of competition. Your project was judged to be the best among a variety of high-quality designs. Your framed Certificate will be shipped separately in recognition of your accomplishment. The president of Renesas wants to sign the Certificates himself, but did not want to hold up the prize checks in the process. The Certificates will be mailed in a few weeks. On behalf of Renesas and Circuit Cellar, thank you again for participating in the M16C contest. I hope to see your name among the entrants to one of our other upcoming Circuit Cellar contests. Sincerely, Jennifer Huber
