That's probably the main reason. Adafruit is competition for Sparkfun. Sparkfun isn't covering itself in glory in this matter either.

Trying to understand this - the third party would want a reseller discount so they can make a profit, and then Adafruit would also want a reseller discount so they can make a profit. I struggle to see how Adafruit would then be able to remain...

it's not if that helps paul, and not my intention either. here is a way to prove it, when there is a shipping product, if that even happens, i will not be posting about it here, if i do - totally agree that you should remove the posts and/or me.

thank you @CollinK that is fair and thoughtful, and i appreciate it. for parents with a newborn, there is a lot of overnight downtime between things. it fits my schedule well. i genuinely enjoyed the technical discussions, the benchmarks, and...

At this point, I would recommend both sides to just quit engaging. Go out and enjoy the coming weekend. Touch grass. Spend time with your family. Work on new cool projects (with a teensy!) Arguing the same point over and over is not changing...

the “what does the baby have to do with this” comment is unnecessary. mentioning real life context is not an appeal for sympathy, it’s transparency about how and when work gets done. you can ignore it if you want, but taking a swipe at it adds...

mark, paul decides which discussions are “allowed”. he has made his position clear. i am operating within it. this thread exists because a huge change in teensy’s distribution and it directly affects users and developers here. that makes it...

I've stayed mostly quiet on this matter so far, but I want to make one thing clear. Adafruit can buy Teensy, just not directly from SparkFun. SparkFun has not decided Adafruit is cut off from buying Teensy. In fact, when Robin and I met with...

cool - thanks for adding this paul, because i can now put the details you left out. routing boards through a third party is not a solution. it’s what someone proposes when they’re being pressured and trying to help without confronting the...

to be super duper clear again, “freensy” is not a finalized product name. it’s a working label, shorthand, nothing more. we have not announced a final name, and the naming will be handled carefully, especially given the history around...

Given OP's previous behaviour, closing the thread (for any reason other than their own request) would give them another excuse to act like a victim.

paul, you know from all of our interactions that i will follow your forum rules. if the situation were reversed, you would be allowed to post on the adafruit forums, just like anyone else. our team would allow it. limor makes the final call...

Do not create more threads to advertise RP2350 or products unrelated to Teensy.

a bunch of folks have told us there’s “no way” the rp2350 can do the kinds of audio projects people associate with imx chipsets. cool story. meanwhile, today we ran into a brand-new product from teenage engineering, who tend to ship first and...

@ptorrone Ok going to be a bit different here. First congratulations on your new baby and good luck on getting any sleep. Second - have not seen anything that is 100% open source if you want to include the chip designs used on the any of the...

This thread can now be renamed "Gunfight at the O.K. corral" :)

yes, i see the brand-new accounts that paul is now allowing whose sole purpose is to “dunk on me.” that pattern is obvious, and it’s familiar. historically, a lot of this behavior targeted limor directly. now it’s sliding over to me because i...

the person of course fails to mention we have been moving to kicad, it takes time, we have over 800 open-source hardware certifications, we donate and support kicad, i totally get that there are new people here that are only here to dunk on me...

rp2350 dual-core coremark results: first numbers are in hey folks, just got back from our two-month pediatrician visit and, in between bottles and naps, we had claude code update the coremark repo to support the rp2350 running dual-core...

In the light of recent discussion about "open source Teensy" I would like to ask @PaulStoffregen if there are any plans for new Teensy 5 from PJRC based on 1GHz NXP i.MX RT1170 or maybe other 1GHz microcontroller such as Renesas recent offerings...

But ESP32-P4 has hardware (single precision) FPU and it is 400MHz dual core part.

oh wow, just to be super clear you mean windows 7 as in... https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/lifecycle/products/windows-7 this is good to know, can you tell me more? you're running win7? actively? there are no security updates,. why not move...

It is true that SparkFun has decided not to transact with Adafruit moving forward due to significant violations of our code of conduct (which is posted here: (https://www.sparkfun.com/support#code-of-conduct). You can see the communication we...

Thanks. My take-away is that it's open-source hardware with same size and similar pinout to T3.2/T4.0.

can you do mipi/dsi on the 1062?

hello, nameless sparkfun representative. since you’re replying publicly, let’s be specific. this is about teensy and sparkfun’s role as the exclusive manufacturer and seller of that product. for anyone still reading: in july, we told sparkfun...

you know the ESP-P4 might be a really good option for you because it has MIPI/DSI display support and support for up to 64MB of PSRAM. much more graphics optimized!

“teensy-compatible” does not mean “same chip” or “binary-compatible bootloader.” it never has. by that definition, teensy 2.x, 3.x, and 4.x were already wildly different from each other. different cores, different architectures, different...

that is great to know! thanks for that info - what do you need 1 ghz for? like what microcontroller tasks require it that are not handled by something like pio? please be super specific and point to github examples, or detail it here. based on...

more later, different chips will be supported and more...

i will answer it again, this is helpful for our FAQ, keep asking questions folks and feature requests. you would still use arduino ide (or platformio, or cmake, etc), and get all the standard support for i2c/spi/uart/pwm/adc/i2s/usbh plus of...

If you feel so aggrieved why don't you buy the IC_MKL02Z32_T4_QFN16 from Paul and maker your own Teensies?

let me super clear, since paul and sparkfun (secret rules) cannot. we are not aggrieved, paul has closed sourced the bootloader and upload system for teensies, this is a great opportunity to come up with an open source hardware solution. also...

I’m sorry to hear that things have taken such an unfortunate turn.

us too, but more free open hardware is ahead and you get a free one to beta test, email me pt at adafruit and i'll send one when the prototypes arrive

I want to understand your situation @ptorrone . So you are authorized reseller of Teensy and you were rejected by Sparkfun from buying from them? Did you try buying from DigiKey? They have Teensy's in stock and I am pretty sure that they will be...

thanks tomas for engaging directly and not making assumptions. yes, we are an authorized reseller and have been since the beginning. we were likely the first reseller, and for years we were one of paul’s top channels. i’ve personally helped paul...

for folks who want to suggest features elsewhere too, it's on eevblog and other places ... https://www.eevblog.com/forum/microcontrollers/open-source-teensy-compatible-what-features-do-you-want/

There has been drama between Adafruit and SparkFun. I'm not prepared to comment on any of this drama. I have also mixed feelings about whether to allow this forum conversation to continue, partly due to the fact this is heated drama which most...

Slip of the tongue there? Perhaps you've been banned from purchasing Teensys because you're reselling them?

wow, you really do not understand what we are, a reseller of teensy, authorized and all that. but now it's sparkfun's and this is their biz and this is how they do things. adafruit has purchased teensys for years from paul and robin, we are a...

You can't just sell a pi pico 2 under the name "freensy" and declare it to be Teensy compatible...

It is more or less, except you're charging more.

So you've come here on the Teensy forum to advertise your new products meant to compete with Teensy?

the good news is you will have choices, we do not, we can't sell the teensy because of a secret policty and paul is being bullied by sparkfun, so here we are, put in features you want or need, now is your chance, and it's all open-source ...

we will be also making accessories that will work with TC and will make the ecosystem bigger and better for everyone

check out the specs, it's no a pi pico 2 and rp2350 is not the only chip, did you see the new esp stuff, that too... i can post more about that if ya want, i gotta drop a kid off at school and i'll be back in a bit.

"what features do you want?" Teensyduino compatibility!

arduino compatible using the great phil hower core https://github.com/earlephilhower/arduino-pico
