The problem with averaging a bunch of the same type of chip is that you cannot average out the systematic errors of that chip. If you want to do it "right", you should average all sorts of different (but obviously: good) chips, possibly assigning them different weight depending on their qualities. -- Poul-Henning Kamp | UNIX since Zilog Zeus 3.20 [email protected] | TCP/IP since RFC 956 FreeBSD committer | BSD since 4.3-tahoe Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence. _______________________________________________ volt-nuts mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/volt-nuts and follow the instructions there.
