By far the easiest contest yet.

Hey Jesse,
I thought I would do one that was a bit easier since the last few were kinda hard.

I agree; this one is quite easy. I guess it makes up for the time spent searching for last
weeks picture, and the toroidal chessboard…

It’s not easy for me. I have no idea other than it’s some kind of
A to D for audio or motor control. I’m curious though. If the chip
numbers weren’t obscured I could probably tell you.
