I was stuck debugging a chip for a day until I finally decided to write to the FAE. I sit down, write my problem in the simplest possible language, list all the tricks I tried and asked for a solution. Then I'm reading my email to make sure everything is in order and voila - one last thing to try. and that step worked.

What does FAE mean in this context?

Or do you mean ‘fae’ as in fairies?

Edit: speeling
