pcb order
Today we have ordered the first batch of printed circuit boards (PCB) - let’s call these “Version 1”. The PCB has been completely redesigned from the prototypes that were developed at the beginning of the project.
The changes include:
- a new microprocessor,
- a new way to power on,
- different communication protocol from the micro to the XBee,
- proper footprints for the SRRs,
- proper socket for the USB connector,
- native USB output from the micro,
- different PCB shape for better fastening in the enclosure,
- removal of buzzer,
- some test pads for future enhancements,
- holes to allow a more secure mechanism to hold the XBee in place, and
- better layout!
These should take a few weeks to arrive…🤞
