Status Report 03-23 (zbp)

My accomplishments this week:

    • Revision 1. jointly reflowed with Stan
    • Relevant PR’s reviewed and merged for SPI transmission, heatshrink interface
    • Got Cameron up-to-speed on testing his code on our toolchain (previously just running tests standalone)
    • Reworded Rev. 1, tested, electrically solid
    • Made a list of changes for Rev. 2 (will actually need to happen now, I definitely frigged some things up)
      • Change both ribbons to slide connectors
      • Shorten header to make sure it clears
      • Order shorter ribbon (can’t cut to length, I’m dumb)
      • Improve pitching on breakout pins (embiggen)
      • Remove/move poorly placed designators
      • Fix 0201 Caps in BOM
      • Add connector, headers to BOM
      • Expand transceiver board ground pour to mounting hole
      • Consider moving power delivery off ribbon
      • Move resistor
      • Add reset caps to gnd
      • Move connector back from the lip if possible
      • Renumber designators across boards

My personal deliverables for next week:

  • A revised Rev. 1 (Rev. 2)
  • Rev. 2 ordered by end-of-week
  • Investigation into board mount/spacers/enclosure

Updates on last week’s deliverables:

  • I’ve reviewed a decent chunk of the codebase, but I still need to get more intimately involved with Cameron’s interfaces and the UART driver
  • See above for board status
