This week we delivered our proposal presentation and finalized the interfaces between systems, specifically between modules and the microcontroller module. This helped Adam with the schematic for the PCB. Also, we selected components and finalized a budget, which is crucial so that we can order our STM32 discovery board and get working on software and firmware development.
We need to review the schematic, both individually for errors, and also with Tom and Ryan to get some expert opinions. It is imperative to get Rev1 finished asap so that we can test it and make changes as needed for the final PCB.
We did not change any requirements, since we fleshed those out before the proposal presentation. However, we made final choices for a lot of components, which helps to firm up our direction.
This has been a huge week for tuning our system specification and documentation. We’re looking forward to the schematic review and to play with the discovery board!
