This week, I gave our presentation and nailed down the details of our hardware implementation. I found the handout for 220’s Lab 4 (the RFID lab), and went off that. I made sure I still had all the components to execute the lab, and then researched ways to make it less of a lab and more of a finished project – for example, using a thinner mag wire that will allow our inductor coil to be a lot smaller (and easier to wind).<\/p>\n
I’m a bit behind schedule, as I would have liked to order parts this weekend. I forgot that presentations would last two days, so I lost that in-class time. Still, I hope to come in Monday with a pretty definitive list to go over with Tamal before putting in the order.<\/p>\n
Deliverables for next week include ordering all the necessary hardware parts. While I wait for them to come in, I’ll begin to go through Lab 4 again on my breadboard – this will make sure the design is fresh in my mind, and provide a good guideline for when I begin soddering.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
