Page Comparison

Kevin Li

• Completed V1 placement for PDB

• Tweak placement and get it reviewed

• Complete layout

Daniel Puratich (Unlicensed)

• Enjoyed Testing Point meeting on Sunday

• Add a significant quantity of testing points to flight controller to accommodate new space allocated by mechanical

Kiran Surendran

• Completed V2 placement for FC

• Finalize placement

• Complete routing

• Finalize entire board

• Order board

Jason Skells

• Continued progress on the motor controller schematic (currently under review)

• Fix any issues that come about from the schematic design review

• Figure out what size of footprints to use for the RC snubber (we want to use oversized footprints since we have to find the RC values experimentally)

• Start documenting the schematic (will ask Darwin for advice, resources, examples)

• Research RPP (reverse pulse plating) - not too sure what the purpose is

• Start work on the PCB layout (will also have to add test points to the schematic)

Muhammad Tanveer

• Finalized BMS IC and MCU selection

• Updated schematic libraries (added said IC and MCU)

• Update PCB libraries (for said IC and MCU)

• Start BMS schematic

• Source previously used components

Darwin Clark

• (Very little, credit to Kevin for all below)

• Ordered SMD components for the board

• Switched the SMD MCP3004 to THT, due to stock issues

• Finalized all output files

• Order from JLCPCB? (Over Winter?)

• Assemble (Early Winter 2022 term)

Seungmin Hong

• Continues gimbal confluence page (edits not published)

• Start looking at potential future projects

Ethan Abraham

• Went through LDOs

• Went through MOSFETs

• Went through Buck Converter documentation on confluence

• Analyze 4s-5V Buck Converter from Aug 2

• Further review PCB layout and routing of buck converters

Jatin Mehta

• Went through BLDC part of the confluence to better understand motor controllers from a more high level perspective.

• Also, watched videos to understand adjacent topics like MOSFETs.

• Learn more about the specifics (formulas, etc) and specific theories.

• Start understanding the drone (the design, etc) by going through the rest of the confluence and codebase, go through CONOPS documentation in more detail
