7V Variant are fitted
solder on test input leads for buck testing
verify pin 1 on chips aligns with indicator
Power Testing
make sure no power rails are shorted to ground or each other with dmm
slowly increase voltage (with low current limit, 100mA max) on buck input, check its not drawing excessive current/power (ensure no output load)
probing output net for voltage stability with dmm then scope
scope switch node
then slowly increase voltage on internal 5v rail, verify the internal 3v3 rail turns on
one this works for all boards
load test on buck converter: use eload to fully load the buck and verify you get the output current expected
then handoff to firmware for testing
Firmware Testing
attempt to flash boards
all leds functional
pwm output functional
CAN circuit functional
pixhawk servo CAN system test
