PCBs

24-12,5 Buck (Ethan, Michael)

• Awaiting Digikey Order for final Zener Diode

• Will assemble QTY(20) (Half and Half per variant) before competition

  for use in Telem Tower: 2023-03-25 - Ground Station Vrx Power

  4 buck converters completely assembled for telemetry

• See Asana for timeline

12-5 Buck (Nolan)

• Nolan Haines Not present at meeting, to add updates and timeline async

4S 30A Motor Controller (Muhammad)

• Worked through most of the review items (all that's left is just laying some GND vias left)

  • Will plan to have another version ready for review tomorrow or Wednesday

• Took some time to read up on tantalum caps vs ceramic/aluminum, will begin writing something up tomorrow

• Design completed, awaitting order, see Asana for timeline

5-24V Boost (Steven)

Has a board size drawn out, working on getting the rules & vias into it this week

Feedback to be given asynchronously

• Daniel Puratich Added into Asana

Plan is to order JLCPCB Order all at the same time

12S Servo Module (Stanley, Michael, Rayyan)

• Added most buck components to Altium, still a couple left, had to change some components due to some already being in the library / some out of stock

  • Stanley Hao To assign Tom Chiu to some component creation in Altium

Bootcamper Progress Updates

• Robson - Finished last task; final review this week if possible

  • Get this done!!! :d

  • Hoping to get it reviewed soon!

• Tom: Watching the buck converter videos and final questions left.

  • I made way too big of a doc for all the questions, and it’s been so long since the beginning that I’ll likely have to study before I’m tested on it. I also did it on my note-taking app, not sure if it’s as convenient to send to someone. Can I reach out at any point to request a review or to be tested?

    • Michael Botros to discuss in bootcamp thread

• Mena: Meeting setup with Michael to review! Michael: Fixed some small schematic things for overcurrent protection and I/O pages

• Stanley: Almost finished buck schematic, footprint for mosfet and diode required

4S Motor Controller

• Kevin: Will provide a PCB layout review tonight

Bootcamper Progress Updates

• Kevin Li:

  • Reviewed Michael and Farris' sections

  • Should I reach out to you both for changes I think would be appropriate to make? Or should I just do them without asking

• Robson - Did not come in person due to sickness; done bootcamp just need to schedule meeting w/ Michael

• Tom - Finished bootcamp, doing review after ee meeting with Michael
