• Who

  • Daniel Puratich architecture, component selection, pm

  • Shawn Yang schem n layout I think but hasn't started yet

• What

  • interface between pixhawk gpio Pixhawk GPIO ports and 12v rail to pump, float, and release solenoid

  • extremely simple

    • Proof of Concept

  • Probably a dual channel HSD for 12V?

    • I put other options in the schem

• What will not be included initially, m a y b e in a future rev

  no buck to keep it simple,

  ,

  • why am i mentioning things that won’t be features?

    • need to keep it simple and safe to get a functional first rev out fast

    • maybe this and other things could be implemented in the future long term in a future project but we just aren’t here yet as a team

  • no buck

    • external buck for 48V to 12V required for the first rev, one will be selected and linked below, plenty of options exist for this

  • no CAN circuit →

    • firmware is struggling with https://uwarg-docs.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/ARCHS22/pages/2555904119/CAN+Integration+2025?search_id=99d9c02e-7941-4ee2-82d0-2c122bfa0b60&additional_analytics=queryHash---7f978b8f92e6fafe064d9236a790a0a47e8e5cec2916cdb791a52078bd173393
