Pre-worksesh Knowledge

We will be doing hands-on bringup of boards using stencils, solder paste, and toaster/reflow ovens. If you do not have experience with this, it is highly recommended to watch these videos to get an understanding of what we’ll be doing in this session!

Worksesh Goals

• bring up boards

  • dependent on which parts are available

  • Other boards that can be assembled

    • Michael’s Buck: 24V - 12V or 5V

    • Nolan’s Tracking Antennae PCB

  • can bring up ESC CAN Adapter or 6S Servo Module if can circuit components come in

• Provide a valuable learning experience for new members on board bring up + validation

• Get boards assembled (and validated if time permits??)

• Allow PMs (Andrew & Meghan) to get a good idea of how sessions are run + possible improvements for subsequent meetings (things that go well & things that can be changed)

• Assign boards/projects to sub-team members (ideally one board to be brought up per member)

  • Some boards that are still waiting to be assembled (not part of F24 Order):

    • Michael’s Buck (24V to 12V or 5V)

    • Nolan’s Tracking Antennae

• Build up the knowledge for this term’s sub-team members & PMs to be able to work effectively and diligently in work sessions without too much required supervision from leads (allow PMs to run these almost independently for future sessions)

Board bringup priority:

• anything with can

• ESC CAN adapter will likely be easier to assemble (1 sided, few components)

• comp critical

  • motor mount LED boards

    • should be done ASAP
