Cape Solder/ Build

[Debrant]

Was able to route the capes, but because of time constraints, I did not plate them. There are only 8 or 9 vias and 6 pads that need contact on the bottom plane. I applied a solder mask to the top layer and soldered the headers with a 1-2 mm stand off, so we can pull them off and solder the afore mentioned pads. The task list for the BBBCape is as follows;

• Solder the resistors, transistors and remaining DB9 onto the boards
• plug the vias
• pull the plastic off the headers and solder top pads, return plastic
• purchase or find 3.3v reg (i have 1 sm 1amp in pocket that i can mod if need be and an lm317 at home, but would prefer the boards to match.

I will be in Wednesday and Thursday to finish tasks and work on presentation.
