PCB design work #1

Open ottoragam opened 4 years ago

ottoragam commented 4 years ago

I'm creating this issue to keep track of the progress on the various circuit board designs needed for SimplePnP.

Remaining work:

Edit: removed home switch PCB.

What are the two designs currently in the electronics folder? (I messaged you via CrowdSupply about helping with a few things for the electronics)

ottoragam commented 4 years ago

Hi Anton, the designs are for a small form factor GRBL cntroller and three stepper drivers that will be mounted on the machine's head.

Maybe to get started create some directories for each board and add any documentation (existing off the shelf boards you are using, etc) or some simple text file of high level functions of what each board is supposed to do? (just a suggestion)

ottoragam commented 4 years ago

Good idea, I'll make the changes in a moment.

I forgot to list it, but the LED carrier board design for camera illumination is now up.

4b11b4 commented 4 years ago

Any ideas where initial contributions might occur?

ottoragam commented 4 years ago

Let me see how the designs work. I'm waitong for the PCBs to be shipped from China.

4b11b4 commented 4 years ago

How'd these designs turn out?

ottoragam commented 4 years ago

Hey, I've not been able yet to start working ith the PCBs. I'll post here again when I get things moving.

Do you have any plans to add a solder dispenser?

4b11b4 commented 3 years ago

I am still interested in helping out with a small piece of the electronics --- I have a purely software job as of recently and I miss working with hardware already!

I haven't tested something like that in the machines yet. I plan to start working on the add-ons once I get my crowdfunding machines shipped.

Apologies, I'm not yet at the PCB assembly stage, but I estimate that it shouldn't take me more than a month to start working on those.

ariefadha commented 3 years ago

is there any pcb design release yet? because i just see 3 stepper connector on this git meanwhile PnP need at least 4

ottoragam commented 3 years ago

@ariefadha Im using two stepper driver boards for controlling up to six motors. I'm just separating the table control from the head control in order to reduce the number of conductors needed for the head (just power and serial data)
