PoE #60

Open nbxmike opened 5 years ago

nbxmike commented 5 years ago

Fixes:

Delete PoE comment from uHat
Add PoE comment to Hat Suggestions:
Move the keep out area on the uHat specification to actually cover the RUN/TV connectors
Add the RUN connector location to the Hat specification Curious:
Why does the PoE location on the Hat specification not match the PoE location on the RPi (or PoE Hat for that matter)?

lurch commented 4 years ago

The RUN connector is in different places on different models of Raspberry Pi, whereas the HAT and uHAT specs are universal across all models of Raspberry Pi. (AFAIK it's perfectly valid to use a HAT with a Pi Zero, or use a uHAT with a Pi 4B)

If it is worthwhile to recommend "BOARD MUST MAKE SURE PoE HEADER DOES NOT FOUL" on the uHat spec then it is worthwhile to say the same on the Hat specification.
It would be nice to stop moving the RUN connector and specify it, someday.
It would seem logical that the POE location in the Hat specification at least match one real design.

@jimbojr @Roger-Thornton Any comment?

If it is worthwhile to recommend "BOARD MUST MAKE SURE PoE HEADER DOES NOT FOUL" on the uHat spec then it is worthwhile to say the same on the Hat specification.

It does mention that at https://github.com/raspberrypi/hats/blob/master/README.md#hat-requirements (although not directly on the HAT PDF).
