2 years ago Hello, I am a student who wants to work on a project based on ICS testbed, such as the licster project. I asked a question by e-mail, but I have an additional question, so I leave it in the issue.
As you informed me via email, I have identified the files that need to be uploaded.
- It seems that it is not possible to upload PCB and SMT at the same time. Through the JLPCB site, I am trying to order by uploading fabrication as gerber file to PCB tab and gerber file of JLCPCB to SMT-stencil tab. do.
1) Is it possible to order fabrication with gerber files on the PCB tab and JLCPCB with gerber files on the SMT-stencil tab?
[PCB tab]
[SMT-stencil tab]
2) Can I order by uploading it as a (fabrication + SMT-stencil) zip file to the PCB tab or SMT-stencil tab?
I compressed the files in the fabrication folder(https://github.com/hsainnos/LICSTER/tree/master/devices/remote_io/hardware/Fabrication) and the files in JLCPCB folder(https://github.com/hsainnos/LICSTER/tree/master/devices/remote_io/hardware/JLCPCB) together into a zip file (please refer to the image) If not, I am wondering which method to use.
-
In addition, please answer whether it is okay to order only PCB, or if SMT order is absolutely necessary with the csv file in the JLCPCB folder when ordering PCB.

It seems to be something to set the hole depth of the PCB board, and is it okay just order the gerber file as it is? I wonder if additional settings are unnecessary.

I am trying to build a remoteIO testbed for measuring computer load. So, instead of building all the elements of LICSTER, we try to purchase mainly essential parts. Therefore, I plan to purchase only the Raspberry Pi since I am trying to implement only the functions without purchasing other accessories. I wonder if there are any non-essential parts in the case of remote IO. The List of PCB Components, the parts list you wrote down, seems to be mostly composed of resistors. I wonder if it is possible to fulfill that role by purchasing only a PCB board. (https://github.com/hsainnos/LICSTER/tree/master/devices/remote_io#component-ordering)
We ask a lot of questions because we need a thorough review of your purchase history. Thanks for your help. :)

For this use only need to upload this in the PCB tab and do not need to do anything at the SMT-Stencil tab.

Answer
Hello and welcome to the LICSTER project,
for your first question 1: You need to zip the folder https://github.com/hsainnos/LICSTER/tree/master/devices/remote_io/hardware/Fabrication "In the folder Fabrication you find all the files needed to order the PCB. In the case of JLCPCB, you need only zip them together and upload them to upload."
for question 2: The SMD parts could be solders by JLPCB, the two necessary files are in https://github.com/hsainnos/LICSTER/tree/master/devices/remote_io/hardware/JLCPCB , but you still need to solder the THT parts by yourself.
I hope this answers your question. For the future it would be better to open a Github issue, as there were already questions on this topic and others could find the answers too.
Feel free to ask further questions, I will help you to get the LICSTER up and running.
Regards
Matthias
===================================================================================== Question
Hello
We are Jung-hyun Moon, Junghwa Ryu, attending graduate school in South Korea.
I saw your thesis and the 'Low-cost ICS Testbed' github and was trying to do research using the data, so I have a question, so I sent you an email.
I was wondering how you placed your remote IO order while you were buying a device to do research.
You wrote on github that you placed an order by uploading a zip file from the https://jlcpcb.com site, but in the case of the zip file, I am curious what path you uploaded the file to.
LICSTER/devices/remote_io/hardware/Fabrication/
LICSTER/devices/remote_io/hardware/
It seems to be one of the two, but did you combine the files in the Fabrication folder and other folders in the hardware into a zip file?
Also, I wonder if all the files in the hardware folder or the Fabrication folder are needed.
When using the SMT service on the https://jlcpcb.com site, it was confirmed through consultation that soldering is also provided. In addition, I was informed that Gerber File, BOM and CPL files are required together when ordering to use the service. However, I understood that you ordered a PCB on github. I wonder if you did the soldering yourself, or if the soldering service was provided with the PCB order. If there is no method you used in my question, I would like to ask how you ordered it.
Thank you for sharing good material for research.
have a good day :)
