Integrate GPS breakout board and FTDI board #11

Closed markwomack closed 7 years ago

markwomack commented 7 years ago

The board will be connected to the Upboard via USB, which will also supply the power for the GPS/FTDI circuit. But the GPS and FTDI need to be integrated, translating the GPS serial output to the USB.

The FTDI board had it's pins flipped and installed in the interface board. Needs to be wired. FTDI model was https://www.amazon.com/HiLetgo-Ft232rl-Serial-Adapter-Arduino/dp/B00IJXZQ7C/ref=redir_mobile_desktop?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&ref_=ya_aw_od_pi

Circuit between FTDI and GPS boards completed. Need to test with integration to make sure it works as expected.
