PCB Iterations


V0.1 (Breadboard)

Pre-PCB design that often was multiple parts of the system that would eventually become one.

Pros
  • Easy to add/change components for testing
Cons
  • Unreliable connections
Components
V0.1 (Breadboard)

 

V1

Version one was created by Brandon Marcellus & Juan Silva early on in the start of the project after we had started some of the basic wiring of control and data collection.

Pros
  • Organization greatly improved
  • Power distribution
Cons
  • Logic level shifter was not wired correctly
  • Not enough IO ports were available for use
  • SD Card module VCC pin was connected to 3.3V instead of 5V
