Circuit board team meeting minutes for 02/22/2012¶

Power test board¶

• Replaced FTDI chip
  • Able to get some output from AVR, but not sure it is what we programmed
  • Will need to reprogram board and see what happens
• Observed that !PB input on pushbutton controller does not always get pulled high when button is released
  • Suspect that the internal pull-up resistor is flaky
  • Attached an external pull-up resistor between !PB and VBATT
  • !PB now behaves correctly, but pushbutton controller is still stuck on

Scoutfly Eagle file update¶

• Began routing a reduced version of Scoutfly for Meeting of the Minds

To do¶

• Figure out how to split up tasks among people so that everyone has something to do
• Figure out what's going on with !PB
• Look over reduced Scoutfly board, see if circuit seems OK

Attendance¶
