Daily snippet


  • Changed daughterboard pinouts in schematics support PMOD I2C interface.
  • Looked at the possibility of using bidirectional isolators in data isolation stage, but it was ruled out as they were found to be expensive.
  • Re-justified use of data isolation stage in serial expansion motherboard.
  • Created new kicad modules (footprints)
  • Completed footprint association of components on motherboard schematics using CvPcb
  • Verified footprints for components and checked 0603 footprint to be imperial type instead of metric type. Checked datasheets of all components to make sure correct footprint is assigned to them.
  • Made sure only low current (2mA) LEDs are used.
  • Fixed hole dia and added shield pins in VHDCI module
  • Just started with PcbNew, will be creating new module for the daughterboard slot and start laying them out nicely.
