This week I finish up my schematic for a new board. This new board is similar to the previous PCB board that I design, only that this board uses Spartan6 TQFP packaging. Most of the component will remain only some minor changes on the capacitor decoupling. To know the required/necessary Read more
This is my thirteen week in AESTE. Getting closer and closer to the end of my internship~ This week I continue with drawing Schematic. 😴 💤 💩 😈 👿 👹 👺 💀 👻 👽 🙌 👏 👋 👍 👊 ✊ ✌️ 👌 ✋ 💪 🙏 ☝️ 👆 👇 👈 👉 Nothing Read more
While entering the last stages of creating the PCB, there are still some changes to be made to the circuit. In addition to these modifications, this week the solder mask, solder paste, and silkscreen have been created. Also, finally I was able to come up with an estimate for the Read more
This week’s post is relatively short, as I spent most of the time doing the actual routing, so nothing much to talk about here! However, I will highlight some of the concepts and considerations that are important while routing. First let me say that all the board connections have been Read more
Good news everyone, the circuit is finished 😀 ! Well, not so fast! Now everything is connected, but there are some last minute modifications to the circuit that were introduced just now. I will work on those first thing next week, and hopefully, I will start with the PCB layout. Read more
Resuming from last week, I continued working on the PCB design for our product. Last week I talked about my experience with learning the basics of designing PCB layout. The first half of this week I studied Xilinx’s PCB design guide for the FPGA, while I focused on creating the Read more
