Week 6_Electronics design

Aim of the week:
Redesign the echo hello-world board pcb (adding at least a button and LED).

Drawing

By using Eagle I draw the board. The first step was downloading and using SparkFun, Adafruit and the Fab libraries.
Firstly I added all the components and than I connetted them with the Wire and Junction commands.

From the original board I added one led, one button and a 10k trimmer.

After, I check the Electrical Rules and I moved to the Board Layout.

Milling & Soldering

Board milling was made with the Roland MDX-40a with the same process of the fourth week.

In the next image you can see all the components I've used.
The only 10k trimmer I found was not smd, so I've to solder it in a creative way! Here you can see what knob I choose to resolve that problem!

Here source files.

Flashing

After I soldered the components and checked every trail, I connected the board to the pc through the Gianfranco's FabISP.
"avrdude done.
Thank you."
