Quick Update

While I wait to build Version 13, I will continue to revise the layout.  Here is the latest.


Some Thoughts:

  • Con: All the jumpers are required
  • Pro: Would be confusing to say some were "optional"
  • Only 7 or 8 really optional parts.  So why bother documenting them as optional?
    • ICSP Header (2x3 pin header)
    • Barrel Plug
    • Schottky Diode
    • 7805 Voltage Regulator
    • 10uF Capacitor
    • 220ohm resistor
    • 3mm LED
  • It's not that much different than version 11
  • I'd like the caps on the other side of the VR
  • There is no longer enough room for a big USB plug
  • I should mount one board with a small breadboard
  • I'm tired.
