Hardware

Introduction

The HW needed to drive the OPU can be broken into 3 sections:

1. Motors

2. PMIC

3. Laser Diode

Preliminary PCB

OPU_Driver_rev0p1 PCB CAD capture has been completed and is up for review on github here:

The board has been roughly quoted on JLCPCB:

• PCB= ~$35.00 / Ea

• Components = ~ $110.00 / Ea

3x Assembled PCBs = $550

At this time no orders are planned until firmware is far enough along to confirm pin out and FPGA logic size.
