Dragonfruit Team Meeting - October 10, 2016
Attended: Keane, Kevin, Tyler
Updates
- Housing completed and printed
- MCU programmed
- waiting on: final code additions and XBee packet testing
- Reviewing board more closely
- areas for improvement
- additional parts
- debugging current problems
- Developing new ideas for next version of board
Problems
- Screeching still a problem
- Ghost voltage has disappeared for some reason
- Screeching still there
Goals for this week
- Print rest of housing
- Meet with Firmware and get board programmed
- Work on solving screeching problem
- Measure the voltage reading of the voltage regulator without XBEE connected. If reading is 3.3V then, the phantom voltage comes from the XBEE which is caused by MCU connection. If the reading is 4.0V then the excess voltage comes from the voltage regulator, and we can potentially solve the problem by connecting a voltage divider to the voltage regualator.
Reminders
- Finish PDR presentation by Thursday and sent to Kaeo
- Print and assemble Housing for deployment date (Oct 7th or Oct 10th)
