| Allowed for the old RevB board sensors to receive 5 volts instead of just 3.3 volts. This was done by connecting the pads that were primarily used for the 3.3 voltage converter to a new header of the 5 volt converter. Also there is a problem with the previously designed GPS that was meant to be integrated into the board. The main culprit is that the Real Time Clock (RTC) does not play well with the GPS unit and as such will also need to be fully integrated along side it. There is an online schematic and board for the RTC which is just an easy integration to the pcb design.\\ | Allowed for the old RevB board sensors to receive 5 volts instead of just 3.3 volts.

| We are also playing around with searching up a new bootloader for our ATMEGA1284 that is 16 MHz. The problem is trying to find online resource for this particular problem. | We are also playing around with searching up a new bootloader for our ATMEGA1284 that is 16 MHz.

| + | Worked on deleting the old GTPA013 from the old schematic and getting the RTC into it. Not much can be done and its just up to testing which the firmware team will handle. Currently we also would need to prep an old board to not only run 5 volts and a new 16 MHz boot-loader but also learn how to route the new XBEE using XCTU. Aljaed is still unfamiliar with all these little details so he is just researching as we go along. | ||
