Attended: Andy, Zach, Conrad, Jon, Alex, Christie

• Cranberry didn't go up before spring break
• Still aiming for 5 boxes at the end of the semester
  • Need everyone's help to reach this goal

• Tested charging, programming, sensors, switches, UART, XBee, I2C
  • UART works
  • Switches work
  • I2C slightly works
    • width of trace may not be wide enough for current
    • trace could also be too long
    • currently using 10 kOhm but could change to 4.7 kOhm
    • could have put capacitor on wrong
  • 16 bit ADC works
  • Solar sensor has problems
    • Op amp inputs are reversed
    • Jon can cut the trace and rewire
  • Charging chip not working
    • Chip could just be bad
    • Board is receiving power but not charging
    • Chip is overheating
      • Could cause problems in the future
      • Need to find a way to dissipate heat better

• Continue testing boards

• Will be soldering more charging chip boards for testing
• Will cut trace for op amp and rewire board
• Should notify Jon of any changes made to the board

• Would like to send out PCB for tree monitor tomorrow
  • need to ask Kenny for payments on PCB
