Deadline approaching

I was startled today by the message that the deadline of this RoadTest+ will be in 3 days.

So I really have to hurry up to finish my application.

Earlier this week I received the components I ordered from Farnell, including some optocoupler which I need to for connecting the camera trigger and flash output in a electric isolated way (this is very common in machine vision).

My plan is to put the MSP430 Launchpad and the TI Led driver on an eurocard sized PCB, together with the opto isolators and terminal blocks for connecting the external signals.

 

Here is a photo of the layout:

tomorrow I will continue to work on this,

stay tuned.

    thanks DAB,

     

    unfortunately due to family matters I couldn't do much today.

    I'm starting to describe the progress in the next post just now.

     

    Gerrit.
