/technologies/sensor-technology/b/blog/posts/sensor-board-layout-for-our-rocketThis TimeIn this blog post I plan to go over the board layout for the components chosen in the previous blog entry and explain the reason for the layout and placements that I have chosen. I was hoping to give an outline for the software but due to then-USTelligent Community 12https://community.element14.com/technologies/sensor-technology/b/blog/posts/sensor-board-layout-for-our-rocketThu, 22 May 2014 22:03:18 GMT93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:d6f054e2-005a-47ea-9258-41f22f38b4b5Former Member1<p>Seems like a very challenging project. The layout of a complex PCB is a challenge in and of itself. Like you mentioned it is a good idea to make small groups for each &#39;block&#39; in your system. There are various optimal structures for laying out opamp amplifiers and filters, but you will need to play around a bit with less common parts like the sensors. I wouldn&#39;t count too much on getting a fully working board for your first try, but of course you can always hope <span>[View:/resized-image/__size/16x16/__key/commentfiles/f7d226abd59f475c9d224a79e3f0ec07-d6f054e2-005a-47ea-9258-41f22f38b4b5/contentimage_5F00_1.png:16:16]</span> If you have some space left over, you can think ahead a little bit and leave some extra space for adding capacitors or other parts. It might also be a good idea to make an oversized proof of concept board before you move on to a smaller board. Are you etching the board in house?</p><img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=17181&AppID=17&AppType=Weblog&ContentType=0" width="1" height="1">
