Source File Repository:

All source files are located in this repository: schematics, board layout, netlist, arduino source code, etc.

https://github.com/dwiel/ose-cebpress-controller-board

Goals:

  • Add Left/Right/Up/Down buttons on board
  • Add Left/Right/Up/Down terminal positions for external control
  • Add Left/Right/Up/Down to source code
  • Build schematic and board layout in with KiCAD

Design Rational:

  • Buttons and terminals must all be easy to access
  • Circuit board must be easy to etch by hand
  • Populating and soldering parts of the circuit board should be easy
    • Using more through hole components this time for this reason
  • Circuit board should be small so that they are cheaper and faster to etch/mill
