PCB design for various electronics projects
This is a collection of various electronics projects, generally supposed to be used in glider cockpit. Each directory here is a separate hardware design. See README in each of the subdirectories for more info.
FLARM splitter allows to connect both vario and FLARM viewer to the FLARM device via the standard RJ45 socket, providing RS232 data.
FLARM to USB adapter allows to connect flarm device to the computer for firmware update. It also creates a virtual COM device in the computer OS allowing data communication with the FLARM device.
