About the Power Distribution PCB
Power Distribution is an open source PCB design by ryos17, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 151.4 × 80 mm, with 82 components from 24 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the ACS713ELCTR-30A-T, MCP9808_MSOP and AMS1117-3.3. By type, the board carries 22 resistors, 17 connectors, 10 ICs, 6 capacitors, 1 transistor and 1 test point.
From the project
Stanford Robosub Electrical Repository
The third hardware generation, currently being designed. The proposed system architecture is shown below; the boards under PCBs/ are the work toward it. The current working vehicle is still gen2/.
- MicroBreakout/ — the main breakout board for gen 3, the successor to the gen 2 MLU breakout. References the shared parts library in ../../importedparts. - BatteryBoards/ — the gen 3 power-management / battery boards, the follow-on to the gen 2 PowerManagement boards (which had heat problems). Two design variants: - PowerManagementV3diode/ — the diode-based design; this is the lead design. -…
