|
|
|
|
https://github.com/xunker/bluescsi_pb/v1.1
|
|
|
|
## April 2021
|
|
|
|
This design is the current design. It replaces [v1.0](../v1.0).
|
|
|
|
## Gerber files
|
|
|
|
Gerber files can be [found here in the gerber directory](gerber).

## Changes from v1.0
|
|
|
|
Changes in order of importance:
|
|
* Mounting hole locations adjusted so they match an actual drive
|
|
* Connect `RETURN` on 40-pin SCSI connector with signal ground
|
|
* STM32 +5 is connected to `TERMPWR` by default, via breakable jumper pad
|
|
* Separate jumpers provided for powering via `TERMPWR` or `MOTORPWR`
|
|
- *MOTORPWR* is a separate +5v provided to run the drive motor and actuator
|
|
- This change will be helpful for debugging power issues where *MOTORPWR* appears to be inconsistent
|
|
* Activity LED (`LED_BUILTIN`) broken-out if you want to have an external LED
|
|
* Increased `TERMPWR` trace width
|
|
* Traces and resistor packs are moved farther away from mounting holes to avoid potential shorts
|
|
* Back silkscreen marks location of the key pin (17) within the 40-pin connector
|
|
* Moved legends for J1, J2 and J8 so they are next to pin 1 on their respective connectors
|
|
* Corners rounded more
|
|
* Numerous changes to the routing of traces
|
|
* Shorten board by about 5mm
|
|
- This is the shortest practical length to maintain all four screw holes
|

## Comparison with 2.5in drive
|
|
|
|
A 2.5 inch SCSI drive is 100mm x 70mm. This version of bluescsi_pb is 72mm x 67mm, or 77mm x 67mm once the 40-pin connector is attached.
