r2-Dev-Backplane

This is a backplane PCB for Digitabulum. When combined with the PowerPlant, it has the same schematic as the r2-Backplane.

Intended usage

This board is intended as a testing harness for functional subunits designed for use with the Digitabulum sensor package. This would be the board you would want for prototyping new CPLD designs, power supplies, or compute modules.

If you do not want to do those things, but just want a working glove, you should use the r2-Backplane instead.

The CPLD GPIO pin has been routed to the 2v5/3v3 selection signal.

Features

  • ESD protection diodes for ingress-resistant USB port.
  • Supports full software management of battery.
  • Supports reduced-voltage operation and full power down of the sensor package for maximum battery longevity.
  • JTAG breakout for in-circuit programming of CPLD.

Questions

How big is the PowerPlant Module PCB?

It measures 22.5 × 37.7 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the PowerPlant Module use?

35 parts, built around the BQ24155RGY. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the PowerPlant Module KiCad files?

From the Manuvr/Digitabulum-Hardware repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PowerPlant-Module/PowerPlant-Module.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the PowerPlant Module design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Manuvr before reusing the design.
