RGB-LED-Module-for-Olfactory-Assay-Arena

The RGB LED Module "Model 608 revC V1.0" is specifically designed for use with the "Olfactory Assay Arena" Revision C and enables precise optogenetic control in behavioral experiments. The board supports independent control of red, green, and blue high-power LEDs across four separate channels, as well as an independently controlled IR LED. It interfaces with an Arduino Mega 2560 via serial communication, using PWM and TTL signals for intensity and status regulation. Safety features and operational constraints ensure reliable use in a laboratory setting. A comprehensive command structure allows for highly flexible integration into custom research setups. This system is not approved for human use and is intended strictly for experimental laboratory environments.

Reference

The RGB-LED module "Model 608 revC V1.0" was designed as a drop-in replacement for the original single-color LED module used in the “Olfactory Assay Arena – Revision C” developed by HHMI’s Janelia Research Campus.

Our contribution is limited to adapting the original PCB layout to support three-color RGB LEDs. All mechanical components and the intended use case remain unchanged and originate entirely from the original design provided by the Janelia Research Campus.

This repository is intended solely for research and prototyping purposes. All rights to the original design and its application belong to HHMI’s Janelia Research Campus.

Questions

How big is the 608-olfactory assay arena vC V1.2 PCB?

It measures 233.6 × 177.8 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the 608-olfactory assay arena vC V1.2 use?

765 parts, built around the LM2596S-5.0, LM26CIM5-RPA, 74LVC1GU04DRL and VSMY1850X01. 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 608-olfactory assay arena vC V1.2 KiCad files?

From the iBehave-eLab/RGB-LED-Module-for-Olfactory-Assay-Arena repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is Board/608-olfactory-assay-arena_vC_V1.2.kicad_pcb and its schematic Board/608-olfactory-assay-arena_vC_V1.2.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the 608-olfactory assay arena vC V1.2 design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
