The Gibbot Board v3 will attempt to fix the issues in the v2 board and add additional functionality. The board will be created with separate modular components so that if a design fails the rest of the board can still be used.

  • Use the layout from the HIP4086 3-phase BLDC Motor Drive Demonstration Board for the MOSFET H-bridge circuit.
  • Use only one current sensor to measure the overall current consumption instead of a sensor to measure the current on each of the three legs of the BLDC motor circuit.
  • Use the dsPIC33EP512MC806 for more pins and functionality.
  • Include a 0.1uF decoupling capacitor between each of the 3.3V and GND pins on the dsPIC as well as a 10uF ceramic through hole decoupling capacitor on at least one pair of pins.
  • A MPU9150 9-Axis IMU.
  • Order 0.033 uF boot strap capacitors instead of stacking two 0.01 uF capacitors.
  • 1A boostrap diodes SL04 40V Reverse Voltage, 10ns reverse recovery time
  • 1A clamping diodes ES1B, 100V reverse voltage, 25ns reverse recovery time
  • Encoder input for magnet encoder JST SH 5 pin
  • Connect the XBee to the dsPIC with CTS and RTS hardware flow control pins.
  • Include logicl level MOSFETs for driving both magnets SSM3K329R,LF.
  • Include holes for 4-40 stand off screws.
  • Status LEDS
  • On/Off Switch
  • 6 IR LED outputs
  • User Button
  • Reset Button
  • Plug in connectors instead of Screw Terminals
  • Include a modular 48V to 24V, 24V to 12V and 12V to 5V buck converter circuit board with redundant inputs in case the buck converter board does not work.
  • Include a separate modular board for the second arm of the robot. This board will have only 4 inputs to minimize the number of wires through the link, these are: 24V, GND, SDA and SCLK (or possibly RX and TX). This board will have:

Maximum Height = 0.8 inches

Changes

  • GND connection on plug from Power Board to Secondary Board is unconnected
  • IR LED plugs on main board are backwards
  • Holes for MiniFit Jr plugs are too big
  • Power and Ground Planes should be labeled
  • Test points should be labeled
  • Multiple test points are isolated from the planes they should test
  • Caps on 48V to 24V converter are backwards
  • R1 of resistor divider network for 48V to 24V converter should be 21.7V instead of 9.79V
  • Inductor values need to be changed:
    • For 24V circuit a 56uH inductor preforms much better
    • For 12V circuit the datasheet recommends 15uH
    • For 5V circuit the datasheet recommends 6.8uH
    • For 3.3V circuit the datasheet recommends 4.7uH
