Removed all the old things specific to the Sink and its programming jig.
Removed (I think) all references to the PD Buddy Sink, replacing them
with PD Buddy Dev. Reorganized repository for just one KiCad project.
Assuming I'm going to keep ordering boards from MacroFab, it makes sense
to use their house parts as much as possible. Therefore, the next
boards will use a C&K PTS810 as the Setup switch instead of an Alps
SKQG. In addition to saving money, this change allows room for larger
"Setup" and "GND" labels.
With the VBUS symbol merged into the KiCad library, I no longer need to
use my own. This commit changes the schematic to use the standard VBUS
symbol rather than a custom one.
This is a major change! Almost all the components have changed to
smaller versions, with 0603 and 0402 passives and a QFN microcontroller.
The board now has four layers, with internal layers used for VBUS and
GND. The board now measures a mere 25×30 mm! The SWD header and Boot
switch footprints have been moved to the bottom to help with this
shrinkage. Two test points were added to the bottom as well to make it
possible to power the board without using the USB connector. The
mounting holes are now slightly smaller (better sized for M3), and only
17 mm apart instead of the old 18 mm.
To sum up, everything is smaller and that's almost entirely a good
thing, except now it's not really possible to build one by hand.
It's a USB Type-C connector just like the one used in v0.1 and v0.2, but
with only SMT pins (except the fixing pins, of course). They're
slightly cheaper and probably nicer for automated assembly, but
impossible to hand-solder. That's okay though: where we're going, we
don't need hand-solderability.
I had the source and drain reversed—whoops. After fixing it with an
X-Acto knife and some point-to-point wiring, I've updated the schematic
and PCB files accordingly.
THIS ALSO MARKS THE BEGINNING OF DEVELOPMENT OF THE NEXT BOARD REVISION.
