So, it was back to the drawing board (literally) for a ‘version 2’ PCB. The pad pattern for the two-wire terminal blocks wasn’t correct (too small), and at least one of them was reversed – oops! In addition, a couple of PCB traces weren’t correct.

First iteration of PCB is slightly largerĪfter inspecting the PCBs, I realized I had screwed up on a couple of items. Size comparison between PCB and hand-wired versions. So, after some more fumbling around, I came up with the following model for the PB1K What I needed was a PCB, so I (or anyone else) could fabricate any number of charging modules without the PITA factor of a hand-wired perf-board implementation, so I decided to see If I could make a PCB using the free version of DipTrace.Īfter fumbling around for a while in DipTrace, I soon realized that in order to do a good job with a PCB design, I needed a component and associated PCB pattern for the Adafruit PowerBoost 1000C, and AFACT, none existed – at least not in a form compatible with DipTrace.

This system has worked extremely well, but now I wanted to duplicate it for a planned upgrade to a larger robot platform, and I really wasn’t looking forward to hand-wiring another board. This system worked very well, and with the modifications discussed in this post from last January (January 2017), I had a complete system for autonomous on-board charging.

UPDATE: 30 December 2015 – Jaap has made a really cool DigiRule Java Simulator which you can check out in the link below.

The Digirule 1 and 1A essentially do exactly the same thing however the Digirule 1A features improved buttons and improved firmware which has the old Swordfish Basic code ported over to C (by Brent Hauser) – Huge thanks Brent! You can download all files including PCB layout, source code and BOM in the link at the bottom of this page. The Digirule 1 and 1A are completely open source. You can purchase a Digirule 1A from my Tindie store (when they are in stock): The Digirule 1 and Digirule 1A are interactive binary PCB rulers that feature seven logic gates, four flip flops and a 4-bit binary counter. You will find them at the bottom of this page (the kit instructions are included in the main download with all other files including schematic, PCB design, source code etc.)

Update 15 January 2020 – The Digirule 1A kit soldering video and PDF are available for download.
