First batch of boards

First try with Eagle has arrived us. They are : ADXL330 module and Ref. Board

Ref. Board

We played different size of the most common stuff, including lines, vias, pads, text and shields… It’s also an interesting tryout of our PCB factory (igonored their compain….). Thy are doing good on even 5 mil lines, but seems the silkscreen machine refused the texts under 10 mil. We have made some 30 pcs, you may get it for free if you have plan to make a PCB, just ask. Here it goes.

A better version with more features for design reference will be on board later.

ADXL330 Accelerometer module

Affection for wiimote, We tried to source the same accelerometer it uses. But I even get a quote of about $138 from our local supplier for an Accelerometer module… No, never for me.

Being angry about their pricing, we managed to fabricate out PCBs and solder out the ADXL330, with 2.54mm pin header which it could insert into Arduino easily.

Check it out here~ ( I’ll fight with my Canon G5 to get a better close look…; ()
