+A quick update as of 24 November 2008. +The existing ARM7-based design has been shelved indefinitely. +Working with Keith Packard, I recently embarked on a complete redesign based on the TI cc1111. +We got there by deciding we need a low-power RF beacon for post-landing direction finding, learning +of the existence of this part, then realizing that we could radically simplify things by using it +as the basis for a completely new avionics design. +The cc1111 integrates a full 70cm transceiver, 8051 processing core, and peripherals on one chip. +We add to that a barometric sensor, temperature sensor, accelerometer, eeprom memory, and full LiPo +battery support powered by a USB interface also used for configuration and post-flight data extraction. +It looks like we can get all the features we want on a single board for less than the price of most +commercial altimeter boards, with the only downside being dramatically reduced processing power. +The schematic is under design review now, PCB layout will begin soon, and we hope +to be turning on boards and writing firmware over the Christmas / New Years holiday season. +Stay tuned! +

+
+

+Welcome LCA, SCALE, and OLS 2008 attendees! +Thanks for looking, but there's not much here yet... +

+ +

+Information on the OpenAlt model rocketry avionics system coming very soon! +

+ +

+Here are photos of the version 0.1 PCB, which has enough issues to not be +worth duplicating. Version 0.2 is coming soon, and will be fully documented +on this site! +
