Introduction
The user and stakeholders from now on user is the one who want a PCB that has the following functionalities :
Is placed inside a non waterproof housing with dimensions 30 x 40 x 10. The device controls valves and read water sensors to check watering in a plant.
Scope
The PCB is a connector hub instead of cabling for a PSU, UNI 1.1 and external connectors to the user.
There will be no active components in the PCB. Except connectos and traces.
Interfaces:
3.O Unipi
The Unipi 1.1 is matched 1 to 1 with the PCB. The Unipi 1.1 board sits above the PCB and is fixed with holders.
Across each side of Unipi 1.1 there will be the correspoining 5.08 spacing connectors. There will be connected wires 1 to 1 between Unipi and the new under design PCB.
3.1 Power Hub
There shall be a ATX 24P connector in the board wich will provide power soursces 12V , 5V, 3,3V and common GND.
Durring assemnbli one of these 0 ohm will be mounted for different HW version.
Outside interace to user: for each pin of unipi will be on connector with 2Poles for Digita Output and Analog Output and 4P for digital input, Analog input and for below intefaces
3.0 Serial and I2C interfaces
Serial and I2c iterface are provided by Unipi via JST connectors. Each of these will be connectes with short cable with the PCB with JST connector in both sides.
I2C interface will be mapped to 6 Outer connectors with 4 Poles
Serial interface will be mapped to 1 Outer connectors with 4 Poles.
3.1 Type
All the user connectors will be industrial 3.81 spacing straigt
All the internal connectors will be industrial 5.08 spacing straigt
3.2 Placement
Internal connectos will be on top laywer of under desing PCB
Outer connectors will be on botom layer of under design PCB
4.0. NOTE TO BE DISCUSSED:
The PCB shall forward the power bus of 5V 12V and 3.3V powers to each of the outputs of the Unipi 1.1 with 0 Ohm resistors so they can be configurable what voltage supply to the user.
