Progress Report • Finalized Gantt Chart • Drafted Tx Schematic • Submitted for first review • Ordered Major Components • Drafted Bill of Materials • Website now Live
Schematic Design Theory • Must decouple all the power connections of the circuit to ensure that high frequency noise on the power line does not interfere with sensitive parts of the circuit. • Capacitors near every power and ground connection. • POT1 is used to change the magnitude of the output • POT2 is used to control the output power of the VCSEL • The three element filter (C3,L1,C4) in the top left provides additional protection from VCC noise by bandlimiting the signal • In series with each potentiometer is a 'limiting resistor' that should protect the circuit if the POT resistance too low
Ordered Major Components • VCSEL: AOC HFE419x-441 • ROSA: AOC HFD3180-108 • Expected Delivery: 2/22/05
Project Website • Functional and up-to-date content http://www.ee.duke.edu/~mbrooke/ECE135/2005_01_Spring/G1/
Upcoming Week • Finalize Tx Schematic • Draft and Finalize Rx Schematic • Initiate Board Design • Target - Submit for review 2/28/05 • Order Remaining Components
