Changes to RC1 boards before sending for production

Post by evilroot »

I'm working on editing the boards with Eagle, putting in the changes to the RC1 design mentioned in the build sections. I've reversed the traces to the two center pins from the header on the LM3622 board, rather than try to edit the main board (or rework it with wire jumpers as shown in the pictures).

I'm wondering about the capacitors for the PLL, do they go parallel with all four resistors (R40-R43), or just the two on the bottom of the board? The pictures are too low-resolution for me to really see for sure. I'd like to just add traces for them on the board to make things simpler.

Anything else I've missed? I do rework on SMT boards fairly often, but this is the first time I've fabricated one from scratch (the first time I've seen a project I wanted to build badly enough, heh!), so I'm not very familiar with Eagle/etc.
