The design of CSP1 uses a bunch of chips I have not used before so I decided to make test boards for them before going with a final design of CSP1. In the last two months I have done 7 test boards that cover all these parts. I now know how to use these parts, how to actually make them work. Several of them had issues at first because the spec sheets were unclear how to actually make them work. It's one of those things that now that I know what they do I can see that the spec sheets actually do say that, but it was very unclear or downright misleading with the original reading. The swamp boards have had some problems so I hadn't sent one to Clive to start on the custom driver work. With these test chips out of the way I finally had some time to do some debugging. I now have them working well. It turned out that massive surface mount connector is almost impossible to solder by hand. Originally I didn't think it was going to be that bad. It took a long time to get those two connectors fully soldered. I am VERY glad that the real thing is going to be assembled by a professions assembly house, I'll let THEM try and figure out how to solder this thing! Anyway I just shipped one off to Clive so hopefully we can start getting some work done on the custom drivers.
