At long last, Boards arrive from fab
08/30/2015 at 13:51 • 0 commentsYeah, it took a long, long time, but I finally have the boards in hand. I'll distribute them to some of the folks who attended the workshop and get them to assemble / test them out.

A jumper allows selection of 3V3 or 5V0 as input voltage coming in via the FTDI cable.Another jumper allows level shifting of the 5V0 TX signal from the computer down to 3V3 to make it ESP=8266 safe.

This was done during the KiCad workshop at the Maker's Asylum in New Delhi at the Hackaday Prize Worldwide Event on July 18th, 2015.
