Sunny Vario

I assembled the first version of this board. The solar charge works already and the board powers up. Still working on the firmware. Setting the pin registers in the msp430 is painfully slow and time is scarce in the lead up to Xmas.

No problem on the vario volume tho, I tested it at 3V and it was too loud (on shoulder strap), louder than my full size digifly vario.

Adding the schematics, BOM and design files for the one square inch project deadline. I wanted to wait until I tested the boards before uploading them here. But as this is what i have sent to manufacture i will upload it as is. You can find a pdf version on the git repo I just created for the project Suny_Vario.

The PCBs have arrived from OSHPark.com. I am very happy with the isolation around the pins on the MSP430. Time to put the parts on. As always there are obvious improvements in the silkscreen that I will make for the next version. I better get cracking on the firmware.
