Arduino shield 0.5

The Bpod/Arduino shield allows Bpod to control Arduino devices. It's very simple to build. Here's how.

1: Order all parts in the Bill of Materials.

- These parts can be purchased from commercial suppliers except for the printed circuit board.

We have previously used SeeedStudio's FusionPCB service as follows:

i. Select QTY: 10

PCB Layer: 2

PCB Thickness: 1.6mm

PCB Dimension: 5cm max X 10cm max

PCB Color: green

Surface Finish: HASL

This should work out to ~$2.39 per board for an order of 10 boards (Jan 2014). Select "Next".

ii. Select C:\Bpod\CAD\PCB\BpodArduinoShield\BpodArduinoShield_r1_Gerber.zip and finish the order.

2: Gather tools. You'll need:

- A clean soldering iron and sponge

- Solder

3. Follow the assembly instructions.
