First mis-match batch of 5 of these is near done.
2x Ophir v1.1
2x TEC v1.1
1x TEC v1

I went through a lot of the analog to digital converters on this, they really dislike the heat, I've got to turn the temperature on my reflow gun down.

The TEC ones wont be available until I get my Ophir head calibration checked out yet again, even though I just had it tested against a Coherent field max. Best to be safe, I do not want to sell any LPM's with poor calibration.

The Ophir ones will be ready sooner, after I verify they are working as intended.

Mine should be here soon it's either in SAN FRANCISCO, CA 94188 or already left there.
 
Just ordered my Ophir version 1.1v today.
ARGlaser sent me a heads up via email.:paypal::takeit:
:thanks: I'll do a full review once I get it up and running.
Pics and a video.
 
Out of v1.1.0 PCB's. v1.1.1 will be coming soon. Any (small) requests?

So far no big changes.
-Smaller resistors
-Positions changed on some capacitors.
-Removed pull up resistors on buttons. (Using internal ones)

The functionality and appearance of it all wont change it's the same thing, this is just maintenance changes.

Nothing will change that effects function, don't worry.
v1.1.1 and v1.1.0 are the exact same thing, I just moved some components around.
 
Just kidding man. By the way down the road all I would have to do in just get a new shield and I would be right back up to date.

Hi Arg,

Does that mean I don't need to install those particular resistors?
(are these the ones for the push buttons)

Unfortunately the v1.1.0 is set up such that the external pullups have to be used, design flaw on my part.

NP, just needed to know for shopping list of parts :thanks:


The PCB was delivered today, just 8 days from ordering :-)
Thanks Arg

Glad to know the PCB got there safe! I was worried the edges would cut into the package, so I put it in the ESD bag.
