I'm not sure if you know this already, you can use the "smash" command in eagle and click on the part so that the part name and value can be separated and moved as independent text and placed wherever in the PCB so it won't end up under other parts :)

Otherwise, nice job on the PCB :beer:

I know It looks ugly that the silk screen is just jam together like that. I certainly can use smash. I am just too lazy. :p

Maybe If I got the time to build them. Once I got everything working, I can just edit the silk screen easily in Eagle.

Looks like one of those smaller li ions for a RC car.

It's so cool that this thing is entirely self-contained.

Re: LPM In a Cube!!

Yes, I will be using ASCII. And also there is an update of a video of how the display would look like.


Thanks
Wade

Err... sorry.

I was asking about the blu-tooth.

Are you using an Application Specific Integrated Circuit?

I can't figure that the ATMEL piece has a transceiver built in - does it?

Commenting off of what Trevor had mentioned, I keep thinking about what if the display was hinged so it could be flipped out or up?
Just a Pman random thought.

I updated some more pics to show the BT module in place and working.
And no, I am not using an ASIC. It will be too expensive.
