I am new to the forum and I am currently designing my own development board using the imp002 module. I have a couple of questions on the hardware requirements for such a design:
Is there any additional hardware (other than power supply and bypass capacitors) to get the imp002 module up and running?
I am wanting to bless imp001 modules later on without using the LEDs and phototransitors method, is this possible? If so, how would I go about designing for this?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
The reference designs are the place to start. There are designs featuring both Imps with various support components. The only additional components you need for the imp002 are the photo transistor, Bi-color LED and related resistors (other than what you mentioned). I will be posting the designs/Eagle files for the two imp002 boards that I am building when they are fully tested and in production, but they are based on the reference designs so there isn’t much new there.
Glad you asked. Here at MakeDeck, we really like the Imp module, and decided to design our own breakouts and manufacture some of the reference designs. If there are specific features that you are looking for, please let us know. Aria is available now, and P3V3 and C3V0 will be available very soon.
