davidmprpplague, panda daughter cards just got urgent, the Panda boards shipped from DIgikey, all of them17:57
ogra\o/17:59
davidmprpplague, what is the thread size of the metal standoffs you use? I ordered the wrong size for my test, I had to drill out the holes but it did not matter for the test rack18:01
prpplaguedavidm: they pandaboards currently use 4/40 threads18:32
davidmprpplague, thanks, I'll order up a proper supply today18:33
davidmprpplague, the recommended power supply is 5VDC 4A, do you know how much of that is spare?18:37
prpplaguedavidm: 2A would be if you weren't using any usb devices18:39
prpplaguedavidm: talk to ctyler, he's been testing running multiple pandas from a single power supply18:39
hrwdavidm: 2 usb ports = 1A extra if they are used18:41
prpplaguehrw: 4 ports on the panda so, 2A extra18:44
davidm_prpplague, thanks, I'm just seeing what powersupply to order today19:03
davidm_Since we are planning on USB disk I'll make sure to allow the extra then19:03
prpplaguedavidm_: http://www.tigerdirect.ca/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=4558896&csid=ITD&body=MAIN#productresources19:06
prpplaguedavidm_: thats what ctyler is using19:06
davidm_Woot Panda boards just arrived YEA!!!!19:09
GrueMasterCool.19:10
davidm_prpplague, thanks, that supply won't work for me but it's good to know a combined supply works I'm going to order an 80A 5VDC with a 12A 12VDC supply19:11
prpplaguedavidm_: dandy19:12
davidm_The 12V is for the relay controls, the relays run on 12V  I'm going to wire it for NC applys power to Panda, NO applys power to latch on daughter card19:13
prpplaguedavidm_: which relays are 12V?19:14
davidm_The serial control relays the ones that give us remote control over the panda boards19:15
davidm_not the one you are using for the latch19:15
davidm_I am going to use a rack of 24 relays, only 20 wired that we can connect to via serial control to activate and deactivate the panda boards19:16
davidm_think of it as a remote reset on power19:16
davidm_Since I'm using a single power supply and not 20 power supplys19:17
prpplaguedavidm_: ahh19:17
NCommanderhey all19:17
davidm_I'm going ot have to be quite careful of the power supply, you can weld at 80 apms of power19:18
davidm_s/apms/amps/19:18
davidm_I'm starting to think that I might want to use some fuses inline with all that power19:19
GrueMasterheh, reminds me of the custom powersupplies we had at Intel.  3.3v 320 amp, 5v 200 amp.  And they had two lugs for the wiring harness to bolt on to, about 2 inches apart.19:21
rsalvetidavidm_: awesome19:24
