Drawing a rectangle for the PCB.
Give it some depth…
…a color…
…shaping the edges…
…making some slits…
…drilling some holes…
…drilling all holes and drawing all tracks… (a hell of a job)…
…also at the bottom side…
…drawing all PCB text on it……
…placing the first component…
…put a jumper on it…
…adding the small IC-socket…
…adding the large IC-socket…
…switches…
…axes…
…rear wheels..
…tires on wheels…
…gears and odo sticker…
…motors…
…adding the first resistor…
…adding the big rectifier…
…adding a small rectifier…
…a real transistor…
…the micro controller…
…a capacitor…
…the oscillator…
…the infrared transmitter andreceiver…
…now lets place all electronic components…
…the line follower…
…the battery pack…
…wire it all up…
…fasten it with tie-wraps…
…make sure it’s connected tied…
…without solderings the drawing rotates faster…
…but with solderings, it looks nicer…
…for those wearing spectacles...
…make sure the motors are decoupled…
…at last, the Asuro ‘frontwheel’…
…come closer to the PCB edge…
…and closer…
…and even have a look inside the PCB…
…special circuitry can be highlighted…
…the infrared transmitter……
…or the Power supply tracks…
…the Odo circuit……
…and finally a closup of all special circuitry.
…as the picture says…
Again folks, this Asuro SketchUp file (20MB) will beAvailable for free at www.arexx.com in a few weeks.
The only thing you need is the free: Google SketchUp Vieweror better (faster) for modifying, the free: Google SketchUp 6from http://www.google.com/sketchup/download/
