# About

What this project is about (TODO)



# Documentation

For Documentation, we will use "doxygen" to easily create documentation pages for the project. This will be accessible in a variety of means, but primarily through HTML pages accessible through a browser, covering all aspects of the project.

More information here: @ref documentationGuide "Documentation Guide"



## Tips from Dr. Bazuin

- Make sub-circuits/sub-designs for schematics to keep things organized and modular/copy-able
- We can sit-in on Sunseeker meetings
- Need higher voltage for Lights from the supplied voltage of CANbus
- Connecting crystal oscillators to MCU
- A-213/A-216? has some power conversion example boards
- Will Beringer(?) has schematics of DC-DC converters
- MCU - Test pins need to be connected for JTAG interface
- MCU - Have switch to short !RST pin on MCU with capacitors to allow the MCU to reset
- MCU - Oth port LED toggle
- MCU - Setup clock system with using SLAU208Q, page 161
- MCU - UART on SLAU208Q, page 939
- Document things as we go
- Need to make sure we have a BOM
- Free samples for parts from manufacturers
- Make peripherals like output on one side and inputs on the other
- Use SPI Chip Select as a separate command (Use 3-pin SPI and then just use GPIO for Chip Select)



## Tips from Dr. Gomez

 - Our requirements/specifications should be made to be more measurable
 - Need to design to safety standards, which need to be researched online
 - He said that he is available himself for anything power-related to help out with if needed



# TODO List

- [ ] Make battery circuitry for Real-Time Clock/Calendar for when the vehicle is off.
- [ ] Ensure the footprint for CANbus Transceiver is present, since it's not available in Altium by default, and the import from Ultra Librarian seemed to only successfully add the schematic and 3D Model, but wasn't sure about footprint.
- [ ] The CANbus Controller required a resonator/oscillator and capacitor pair to be picked, but non-optimized values were given and so we need to test which resonator/oscillator and capacitor pair works best.
- [ ] Need to look through Sunseeker documentation to learn how they have their CANbus setup, ensuring we have our controller and transceiver setup correctly.
