UniBone Kit Arrived!

[Kevin McQuiggin]

Hi All:

Just FYI, my UniBone kit arrived, so the build is in progress.  

I will post comments as I build, test and then install the board.

Thanks to Joerg for the 2025-02 board update!

What are the updates for 2025-02? I looked back on the mailing list
archive and didn't see an announcement around Feb 2025.

(I have older boards, probably from the first or second run. Curious
what the change are).

Cheers,

All boards are functionally identically.
PCB layout changes over the years:
- introduction of the fixed Beaglebone spacers.
- gradually replaced "Through the hole" parts by SMTs,
- removed the I2C EEPROM address jumpers.
- Make the "BUS-ON" LED controllable by software,
- Moved LEDs around,
- cleanup the NPG/BG jumpers
- added a 2x5 pin plug for the status-LEDs and mode-switches
- alternate sockets for both AM26S10 and 8641 bus drivers.

kind regards,

Joerg
