SHOT Flash Memory Schematic (A1): -The flash memory holds two megabytes of data. -A level shifter allows the AVR, which runs on 5V, to communicate with the 3.3V flash memory. Flash Memory 5V to 3.3V Level Shifter Filter capacitor Highlight your schematic

SHOT In-System Programming Schematic (B2): -Using the ISP header with an AVRISP, which will be introduced later, allows the AVR to be programmed without removing it from the circuit. Highlight your schematic

SHOT Current Sub System: Power Subsystem: Activation Power Regulation Sensor Subsystem: Temperature Sensor Pressure Sensor X & Y Axis Accelerometers Z Axis Accelerometers Geiger Counter Interface Command and Data Handling: AVR, Memory, & In-System Serial Programming (ISP) Data Retrieval

SHOT Level Shifter Board Schematic (D4): -The level shifter board allows the AVR, which runs on 5V, to communicate with a computer serial port, which uses +/- 12V. To Computer To main board

SHOT Data Header: -Solder one (1) right angle header into the footprints labeled Data on the Main Board. -The bent pins should be the ones that are soldered. -Caution: When clipping these leads, ensure that you are wearing your eye protection.

SHOT Data Header 2: Data -Solder one (1) right angle header into the footprints labeled Data on the Data Board. -The bent pins should be the ones that are soldered. -Caution: When clipping these leads, ensure that you are wearing your eye protection.

SHOT Level Shifter Socket: -Solder one (1) level shifter socket into the footprint labeled Level Shifter. -Tip: It works well to tack two corners on the back side to ensure it is mounted correctly before soldering all pins.

SHOT DB9 Serial Connector: -Solder one (1) DB9 serial connector into the data transfer board. -Make sure that the connector is flush with the board and the prongs are securing the board before you begin soldering.

SHOT Resistors (R11): -Solder one (1) 10k resistor into the footprint labeled R11.

SHOT Capacitors (C10): Solder one (1) 1μF capacitor into the footprint labeled C10. C10

SHOT Data LED: -Solder one (1) red LED into the footprint labeled ON. -Note: LEDs are polarized. The flat side of the LED is the negative side and should be placed in the footprint accordingly.

SHOT ESD/Heat Concern: ESD is electrostatic discharge caused by built up charge on your person from not wearing your protective ESD wrist strap. When soldering heat sensitive components, use the guideline 2-3 on, 8-10 seconds off. ESD WARNING: The following components are extremely ESD and heat sensitive!

SHOT Level Shifter Insertion: LS -Remove the level shifter from the ESD foam. -Align the notch from the level shifter with the one on the level shifter dip on the board, and GENTLY work the level shifter into the socket. -Take your time with this, bent leads are extremely difficult to straighten. Notch

SHOT AVR Insertion: -Remove the AVR from the ESD foam. -Align the notch from the AVR with the one on the AVR socket on the board, and GENTLY work the AVR into the socket. -Take your time with this, bent leads are extremely difficult to straighten. AVR Notch
