MEP EP#291: Vaporized Copper Stiction

Bias Test system update

  • Happy with the two A/D Converters. Got *all* channels running
  • Made a simple breakout board to be able to access all the pins easier
  • 16 pin IDC cable is holding up to 450V seemingly ok - real test will be with all signals
  • Resistor measurement was adjusted slightly
  • Checked against 4 multimeter and getting values “in range”
    • Next steps
      • Finish a first version of the arduino code
      • Merge the skipi communication with my code
      • Solder into an actual amp to get real world values
      • Schedule next python thing
      • Jiva Materials

        • “The World’s First Fully Recyclable PCB Substrate”
        • https://www.jivamaterials.com/
        • PCB board that when soaked in hot water starts to delaminate
          • Jiva is in the process of ensuring that Soluboard® is compatible with aqueous PCB fabrication processes. Jiva is also engineering Soluboard® to be resistant to high humidity environments.
          • No technical specifications yet
          • Circuits/metals are applied in traditional ways (plating and etching)
          • Relay Dissection

            • Had a relay stick closed during some “experimenting”
            • Cut off the top to find out what happened
            • Fixing circuit boards

              • Methods
              • Reddit post/thread that spawned the converstation
              • ...more
