| - | ====== The basic idea ====== | ||
| - | gcc/binutils/etc : software engineering :: | ||
| - | lindsay : mechanical engineering :: | ||
| - | **openbench : electrical engineering** :: | ||
| - | |||
| - | Entire 'project' consists of 6+ 'bench tools' pretty much everything except a DMM (no point to doing it) to create a platform for development, possibly speeding up the 'fab lab' revolution a bit | ||
| - | |||
| - | Tools are optimally available in 3 "configurations" : basic/low cost, better/medium cost, best/highest cost | ||
| - | |||
| - | ====== Licensing ====== | ||
| - | |||
| - | Completely open source from mechanical (DXF), to hardware (schem, layout), to firmware (CPLD/microcontroller) to software. | ||
| - | (Read more [[http://www.ladyada.net/resources/openhardware.html|here]]) | ||
| - | |||
| - | either Creative Commons, GPL, MIT, BSD or a mix | ||
| - | |||
| - | Contains only out-of-patent or unpatented technology | ||
| - | |||
| - | |||
| - | ====== Constraints ====== | ||
| - | |||
| - | Low cost, off-the-shelf, in production parts only. | ||
| - | |||
| - | DIP, PLCC, thruhole preferred. SOIC, 1206 passives and other large SMT "ok". No SSOP, QFP, LLP, uSOIC, etc. | ||
| - | |||
| - | ====== Projects ====== | ||
| - | |||
| - | All are still in part spec/planning | ||
| - | |||
| - | * LCR meter | ||
| - | * [[openbench_fgen|Waveform generator]] | ||
| - | * Frequency counter | ||
| - | * Logic analyzer | ||
| - | * Oscilloscope (the holy grail!) | ||
