Board 1.3 vs 1.4

Posted on
  • Hi!

    I've received two new Espruino boards today which are Rev. 1.4b while my old one was Rev 1.3.

    Out of curiosity, whats the difference between them both? I couldn't find any details about it on the website or github.

    Cheers,
    Mario

  • Ahh - I'm waiting until the remaining stock of 1v3 in distributors has cleared before I update the docs.

    Basically:

    • CE Approval
    • 32kHz crystal on board (it's much better at keeping time accurately now)
    • Pads for a Lithium Ion charger IC (if you want to fit one)
    • Slightly moved, but much stronger Micro USB connector
    • Much lower power voltage regulator - the old board drew 0.1mA in sleep, this one draws 0.03mA!
    • solder jumpers so you can turn the reset button into a second general purpose button

    I think that's it, but there could be a bit more...

  • hehe .. okay, thank you for the quick overview, sounds like a good upgrade!

  • Hello Gordon, will you publish the eagle files version 1.4 in GitHub?

    actually , I'm interested in the schematics pdf for the v 1.4

    Thank You

  • Sure. I've just attached a schematic, but I seem to have a few copies of the files here (copies got send backward and forwards with Seeed) so I want to be sure I've got the correct versions before I update GitHub!
