Brings in main-only commits that never reached develop:
754d919 Added silk screen and headers description (MainBoard .brd)
0443516 Added thermal vias (RF_PA .brd)
5fbe051 Added ABAC INDUSTRY web site (Project_Description.docx)
12b549d / 5d5e9ff Merge PR #101: README BOM sensor counts fix
No conflicts expected: develop has not touched any of these paths.
The STM32 peripheral list in the README disagreed with the production
BOM (4_7_Production Files/Gerber_Main_Board/RADAR_Main_Board_BOM_csv)
and with the firmware (9_1_Microcontroller/.../main.cpp). Corrections
based on origin/main commit 754d919:
- ADS7830 Idq ADCs: placed on the Main Board (U88 @ 0x48, U89 @ 0x4A),
not on the Power Amplifier Boards. Added the INA241A3 (x50) and 5 mOhm
shunt detail that completes the current-sense chain.
- DAC5578 Vg DACs: placed on the Main Board (U7 @ 0x48, U69 @ 0x49),
not on the Power Amplifier Boards. Noted closed-loop Idq calibration
at boot (main.cpp powerUpSequence).
- Temperature sensors: 1x ADS7830 (U10) with 8 single-ended channels
reading 8 thermistors -- not 8 separate ADS7830 chips. Cooling is a
single GPIO (EN_DIS_COOLING), bang-bang, not PWM.
- GPS: reflect the UM982 driver merged in #79 and its role in
per-detection position tagging beyond map centering.
Counts now match the 3x ADS7830 / 2x DAC5578 / 16x INA241A3 population
in the production BOM.
Swap the verbose Alpha disclaimer paragraph for a simple
"Features: Work in Progress" badge next to the existing
Alpha badge, per review feedback from @JJassonn69.
Badge links to the issues page for current status.
Core hardware works, but GPS/map integration, attitude correction,
and beam steering UI are not yet complete — callers deserve to know
before they build on those features.
Closes gap 10.5 from reality-check review.
Added hardware and software licensing information to the README, detailing the CERN Open Hardware License for hardware and the MIT License for software.
