💬 MDMSNode "Power"

@kalina what is the purpose of the vias on the AC traces? Thermal relief from the components on the other side?

[kalina]

@sundberg84, vias connect the AC traces on the TOP and BOT layers (see picture). This was done for reduce resistance of the conductors and distribute the heat caused by the flow of large currents through them.

Kalina,
What CAD program are you using for this project? The board file does not seem to be Eagle or KiCad.

Hi @lagrosso69. Do you mean a sketch? Did you order pcb and solder MDMSNode "Power" by yourself?

[lagrosso69]

@kalina no i bought your mdmsnode by ebay and i would love to try it here

[kalina]

@lagrosso69
OK, the MDMSNode "Power" is selling with a programmed bootloader and a sketch inside.

Hi@kalina ok thank you

[sindrome73]

would it be possible to have the ACS711 sketch ???

[kalina]

@sindrome73 Of course, yes. It's a matter of time. I have a lot of tasks at work and I can't do this right now.

[sindrome73]

thanks .... I wait because I do not know how to use it

[sindrome73]

Hi, if you have a minute of memories of me ???

[kalina]

@sindrome73 Hi, time for what?

[sindrome73]

for a sketch piece where the ASC711 is used. because I would like to use it for a similar project, but I do not know how to use it to have a reading for AC. so since you used an asc711 in your project, I thought you could help me ....
Thanks 10000

[kalina]

@sindrome73 OK, but it could be in 1-2 weeks, as i wrote earlier, i very busy now...

[sindrome73]

Ah.... Ok :thumbsup:
