Unfortunately, there are many errors or discrepancies between the various resources available for this project. Eventually, they will all be listed here; if you can then update one of the resources (schematic, PCB layout, assembly directions), please do so and then remove the error from this list. Note: This errata does not apply to the WB 2010 design by Mictronics found here: http://ladyada.net/wiki/wavebubble/wave_bubble_2010 ===== Part changes: ===== ==== Battery board ==== ^ Part ^ Incorrect ^ Correct ^ Remarks ^ | R2 | 2K, 0.25W | 500-1000 ohm | The lower the resistance, the brighter the power LED -- can be any wattage | | R3 | ? | do not place | unused | | R4 | ? | do not place | unused | | R5 | ? | do not place | unused | | Q2 | ? | do not place | unused | | D1 | ? | SS14 | | J2 | optional | | If you omit this part, you have to jumper two pads together or else you won't get power from the USB port | ==== Main (radio) board ==== ^ Part ^ Incorrect ^ Correct ^ Remarks ^ | C20 | 160pF, do not place | 390-550pF, placement recommended. | | C36 | .47uF | do not place | part of (unused) noise circuit; do not place | | C40 | 68pF | ? | Sirenza datasheets say 1-2pF, not clear if this is an error or not | | C50 | ? | 1 uF 1206 | | C51 | ? | .1 uF 1206 | | C52 | ? | 1 uF 1206 | | C53 | ? | .1 uF 1206 | | C62 | 0pF | do not place | | C63 | ? | 1pF 0603 | | C77 | ? | 4.7uF or 1uF, 0603 | Power supply filter cap; 4.7uF part is difficult to get in 0603, 1uF is ok | | C80 | 20pF | 22pF | Substitute to save money by combining order with other 22pF caps | | C81 | 20pF | 22pF | Substitute to save money by combining order with other 22pF caps | | C83 | .1uF | .1uF ? | on top/parallel R41 | | C84 | .1uF | .1uF ? | on top/parallel R43 | | D1 | 1N5817 | SS14 | | D2 | 1N5817 | SS14 | | D3 | 1N5817 | SS14 | | D4 | 1N5235 | do not place | part of (unused) noise circuit; do not place | | D5 | 1N5817 | SS14 | optional | | D6 | 1N5817 | SS14 | optional | | IC2 | LM2733X | LM2731Y | Either part will work, but the 33X is not recommended for supplies less than 16v | | L1 | 15 uH | 7.3 uH | Only change if using LM2731Y | | L5 | ? | 1K resistor | | L6 | ? | 1K resistor | | R1 | 510K | ? | Pick a low-voltage point (e.g. 3.7v) -- this voltage divider should | | R2 | 220K | ? | should output 1.1v at that point.
