felix_Bertl_oO: is there anything i still need to do regarding the axoim photonsdi hardware design? today and tomorrow i'd have a bit of spare time to do some stuff if needed15:05
se6astianis the bom complete and the component placement decided?15:06
felix_hm, i don't know hot the component placement gets exported to be used with the pick and place machine15:15
felix_the bom should be complete; if you'd like to have that, i could look up the digikey order numbers15:16
se6astianwe are not using the pick and place machine for prototypes15:17
felix_ok, sounds reasonable15:18
se6astianfor boms we use octopart, very convenient15:18
felix_ok, i'll look into that15:20
felix_which option should i use if a component order number is different for the chip packaged in a tube or on a reel?15:32
se6astianwhatever you prefer15:33
felix_uh, when i build a prototype i usually order the chips in a tube, but for small series using a reel might be the better option. i never did a (small) series on my own; only had people taking a design i made and getting it somehow into production without me looking at what they exactly did there15:38
felix_ordering chips on a reel adds a bit to the cost when you don't order a full reel15:39
se6astianright, then tubes sound like the better option15:43
felix_ok, if that works with the pick and place machine, i'll use the tube version15:44
felix_hm, i'm not sure if the other version will be a reel or cut tape15:46
felix_uh, oh, bad news: the TPS82085 is currently out of stock :( last time i looked they were still in stock (some other modules from the same series were out of stock though)15:54
felix_hope that you still have some spare ones of that chip; iirc you used those on the new revision of the power supply board...16:00
felix_have you any preferred resistor/capacitor/led manufacturers?16:01
felix_hmm, i probably should have a look again at the google spreadsheet inventory thing. can you send me the url to that page again?16:02

felix_https://octopart.com/bom-tool/qme05BU4 will add the passives and leds either later today or tomorrow; had to do some customer support in the meantime and now it's time for some sport17:04
Bertl_oOno worries, the parts have already been ordered a few days ago ;)17:21
Bertl_oOI made some assumptions on the ferrite beads and capacitors but otherwise it should be what you had in your BOM a week ago17:21

felix_ah, ok; so i don't continue with the bom20:09
felix_yeah, i was quite busy last week. osfc and ibc were wirth the visit though20:10
felix_*worth20:11
felix_at ibc i talked with some companies making caxial connectors; apart from samtec and amphenol there are also https://www.cambridgeelectronics.com/ and http://www.coax-connectors.com/20:12
tpbTitle: Home - COAX Connectors (at www.coax-connectors.com)20:12
felix_might also be worth a look for the hdbnc-bnc cables20:12
felix_oh and i found it interesting that some company has a sdi card that's not based on an fpga, but an asic. didn't think that the volume of chips needed was high enough so that an asic is cheaper20:14
Kjetil_I guess ASIC have become a lot cheaper20:18
felix_oh and for the axiom remote it might be worth looking into the tasters used in commercial professional audio and video consoles. sure they are rather expensive (maybe 8-12 euro per piece), but those are really good20:19
felix_hm, yeah, if you don't need the newest process, things might have gotten more affordable than i remembered20:19
se6astian"worth looking into the tasters used in commercial professional audio and video consoles" which are those?20:21
felix_i'll have a look when i'm back home; haven't brought the stack of paper i got at the ibc to my office yet20:23
* felix_ writes that on his todo list20:23
se6astianthanks20:25
