v1.4
Release notes - Marble v1.4
This release corresponds to the third pre-production batch of Marble boards (v1.4) manufactured by Vector Fabrication Inc. in Milpitas, California. Five (5) boards were produced in May 2023 for testing, in preparation for a larger production run. The major difference between the previous versions and v1.4 is the new power management chip from Analog Devices LTM4673.
This version included various additions/checks from the fab house:
- Addition of serial number on the back silkscreen.
- Heatsinks on U1 (FPGA) and U2 (clock mux).
- Tested for no-short-circuited power-plane at the test points.
Following rework was done to get the boards to function:
- Replaced U52 with PCA9509DP
- Solder R309 with 4.7k
- DNP R147 and populate R158
- Swapped R39 and R40 from 2.2k to 4.99k
