Can someone help me stretch the MD01 card to suit the MEGA?

Post by bebetufs »

Hello.
I want to strecth the MD01 board so that I can use my Arduino Mega. I thought this would be simple in Target 3001, but I got lost in the program. I will post a photo of what I mean later, but the board simply needs to be streched between the arduino pins and the power supply to make room for the mega board. This should be a quick fix for you Target 3001 gurus right?
If so I would be extremely thankful if you could do it for me!
TIA

Here's a link to the Mega PCB design files: http://arduino.cc/en/uploads/Main/ardui ... design.zip

Hello,

You could just put a Seeeduino Mega on top.

In case you need the Arduino Mega i can strech you the Layout ;-)

I would really appreciate it if you could stretch the board to fit the Mega :) I already own one which I want to use.

I also have semi working menu system and code for interfacing through a rotary encoder as I have been working on a similar project on my own. The menu system has entries for a lot of car specific parameters and alarms.

hello,

there is a problem with the I2C Pins, they have moved on the mega! So just Strech will not work...

Do you want to reroute the board or just that the Mega fits on top? :?:

Thanks for trying to help. I appreciate it a lot.

I would prefer rerouting as I plan to use these pins. I don't know how much extra work rerouting would be? is it simply a question of moving four traces and leaving the pins in place?

If it is a lot of work please leave them and do the stretch only. If so I will try to figure out a way to get around this issue myself.

Thanks.
