Arduino Reef Monitor / Lighting Controller

[_Adrian_]

Well...
About 6 hrs of fiddling around ( from devices created in the library, schematic being drawn up to PCB board laid out ) this would be the final result

Top Layer:


Bottom Layer:


Size is 58mm x 36mm ( 2.25" x 1.4" )
SW1 - Mode Select ( External / Disable )
D2 - Fault Indicator - signal is also available externally
This board is capable of 6CH TOTAL ( CH0/CH1 and 2CH/CH3 share dimming controls )

Other than that these board will go on a Larger Main board that will hold the power rails and MOSFET's as well as it can house 4 of these modules in Master / Slave configuration.
This configuration will give 8CH of control with 12CH of Output. Slave units will be receive data from master via serial and offer an additional 12CH of output.
Please bare in mind that each channel is capable of 5A of current as well as operating up to 96VDC. Boards have been sent out and hoping to see the first batch in soon as well as more testing !!!
