The PCB takes the nominal 14.8 V\u00a0from the battery and steps the voltage down to 12 V for the LiDAR and steps up to 19 V for the computer. We also added an AC\/DC adapter to the board for early power-on of the computer using a constant power source to get GPS lock-on, which can take several minutes. LEDs are used to check for battery connection, adapter connection, and voltage regulation to the LiDAR, computer, and powerpath controller.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-210 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/mrsdprojects.ri.cmu.edu\/2016teamb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2016\/11\/PDS-schematic-1.png\" alt=\"pds-schematic\" width=\"2215\" height=\"1374\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mrsdprojects.ri.cmu.edu\/2016teamb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2016\/11\/PDS-schematic-1.png 2215w, https:\/\/mrsdprojects.ri.cmu.edu\/2016teamb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2016\/11\/PDS-schematic-1-300x186.png 300w, https:\/\/mrsdprojects.ri.cmu.edu\/2016teamb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2016\/11\/PDS-schematic-1-768x476.png 768w, https:\/\/mrsdprojects.ri.cmu.edu\/2016teamb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2016\/11\/PDS-schematic-1-1024x635.png 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2215px) 100vw, 2215px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-209 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/mrsdprojects.ri.cmu.edu\/2016teamb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2016\/11\/PDS-board-layout-1.png\" alt=\"pds-board-layout\" width=\"1912\" height=\"1502\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mrsdprojects.ri.cmu.edu\/2016teamb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2016\/11\/PDS-board-layout-1.png 1912w, https:\/\/mrsdprojects.ri.cmu.edu\/2016teamb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2016\/11\/PDS-board-layout-1-300x236.png 300w, https:\/\/mrsdprojects.ri.cmu.edu\/2016teamb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2016\/11\/PDS-board-layout-1-768x603.png 768w, https:\/\/mrsdprojects.ri.cmu.edu\/2016teamb\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2016\/11\/PDS-board-layout-1-1024x804.png 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1912px) 100vw, 1912px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A custom PCB was needed for power management of our LiDAR sensor (Velodyne) and the onboard computer (Gigabyte Brix).
