  • The circuit board has been updated with the following changes:
    • Quartz oscillator, much more precise than our previous ceramic resonator. This makes timing calibration unnecessary.
    • Switching power circuit, which reduces heating compared to our previous regulated circuit.
    • A copper plane connecting all the LEDs, in order to better dissipate the heat they generate.
    • A more robust power connector.
  • The firmware was updated to be compatible with the new oscillator.
  • A few of the 3D printed designs were updated to be compatible with the new circuit board.
  • Files were reorganized.
