18. Schematic Overview

19. Schematic – Power Supply The Power Supply is a basic switching regulator. Two reference designs are under consideration, a final choice will be based upon a final circuit mock-up to determine actual current draw. Two reference designs are under consideration, a final choice will be based upon a final circuit mock-up to determine actual current draw. The circuit board will utilize a unique jumper based voltage isolation scheme. The board will have the ability to turn on/off +5V to both the video circuit, and the main microcontroller circuit to aid in debugging as well as isolate chips to simplify programming. Noise introduction will be minimal compared to utility in debugging. The circuit board will utilize a unique jumper based voltage isolation scheme.

26. Schematic -- RS-232 The HCS12 has a built-in RS-232 port. That will be connected to a MAX232 line driver for isolation. This port will mainly be used for debugging and interfacing to Motorola’s CodeWarrior suite.

27. Digital Audio The audio circuit is a PWM driven follower circuit. 1 channel means simplistic audio where the audible frequency (tone) is adjusted by the PWM duty cycle. Audio is not a critical goal of the design, so simple beeps [and boops] will suffice.
