RE: [OT] iPad query...

["Neil Wrightson" <neilw@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Dave,

A small comment.
I find star pattern devices like your model take up to much room on the
desk. The box is small but when leads are plugged in it turns into an
octopus 200..300mm in diameter.
I feel it's better to have all leads out the back and maybe just a power
led
on the front.


Regards,

Neil Wrightson.

Hi Phil and all,

I have now added the 2.5mm jack to the PCB design. See here.

I have arrange it so that if you have a USB power adaptor connected and you
plug in the external power supply via the jack plug it disconnects the USB
supply to avoid them shorting out and the need for diodes.

There is a 3D PDF you can download and rotate around here. Just open with
Adobe Reader and click on the image to enable the 3D mode.

Definitely up for that - happy to paypal you some funds to contribute to
costs too of course...

Have a few USB hub PSUs flapping around - might be worth popping on a DC
jack as well (or instead) into the design so the iPad psu can be kept for
other use?
