This is where documentation / credits / kudos for the badge go!

Hey guys, thanks for visiting us at Penguicon! Here are some of the current details about the badge:

The rework is captured in the schematic, but briefly:

  • No load R15
  • No load Q1
  • Place Schottky diode (same as D10) where Q1 is as seen on schematic

BOM Coming soon.

The code is very brief and hacked up from the original source, but rest assured a newer version will be coming soon!

TODO:

  • USB Bootloader!
  • Clean-up and remove un-used code from the source
  • Use bitshift/etc functions!

Assembly Instructions

Each kit should contain the following items:

  • (9) 100Ω resistor (Brown-Black-Brown-Gold) → R1,R2,R3,R4,R5,R6,R7,R8,R9
  • (1) 1.8KΩ resistor (Brown-White-Red-Gold) → R11
  • (2) 68Ω resistor (Blue-Grey-Black-Gold-Brown) → R12,R13
  • (1) 10KΩ resistor (Brown-Black-Orange-Gold) → R14
  • (1) 20Ω resistor (Red-Black-Black-Gold-Brown) → R16
  • (2) 1N5817 Schottky diode → D10,Q1
  • (1) 1N29A Zener diode → D11
  • (2) 18pF capacitor → C1,C2
  • (1) 0.1µF capacitor → C3
  • (1) crystal → X1
  • (1) momentary push-button switch → S1
  • (1) USB type-A plug → I2
  • (9) LED → D1,D2,D3,D4,D5,D6,D7,D8,D9
  • (1) battery holder → J1
  • (1) IC socket → U1
  • (1) ATTiny 4313-PU → socketed

Step 1 - LED resistors

Put 9 100Ω resistors into R1-R9.

Step 2 - rear resistor

Put the 1.8KΩ resistor into R11 (on the back of the board).

Step 3 - USB resistors

Put 2 68Ω resistors into R12 and R13.

Step 4 - front resistor

Put the 10KΩ resistor into R14.

(Ignore R15 -- nothing will be going into this spot.)

Step 5 - rear resistor 2

Put the 20Ω resistor into R16.

Step 6 - rear Schottky diode

Put 1 1N5817 Schottky diode into D10. Diodes are picky about the direction they are facing -- be sure to line up the silver band on the diode with the band on the board's image (as shown in the picture).

Step 7 - front Schottky diode

Put 1 1N5817 Schottky diode into Q1. This one can get very tricky since the diode isn't properly sized for this hole. It's not super-clear in the picture, but you will need to carefully feed the silver-banded side of the diode toward the "3" hole of Q1, and the other side through the "1" hole. If the diode just won't go through, then you can try sanding the leads down a bit with some sandpaper to make it fit.

Step 8 - rear Zener diode

Put the 1N29A Zener diode into D11. Again, make sure the brown-banded side lines up with the band on the board's image.

Step 9 - crystal capacitors

Put 2 18pF capacitors in C1 and C2.

Step 10 - power capacitor

Put the 0.1µF capacitor in C3.

Step 11 - crystal

Put the crystal in X1.

Step 12 - button

Put the momentary push-button switch in S1. The switch has a particular orientation, so do not force it if it doesn't seem to fit easily the first time -- rotate it 90 degrees and try again.

Step 13 - socket

Put the IC socket in U1. Make sure that the "dimple" (seen on the right side of the socket in the photo) lines up with the dimple on the board image.

You will also place the USB type-A plug in I2. You will want to solder the two posts on the outside of the connector first, then the four smaller pins in the middle. Even though it's kind of tricky, try to keep it flush with the board while soldering it on. Sometimes a bit of tape can help keep it in place enough to solder it on.

Step 14 - LEDs

Put the LEDs in D1-D9. The "D" in "LED" stands for "Diode", so like all other diodes, you will also need to make sure they are facing in the correct direction. Make sure that the shorter leg of the diode goes through the "K" hole.

Step 15 - battery holder

Put the battery holder leads in J1. The wires are supposed to come up through the back of the board, and then down into the holes, as illustrated, to provide for some strain relief. You can also cross them as shown for a little extra strain relief. Make sure that the red wire of the battery holder goes into the hole marked with a "+".

Step 16 - ATTiny

Finally, put the ATTiny 4813-PU IC into the IC socket in U1. You will again need to line the dimple on the IC package toward the dimple on the IC socket.

Step 17 - power on!

Put in three AAA batteries and turn on the switch on the battery pack. You should see your LEDs light up (possibly after a bit of delay -- be patient). Congratulations on completing the solder badge challenge! Wear your swanky badge proudly.
