Delete Branch "%!s(<nil>)"
Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
Disclaimer: The following data is fictional and does not represent real-world performance of the Archimajor Rambo Board
Summary
v0.4 of the Alpha main board fails required spec: 4KV contact discharge at endstop inputs.
Failure Mode(s): 10/10 cases SAM3X processor enters reset condition. 2/10 cases, memory is corrupted.
Analysis
Atmel SAM3X (pg. 1378) specifies max VDDIO operating voltage of 4.0V. Contact ESD discharge with no alternate ground path exceeds this value with significant energy content.
Simulation Results
The following simulation shows the circuit response to 4K discharge with no ESD protection.
