I have access to wiring diagrams for any vehicle available in North American 1983-present. Sometimes I can cross it over to Rest Of World cars. If you need schematics for anything, feel free to email me. alandaeric at hotmail dot com


The very bottom of my page has all the questions I am trying to figure out and stuck on, above that (and below this) is the answers I have recieved and some more questions that I have yet to put effort into looking for an answer. If you are bored and would like to plug in what I need to know or answer some of the questions I have yet to try, feel welcome.


SHOPPING LIST

Have: Everything, except I forgot to order the dpak fet

GenboardV3.2

1 x TPIC8101DW. Dual-channel acoustic knock sensor interface chip

1 x Stepper driver IC, package: DIP16

9 x FET: FQPF20N06L (FAI) 15A,

1 x DPAK FET for genboard v3.2

make sure you use a flyback diode if driving inductive loads with the DPAK FET. The flyback diode (eg. BY399 is fast 3A, or 1n4007 is slower 1A diode. ES2J is a fast 2A SMB footprint SMD diode) can live in the harness, or on-board (no dedicated pads!). The lack of flyback diode will ruin the DPAK FET and possibly cause other damage when inductive loads are driven.

MY PROJECT

Ford 347 stroker

  • Use the same driver as the original IGBT is driven from, just solder a jumper wire in place of the IGBT, between the 2 pins closest to the EC36 connector, and use ign_out=70 in your config /Emil

about my_make or config.txt? config.txt contains all of your tables and running settings, and my_make contains settings regarding hardware (enabling LCD, keyboard, WBO2, etc). If you are looking to learn about config.txt, look into the file called global.h, or read through MembersPage/Jimw/Config

A lot of settings are also described in the manual.

Will this VFD work easily??

It's a serial VFD, it will not work. You need a paralell interface with a 44080 compatible command set. Note that VFD displays often have small incompatibilities with LCD displays even if they are listed as LCD compatible.


WISH LIST


QUESTIONS

I need to be better at watching for changes, I didnt realize there was stuff asked/answered here.

In the end it is not a big deal as you can search long and hard enough to find the answers to every question you have, but stuff like this I think really adds to the length of time and confusion it takes to get a board up and running

shows

JP8

? , ? , JP2

? , JP6 , JP5

as the pin identification for the input triggers.

Below shows it correctly

The pinout of the 2x3 header on v3.2 (besides the 2x3 it has a lonely GND pad too):

a lonely GND pad - -
GND EC36pin27 primary_trigger (JP2 ) JP7
VCC EC36pin13 secondary_trigger (JP5) JP13
*

The manual is very clear on where to attach the jumpers for the normal build

BUT While reading I found somewhere, cant remember where, cant seem to find it again, that talked about hooking the primary trigger wires (vr) to JP8 and JP7 directly so to avoid noisy signal problems. I assume that is a bit overcautious but since I am using a different connector to join this to a Honda harness, I have lots of wires inside jumping around, thought if anything would, this would cause noise problems. Instead of using the EC36 holes, I soldered a sheilded wire directly from JP8 (vr-) and JP7 (vr+) to my honda conector and out. Plus I can leave the resistor r30 in and not have to worry about installing it later if I change my input trigger plans.

Right??
