GEMS OF WISDOM
- Make sure you coordinate among yourselves such that no person in the group is idle while one of the group members is coding
- If you are unable to solve a problem with the circuit:(i) check if the power is ON (ii) check if the chip is broken (ground pin missing or short circuited)
- Due to the large number of wires involved, it is always better to label the wires while making the initial connections
- It is always better to take long wires
- When you try to finalize on some concept/idea make sure it is feasible in all ways that is mechanical, electrical and for software implementation
- If you need to order anything online make sure you do that in the beginning itself , so that you have enough time to work on it once it arrives
- Always there is Epoxy to your rescue to fix any of the mechanical parts
- For coding always use headers, this helps while you put all code together
- Document the pins' allocations
- Get access to PRL by attending the safety class
