Project description

This is a daughter card for the various addons to the OnStep telescope mount controller designed by Howard Dutton. See?http://www.stellarjourney.com/?for information about that project. This card is specifically designed to work with a FYSETC S6 V2.0 motherboard, and adds the following interfaces:
  1. A Teensy 3.2/4.0/4.1 socket to provide both Ethernet (using a W5500 interface device) and encoders (including a 5V to 3.3v level shifter and an RJ45 socket).
  2. A Wemos ESP32 for (WiFi and BLE supporting a pocket sized wireless controller in addition to Wifi devices).
  3. A GPS for both the time/date/location update and a PPS signal.
  4. An interface for a hand controller, either a SHC or a matrix of buttons to control the mount.
  5. A 5V to 3.3V regulator because the FYSETC 3.3V supply does not have the capacity to support a fully loaded daughter card.
  6. A buzzer for audio feedback from the OnStep controller.
  7. A 12/24 V input socket and screw terminals for a power switch and connections to the FYSETC board providing power management. Because the FYSETC is fused, a decision was made to not include a fuse on this board.? Please add an external fuse if you desire one.
This connects to the FYSETC with two wires for? power, plus 5 cables - 2 ribbon 10 pin connectors, one 4 pin cable and two 3 pin cables.? All are straight through cables.
