Home Grown ActionTec Development Daughterboard

TWIMC:

Thanks to the great "reverse engineering" work of Patrick McNamara, I've 
decided I have enough information to build my own Actiontec Dual PC 
"development board".

My primary design goal was to produce a version of ActionTec's Development 
Daughterboard which can be used with the plastic enclosure *in place*. 
This scheme (hopefully) adds a DB-9 RS-232 serial port connector, a USB 
Type-A connector, a "boot mode" slide switch, and a "reset" button to one 
side of the enclosure (opposite J5).

Take a look at the "Wiki" to see what's happened so far...

Note that "photo" of the "home grown" daughterboard is a "mock up".

I just sent out an all surface-mount PCB for fab.  I hope to have 
everything working sometime next week.

I'll be putting this hardware into the public domain.  I have no plans to 
build and sell these.  However, anyone can order 9 PCB's from ExpressPCB 
for ~$60, and the needed part's from Digikey (<$20 each PCB).

Best regards,

Bruce
