** Sample #1 (Barometer sensor) [#taa89744]
>
The barometer module, AE-SCP1000-D01, is used for this sample.

>
- Schematic~
&ref(bc10-002-0003.pdf);~
The schematic is only available. Since no boards are created for this sample, there is no Gerber data.~

>
- Description~
The barometer module works between 2.4~3.3V (standard 2.7V), and the outputs of this module can be read via~
SPI connection. For this sample, the 2.85V output LDO (Low Drop Output) type Power Supply IC (S191841DT-285)~
is selected. If output voltage (including the margin of error) is between 2.4 and 3.3V, the original IC can be replaced~
with other makers' ICs here. (To use other power supply ICs, be careful with voltage drop, too.)~
~
※ For bc10, 3.3V output includes the margin of error, and occasionally its output voltage exceeds 3.3V. This excess~
voltage highly unlikely causes malfunctions on this barometer module. To meet the guideline of the data sheet,~
use this Power Supply IC and reduce the voltage at 2.85V.~
~
The digital interface of bc10 is 1.8V level, and this module cannot directly connect to bc10. (As directly connecting the~
two devices, it may cause damages on bc10.) To connect these devices, the signals are needed to be transferred between~
1.8V and 2.85V. For the connection, a Voltage Conversion IC, TXB108 is employed. As this IC  is only capable of surface~
mount, a pitch converter board is used for mounting this Voltage Converter IC.~
~
bc10 and the barometer sensor module is attached via a the voltage converter. 4 lines of SPI (CLK. MOSI, MISO, and CS)~
and one line of  TRG and DRDY (totally 2) are connected. The latter 2 lines are connected to 2 lines of GPIO (GPIO_152~
and GPIO_153, respectively).~
~
On the sample, the empty pins are remain open. There are no issues for experimental level, but to use the device in far~
more stable condition, pull-up resistors can be applied.~

-- 0.01μF and 1μF ceramic capacitors are for using the Power Supply IC S191841DT-285. If other makers' IC is used,~
please study its recommended circuit, first. 
-- Pin Headers are divided into 2 groups (2x5) and used.
~
- Instructions~
Go through whole assembly process before actually start working on the board.
-- Each part is placed where is should be, and examine the layout and the order of wiring.
-- Wire the Power Supply IC (S191841DT-285) at empty space of the universal pattern. Gaps between IC pins are narrow,~
so that please be careful with short circuit. To use the pitch converter board, easily wire it on.
-- The IC socket, which is attached to the barometer module, is mounted. Wires keep longer as each wire pulls out from the pin.
-- the voltage converter IC is mounted on to the pitch converter board as using Pin Headers.
-- Wire each connector.

** Sample #2 (Thermometer sensor) [#hb74b6d6]
>
A thermometer sensor and an AD converter are used for this sample.~
- Schematic~
&ref(bc10-002-0006.pdf);~
The schematic is only available. Since any boards are not created for this sample, there is no Gerber data.~
- Description~
The thermometer sensor is an analog output type sensor, which changes the output voltages proportional to temperatures.~
It outputs 10.0mV per 1 degree Celsius, and it can  measure from 0 to 70 degree Celsius (accuracy of 4 degree Celsius).~
Since the expansion board connectors of bc10 do not have analog input interface, analog outputs must be converted into~
digital values via an analog-digital converter. Both thermometer sensor and analog-digital converter work between~
2.7~5.5V, and bc10 provide power to the sensor and converter at the level of 3.3V.  On the other hand, the digital interface~
of bc10 requires at level of 1.8V, so it cannot connect directly. (If the direct connection may cause significant damage on bc10.)~
To connect these devices, the signal is needed to transfer between 1.8V and 3.3V. To do voltage conversion, TCB0108 is used.~
This IC is not surface mount type, and a pitch converter board is used for mounting this voltage converter IC.~
~
As long as keeping pairs A1~A8 with B1~B8, a pair can be replaced with the other pair. 1.8V is placed at A-side,~
and 3.3V is always on B-side. bc10 and the analog-digital converter are connected via the voltage conversion IC.~
4 lines of SPI (CLK, MISI, MISO, and CS) are occupied.~
~
On the sample, the empty pins are remain open. There are no issues for experimental level, but to use the device~
in far more stable condition, pull-up resistors can be applied.~

-- In this sample, both ceramic disk type and surface-mount chip type ceramic capacitors are used.~
-- The pin-headers are divided into 2 sets of 2x5 size.~
-- The data sheet of analog-digital converter is available at Mirochip Technology  Inc's [[website:http://www.microchip.com/wwwproducts/Devices.aspx?dDocName=en010533]].~
