Re: Jaguar Failure

Luminary Micro is working with Mike to understand the issue he is seeing.

The initial speculation is that the inrush current due to the charging of the big bus capacitor in each Jaguar is causing the bench power supply to glitch causing a power on issue with the microcontroller. If this is indeed the case, it is very unlikely to affect battery operated systems.

More data will be generated when Mike has an opportunity to conduct further experiments in the team's shop. I'll respond back to the forum once I learn more.

By the way, I just updated the Jaguar microsite with the special Jaguar reorder link for FRC teams (through Digi-Key), a link to our technical support page, and a link to Luminary Micro's main webpage.

Regards,
Scott
