SOM Mechanical Requirements

Current 3D view of PeripheralSOM:

Current 3D view of LeaderSOM:

The problem with the current LeaderSOM is that any daughter board we make has to extend out in our direction (the side with the 7-segment display). This is because one side needs to be clear from any connectors given the USB and SD Card (next to the USB). The other two sides have connectors on them so stacking connectors like that will make harnessing harder.

BPS daughterboard for the LeaderSOM:

Mechanical requirements from Emech:

SD Card on the top side of the board
The USB connector and SD Card is on a different side than the other Molex connectors
Two mounting holes (M3)

New LeaderSOM Layout:

It is longer and narrower than the old LeaderSOM, but all connectors are on one side and the debugging tools are on the other side. That way a daughterboard can place the LeaderSOM in the corner of the board and extend out in any direction it wants.
