MuHack SAO 10th anniversary

For the 10th anniversary of the MuHack hackerspace, I made a little SAO that can also be pinned to your shirt or backpack, working off a button battery.

Features

  • Two configurations: SAO and pin
  • Two LEDs mounted on a transparent part of the PCB
  • I²C interface for connecting a small SPI flash memory
  • Gold-plated for a neat design
  • Clasp butterfly pin

Getting Started

This PCB is designed to be used in two different configurations: as a pin or as a SAO.

The pin configuration is the simplest, with only two LEDs and a switch to turn them on and off, everything powered by a CR1220 battery.

There is also a solderable footprint for a clasp butterfly pin, so you can wear it on your shirt or backpack.

BOM for PIN configuration

  • 2 × 0805 LEDs
  • 1 × CR1220 battery holder (e.g. Keystone 3002)
  • 1 × CR1220 battery
  • 1 × 0805 1 kΩ resistor
  • 1 × switch for on/off (e.g. C&K PCM12SMTR)

BOM for SAO configuration

  • 2 × 0805 10 kΩ resistors
  • 1 × SPI SOIC-8 flash memory (e.g. Winbond W25Q32JVSSIM)
  • (Optional) Everything listed in the PIN configuration BOM except the battery and holder
Do not use the SAO configuration with the battery inserted, as it may damage the circuit or the connected badge!
