    Price: $2.34
    Link: https://www.digikey.com/en/products/
    detail/panasonic-bsg/6LF22XWA-B/5067196
  • Used before in EGR304
  • Can be put into series
  • Fairly cheap
  • In stock
  • Had a few issues using it previously
  • May not be enough/be too much voltage
  • Not a great datasheet
  • Not rechargeable
  • Table 1c: Battery Component Selection 3

    Solution Pros Cons

    Name: A23BPZ
    Price: $2.26
    Link: https://www.digikey.com/en/products/
    detail/energizer-battery-company/A23BPZ/5431480
  • Has a discharge rate (500uA)
  • In depth datasheet
  • 12 V vs 9, won’t need to make a battery pack in series potentially if we only need 12 volt
  • Probably isn’t efficient
  • Not used this kind of battery in a system like this before
  • Table 1d: Battery Component Selection 4

    Solution Pros Cons

    Name: Amazon Basics 2-Pack 9 Volt Lithium High-Performance Batteries, 10-Year Shelf Life, Long Lasting Power
    Price: $16.38
    Link: https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-Volt-Lithium-Batteries-8-Pack/dp/B082DMR8DJ
  • Great reviews
  • Lithium
  • High shelf life
  • Have to buy from Amazon
  • Unsure of capacity, but it should be enough according to similar products
  • Choice: Amazon Basics 2-Pack 9 Volt Lithium High-Performance Batteries, 10-Year Shelf Life, Long Lasting Power

    Rationale: We chose this because even though we’re unsure of the capacity, based on its competition and its cheap price, on top of being a lithium battery, we’re taking the risk that this can provide enough power to sustain our project as long as it needs to.

    Switching Voltage Regulator

    Table 2a: Voltage Regulator Component Selection 1

    Solution Pros Cons

    Name: LM2575D2T-3.3R4G
    Price: $2.39/ea
    Link: https://www.digikey.com/en/products/
    detail/onsemi/LM2575D2T-3-3R4G/1476688
  • Used in class (Through hole)
  • Relatively cheap
  • Good max input V
  • In stock
  • Surface mount not used in class
  • Might be hard to apply
  • Table 2b: Voltage Regulator Component Selection 2

    Solution Pros Cons

    Name: TLVM13620RDHR
    Price: $4.42/ea
    Link: https://www.digikey.com/en/products/
    detail/texas-instruments/TLVM13620RDHR/16585658
  • Newer than other regulators
  • Has a lot of different options
  • Higher current
  • Unused to the actual component itself (never had experience with this kind of surface mount)
  • Somewhat confusing as to how to regulate to 3.3 V
  • Table 2c: Voltage Regulator Component Selection 3

    Solution Pros Cons

    Name: TPS560430X3FDBVR
    Price: $1.07/ea
    Link: https://www.digikey.com/en/products/
    detail/texas-instruments/TPS560430X3FDBVR/9094603
  • Less current running through the regulator, may be good?
  • Lots of stock
  • Seems fairly small
  • Not used in class
  • Choice: LM2575D2T-3.3R4G

    Rationale: The class used the through-hole version of this component for a prior ICC, so it would be beneficial to be able to use that knowledge going forward as much as possible. Although it wasn’t the surface mount version, it stands to reason the same circuit should theoretically work.

    Motor Subsystem Components

    Motor Driver

    Solution Pros Cons

    Name: IFX9201SGAUMA1
    Price: $4.00000
    Link: https://www.digikey.com/en/products/

    Link: https://www.digikey.com/en/products/
    detail/rochester-electronics-llc/IRMCF311TY/12597383
  • Less Expensive
  • Has more pins to solder will be a bit difficult
  • Less Experience with the IC
  • Table 3c: Motor Driver Component Selection 3

    Solution Pros Cons

    Name: IRMCF312TR
    Price: $8.88000
    Link: https://www.digikey.com/en/products/
    detail/infineon-technologies/IRMCF312TR/1982944
  • Has a variety of interfaces for customizable settings
  • Less Experience with the IC
  • Will be more difficult to solder
  • Choice: IFX9201SGAUMA1

    Rationale: This motor driver was provided for us in class and would provide less of a learning curve, in terms of operation and coding itself. The IC itself would take less time to solder because there are less pins on the layout.
