The folders at this repo are organized as follows:
AT Tiny Supervisor folder contains the AT Tiny 85 code to supervise the charging of a 3 series or 4 series wired battery pack.
Eagle_Board_Files folder contains two folders: One for the Max1873 board and one for the MP26123_4 board. They contain the Eagle layout and schematic, parts list, and test procedure.
Dell_D630_Portable_Pi_KVM folder contains the keyboard matrix and Teensy 3.2 Arduino code for controlling the keyboard, touchpad, and video converter card.
My_Ugly_C_Code folder contains the Pi C code that reads the battery status registers over the SMBus.
USB_SMBUS_CP2112 folder contains the Eagle board files to build a USB to SM Bus bridge for reading the battery status registers. See https://github.com/thedalles77/cp2112_demo for the code to display the battery status registers.
Load_Switch_NCP_45760 folder contains the Eagle board files to build a load switch using the On Semiconductor NCP45760 chip.
