I'm finished right now with a power section, and I just barely started the control board layout. I'm going to try some stuff on the breadboard a bit more this time, to get a really really good handle on the noise. Also, a few professional motor controller people are helping me to work on the layout and code.

I'm sure there will be a well working controller by July! There will be improvements along the way, but the improvements will mostly be to the control section. However, I'd like to try Synchronous Rectification with a different chip from Atmel, the AT90PWM3, which has the same core as the ATMega8 and ATMega16. ya!
