Hi
Where to buy: Exhalation solenoid valve of PB560?

Hello,

Have you looked at the part number?

Not sure but here , I think

95% of the parts are obsolete.

Hi,
What is PB560’s LCD Display?

An other open source project for an Open Ventilator:

Obsolete.
Someone was making a pcb with a fpga but i don’t know if he finished it.

The LCD display is from Hitachi. The display controller PCB is from Clairitech and can be purchased still from them, though expensive. The FPGA replacement PCB is almost done.

For programming cy7c67300, we need USB_Firmware_V3.1.bin file as per details shared by Medtronics. The file is not in the shared folders. Any inputs for default file which can be used for programming. Below are some details :

I don’t know if everyone has seen it but here is a video of a prototype ventilator being testing. This is some impressive work by the OpenVentilator Project!

Hello Ferdy and everyone. Thank you for this gigantic effort everyone is doing to make this possible.

I am a mexican manager form a company that has also built a prototype for the ventilator.

One of our main challenges is to escalate the production with the high cost of the display assembly and we found this amazing forum by looking for alternatives. We found the pcb alternative for the driver but no code for the FPGA.

How can we help? We have the CAD files for the original turbine assembly, the PCB for the internal battery and we can share what we have and are willing completely to help.

Let us know if we can find something for the FPGA and what can we give to help this project, thank you very much everyone! :slight_smile:

Yes, someone in the group is working on it. The FPGA board has already been printed and they are tuning the firmware.

Me alegro mucho!

Sure, that sounds nice. The guy working on the FPGA posts his updates on our Slack channel, I think he did not commit yet the code to the repository. If you send me a PM with your e-mail account, I can add you to Slack so that you can get in touch with him.

Ferdy Thank you very much, for some reason I am not able to send you a PM, should I write my email here or is there another way for me to contact you? Thank you very much again!

I’m the FPGA guy you are talking about. I’ll push the code as soon as I’ll have it verified with the real hardware.
