We're currently finalising our production v2 case design, including the SD card cover. Full sources for these will be available once they're finished.

Notes on selecting alternatives for specific parts are given below.

Display

The display is considered a part of the faceplate, but there's enough options for sourcing that it's worth a few notes here.

  • For production, we're using ER-TFT018-4 from EastRising Technology Co.
  • Adafruit's JFT-1800 panel should also work fine.
  • Most ST7735R / ST7735S displays available on AliExpress should work fine.

FFC Cable

For all current mainboard and faceplate revisions, we use an FFC connector with tin plated contacts. You should therefore try to pick an FFC cable that has tin plated contacts, to avoid corrosion.

Aside from the Samtec cable listed about, you might also consider:

  • Molex 98266-0836
  • GCT 05-15-D-0076-A-4-06-4-T

Screws

Any 14mm and 8mm countersunk M2 screws will be fine. We've used Torx head for our production units because we're big nerds, but you can often find hex and Phillips head screws easily from local suppliers.

Battery

For the battery, note that a 2-pin cell may be compatible if R1 on the mainboard PCB is populated with a 10k 0603 resitor. We recommend sourcing a suitable battery locally, as international shipping of LiPo batteries can be difficult.

Haptics

Tangara's haptic motor driver supports both LRA (closed and open-loop) and ERM haptic motors, so sourcing a compatible motor is very easy. We'll update this BOM once we've locked in our production motor, but some compatible choices are:

  • Vybronics Inc. VG0832022D (LRA)
  • Vybronics Inc. VC1034B018F (ERM)
  • Adafruit 1201 (ERM)
  • DFRobot FIT0774 (ERM)
