Worked On Github Page

This wasn't a straight 1.5 hours working on the page but something that happened overtime.

I used the following github as a guide and basis of what I should put on my github: https://github.com/Acidicts/Pico-Key
This project was also a tier 3 project so it should have everything I need.

After the recent review of my project I added screenshots of my kicad schematic and pcb.

Below is what my github repository looks like.

Finished Routing the PCB

This was my first time routing a pcb and I used a lot more of the second layer than I initially expected but it was also really fun watching everything coming together. I had to redo my first iteration since I used the wrong footprint for the pins but I was able to fix it afterwards.

Recreated DevBoard Schematic

I started to created the actual pcb but the sheer amount of components made it very expensive, something I wasn't looking for as this was supposed to be a simple microcontroller for short term projects.
After revisiting the guide I decided to remove the extra storage and other unnecessary parts that I wouldn't need and created a much cheaper schematic.

Finished assigning the Footprint

I finished assigning all of the footprints, this was my first time so I took a lot longer than I would have liked. I wasn't sure if similar parts could share the same footprints but I was able to figure it out.

Finished Schematics for Devboard

This is actually kinda of funny but I finished the schematic on Thursday but I forgot to write the journal entry.

Below is the schematic for my devboard, there were a lot of different components that I need to make sure I used. I haven't started working on the pcb design yet but I want to finish it by the end of this weekend.

Started with inital Devboard

I first did a lot of research to find the minimum requirements for a esp32. I know that there is a tutorial for a raspberry pi version but an esp32 has different requirements. I found the schematic checklist for an esp32: https://docs.espressif.com/projects/esp-hardware-design-guidelines/en/latest/esp32s3/schematic-checklist.html#overview

It is a bit out of date and missing a couple ports but it's a good start for what I am working on.

I started creating the pcb in the schematic editor. Screenshot below.
