NOTE TO REVIEWER + updates

Reviewer

Stencil even w shipping is CHEAPER than pcba and it's SO MUCH MORE FUN TO HANDSOLDER. Europacket is the cheapest shipping option as shown, add 5 dollars ontop because of exchange rate

What did I do

I have submitted many blueprint projects so the workflow of getting everything only takes 1h approx bc I have everything locked down.

  2. Rename to bom.csv add other costs and running total
  3. Github repo screenies and short descripition
  4. submit

Added silkscreen art

What I did was I added all the awesome pcb art that I wanted on here, what's unfortunate is that there's no space on the front for silkscreen art so I only put hcb logosimage

Routed the pcb twice :pf:

So yesterday I routed the pcb fully, but basically I just placed random traces which makes the decoupling caps obselete and useless.
image
So I cleared all traces and then I was like, hmmm there's one GPIO pin that's unpopulated and there's no status led :hmmmmmm:, so I added a status led, I wanted to add an rgb led but, there was only one gpio pin.

Next thing I did was redo all the wiring and acc put some effort, so that everything is wired properly.

Finished the schematic

I've finished the schematic as you can see in the screenshot. There isn't much more to talk about as I'm following the devboard tutorial. For the rest that's it.
