BikeWatch V1

This is a small device that i want to make for my bike which will have accelerometer data and a temperature sensor possibly to track my outdoor environment while I cycle.

I hate symbols

So I had originally mounted the entire mpu6050 assembly on the pcb itself, but then I realized I don't know how to SMD solder and don't know how to route it and... Yeah. So symbol. i initially didn't know how to make a symbol properly. this is because I made it so that the symbol has the wrong numbers attached to it so that it doesn't correspond to the actual footprint. But yeah i was able to finish it after a whole 2.5 HOURS SCREW YOU KICAD. :( :( :( :( :(:( :( :( :(:( :( :(

Heh heh heh

Schematic

I designed the schematic for the project. I wanted to use a xiao RP2040 along side a possible temperature sensor. This should also include a screen to actually see what the data is and some buttons to interface with the screen. Also, battery charging circuit. Anyways here is the schematic.

I couldn't find the symbol for the MPU6050. Sadness... might have to make a new symbol and I don't know how to. Freak.

Took me a really long time to find the DATASHEET
