Almost Done with the Layout

With the components oriented in their city-like pattern, all that was left to do was to pave the final roads through the green adhesive base, connecting the motor driver to the 6-pin adapters.

Changes?

I decided to drop the 12V to 3.3V buck because the Pico has one internally, and I could just keep my 5V buck and feed its output into VSYS and extract 3.3V from the Pico’s +3V3 pin. I also ended up changing the orientation of some adapters because I couldn’t comprehend the fact that the PCB exists in 3 dimensions? Lastly, I greedily extended the bottom of the PCB so that both partitions could access one large +12V trace (the GPIO sockets were interfering).

What next?

All I have to do is wire up the connections to the motor driver and adapters, and we should be good to manufacture ts.
