today was a productive day, but I may have underestimated my previous goals. I basicly started as usual with a simple layout. I am def not that great at PCB layouts but I thought it looked OK, then I realized itwasnt very good for routing and once I started routing it was a mess. So then what I did was optimize the entire layout to make it super easy to route. at the end it was looking so fire and I thought this was the one so I started adding all the silkscreen stuff and logos and names. then I remembered that FSR signals are going to be analog and they need to be super precise. Turns out buck boost converters have crazy switching field which can mess with the FSR signals. My RC filters were also pretty away from the teensy pins. so I decided to fix that with V3. I first switched around the SD card and power management circuits so that the buck boost was as far away from mt FSRs as possible. then I moved up my RC filters (low pass). I think im pretty much finished the layout, there could be some minor neatness tweaks. there is also some dead space I need to fill. I do have to redo the silk screen though and route everything tommorow. so tommorow that’s the goal as well as maybe starting the BOM? (the pic in 3D is V4)
