Fear&Greed Index Tracker -> Devlog #5
Running into problems
I’ve spent most of the devlog just fixing schematic issues and adding a component that doesnt have a footprint and etc.


What i did:

  • I improved my devlog standard as you can see
  • Fixed the schematic with pinouts and improved with comments for when i build it irl
  • Added a fuel gauge component MAX17048
  • Added the symbol for the MAX17048 in KiCAD
  • Learned how to use the MAX17048 in my project
  • Added MAX17048 in the OnShape assembly
  • Added a bulk capacitor on ESP32 Vcc/GND

Problems:

  • I had major issues with finding and creating a fuel gauge component into my schematic and project
  • Had issues finding a .step file for MAX17048

Current state:

  • Almost finished the final schematic
  • Finalizing the final list of components
  • Finished the assembly in OnShape
  • Started planning the code structure

Next step:

  • Finish the schematic
  • Run a ERC check
  • Find errors
  • Double check 3D model and assembly
  • Test available parts at home
