Harper’s Status Report for 2/20

During the first week I worked with the team to establish the beginning of our PCB bill of materials. I then took that and created the EAGLE footprints we need and put them together in the schematic. This required selecting which STM32 we’re to use as well as reading through the datasheet to verify which peripheral components we needed. I selected the STM32F423 for it’s compact blueprint and internal LDO. At this point we now have the JTAG connector, load cell/i2c, and voltage regulation laid out with the stm32. Once we have the interface buttons, LCD, and bluetooth setup we can do the layout and hopefully order the PCB next week.
