Brandon’s Status Report – April 4th

What did you personally accomplish this week on the project? Give files or photos that demonstrate your progress. Prove to the reader that you put sufficient effort into the project over the course of the week (12+ hours). 

This week I finished designing our second iteration of the pcb, this time with proper breadboarding and spatial checks in order to make sure we have a correct design, one other error I forgot to mention was putting our breakout module in a different orientation in order to enable the screen to be in the correct orientation.

Is your progress on schedule or behind? If you are behind, what actions will be taken to catch up to the project schedule?

We are slightly behind as we needed to start testing the battery. It will just have to be a rush lol.

What deliverables do you hope to complete in the next week?

I hope to order the pcb and battery, and fully integrate the hardware with the firmware.

Now that you have some portions of your project built, and entering into the verification and validation phase of your project, provide a comprehensive update on what tests you have run or are planning to run. In particular, how will you analyze the anticipated measured results to verify your contribution to the project meets the engineering design requirements or the use case requirements?

One test for validation that I’ve used is completing a whole user flow using both the PCB and the breadboard circuit.

For verification there is are CDC checks that make sure that my pcb doesn’t violate or forget any important nets that need to be included in the design.
