Temperature and Humidity Sensor Node Design
Make me a temperature and humidity sensor node with Wifi and Bluetooth, powered by USB-C (5V) for consumer use.
It should be a low-power environmental node with a digital T/RH sensor, ultra-low-power MCU with Wi-Fi + Bluetooth (dual-radio) — 2.4 GHz 802.11 b/g/n plus BLE 5.x powered by USB-C (5 V) — USB-C receptacle 5 V default; include reverse/OVP/UVLO/OCP protection and plan for 0.5–3 A sources.

I’ll create your low‑power USB‑C Wi‑Fi + BLE temperature/humidity sensor node with robust protections.
Planned steps:
- Add core blocks: dual‑radio MCU (Wi‑Fi b/g/n + BLE 5.x), digital I2C T/RH sensor, USB‑C receptacle (sink), low‑Iq 5V→3.3V buck, protection IC (reverse/OVP/UVLO/OCP), TVS/EMI parts, programmer header, user LED/button.
- Power/protection: CC resistors for USB‑C sink; input filter + TVS; eFuse‑class protection ahead of buck; sensor/LED power gating for sub‑5 µA sleep; full decoupling per datasheets.
- Nets: I2C with pull‑ups, interrupts, UART/programming; test points for 5 V/3.3 V/GND.
- Layout: antenna keepout for 2.4 GHz; isolate sensor from heat; low‑cap USB data‑line ESD (<1 pF per line); size connector/power traces for up to 3 A.
- Reviews: ERC/DRC, availability, footprints; finalize BOM.
