Schematic Component Placement Guide


Updated to: "ESP32-C6 Advanced 4-Layer Motor Control Platform"
Work done
  • Updated the project description with a detailed overview (#ESP32C6 #MotorControl #PowerManagement #BLDC #Brushed).
Tasks remaining
  • Define system architecture (Mermaid diagram of functional blocks)
  • Add all major ICs and ground portal (polyfuse, TVS, LM74610, LM2596, AP2112K, DRV8313 ×2, VNH7070BAS ×2)
  • Add connectors (buck bypass header, MotorFlex header, test pads)
  • Add supporting passives (decoupling, snubbers, bootstrap diodes, shunts, I²C pull-ups/series resistors)
  • Complete all net wiring in the schematic
  • Run ERC and resolve warnings
  • Verify footprints and stackup
  • Configure PCB dimensions, layers, and plane assignments
  • Set net classes and trace widths
  • Place components by functional block
  • Route all nets and refine critical routes
  • Run DRC and clear violations
Success criteria: Not yet met—all schematic blocks, PCB placement, routing, and ERC/DRC checks remain to be completed.
Next step: Generate and save the system-architecture Mermaid diagram showing the VBAT path, Buck→LDO, Dual BLDC, Dual Brushed, I²C/MotorFlex, Test Pads, and MCU/Core blocks, then update the “System Architecture” property.
