- Objective: Ensure all components receive the correct operating voltage.
- Steps:
- Verify the output of V1 (Voltage Source) is stable at 5V.
- Measure the output voltage of U2 (L7805CV) and U3 (LM7805CT/NOPB) to ensure they are providing a regulated 5V output.
- Check that the ESP32 DEVKIT V1 (U1) receives 3.3V at its 3V3 pin and 5V at its VIN pin, confirming voltage regulation from 5V to 3.3V onboard is functional.
Step 2: Basic Connectivity Check- Objective: Confirm that all components are correctly soldered and that there are no short circuits.
- Steps:
- Perform a continuity test on all GND connections to ensure they are common and have no breaks.
- Use a multimeter to check for unintended connections between VCC and GND across the project to identify any potential short circuits.
Step 3: Component-Specific Verification-
Objective: Test the functionality of individual components.
-
Sub-Objective 1: ESP32 DEV KIT V1 (U1)
- Upload a simple blink sketch to verify basic programming and GPIO functionality.
- Test serial communication over USB to ensure the microcontroller can send/receive data.
-
Sub-Objective 2: HC-SR04 Ultrasonic Sensors (US1 & US2)
- Connect US1 and US2 to U1 as per the project nets and upload a distance measurement sketch.
- Verify that both sensors are emitting pulses and measuring distances accurately by observing serial output.
-
Sub-Objective 3: Power Connectors (J1, J2, J3, J4, J5, J6)
- Ensure that each power connector properly routes power to its designated net without voltage drops.
Step 4: Integration and Full System Test- Objective: Confirm that the system functions as intended when operating together.
- Steps:
- With the ESP32 programmed for a specific application involving HC-SR04 sensors (e.g., distance measurement, object detection, etc.), verify the system performs as expected in a real-world scenario.
- Monitor the serial output for any errors or unexpected behavior, adjusting the code or hardware setup as necessary.
