Power net portal is a special schematic object used to define a power or ground net. Power ports allow you to conveniently indicate a power net at any location in the design. Power nets of the same designator automatically connect throughout your design #portal #power
A generic fixed inductor for rapid developing circuit topology. *You can now change the footprint and 3D model at the top level anytime you want. This is the power of #generics
Let's clarify a few design details so we can define the overall architecture:
WiFi Module Options:
Would you prefer using an integrated WiFi SoC (such as an ESP series module, e.g. ESP8266 or ESP32) or adding a dedicated WiFi module on the board that interfaces with the Pico 2?
OLED Interface:
Should the 128×64 OLED display use an I²C or SPI interface?
Switch Functionality and Placement:
How do you envision the 4 switches being used (e.g., for navigation, user input, etc.), and do you have preferences for placement or debouncing/circuit conditioning (i.e., should we include pull-ups or other circuitry)?
Power Requirements:
Do you have any special power supply needs for the WiFi, OLED, and switches (for instance, voltage levels, decoupling needs, etc.)?
Integration with Pico 2:
Do you want the Pico 2 to be the main controller handling WiFi, display, and switch inputs, or do you envision a separate co-processor for the WiFi functions?
Answering these questions will help decide on the functional blocks and component choices for your PCB design. Let me know your preferences, and we'll outline the architecture accordingly.
