- **drc_missing_footprints_count:** 0

- **manual_routing_checklist:** Priority manual routing checklist
1) Net grouping and order
- Route nets in this priority order: (1) GND, (2) 3V3, (3) 5V_PROT & USB_VBUS_IN, (4) I2C (SDA, SCL), (5) UART (UART_TX, UART_RX), (6) LED1_CTRL & LED2_CTRL and other GPIOs.
- Keep each functional group physically clustered:
- USB-C port & protection (J1, U1, U2, R3, R4, R5)
- 5V_PROT regulator input path (U2 OUT to U3 VIN, C1, C2)
- 3V3 regulator output island (U3, C7, C8, TP2, R7, C9, C10)
- ESP32 module & digital I/O (U4, J2, TP1, LED1, LED2, R8, R9)
- I2C sensor pod (U5, R1, R2, C10).
- Keep SDA and SCL parallel and similar length from U4 to U5; likewise keep UART_TX and UART_RX roughly parallel between U4 and J2.
2) Layer usage
- Use a 4-layer discipline consistent with the project intent:
- L1 (Top): primary signal and short power stubs.
- L2: solid GND reference plane; avoid cuts, no long signal traces.
- L3: short, fat 5V_PROT and local 3V3 distribution; avoid weaving other signals in this plane.
- L4 (Bottom): secondary signal escape and short jumpers only when top is congested.
- When a signal must change layers, always via into L1/L4, not into the planes directly except for power stitching vias.
3) Trace widths by net type
- Power nets:
- USB_VBUS_IN and 5V_PROT: >= 0.50 mm on L1/L4, 0.60–0.80 mm on L3 when used as a spine.
- 3V3 main rail from U3 to U4 and loads: >= 0.40 mm.
- Signals:
- General GPIO, LED1_CTRL, LED2_CTRL, EN: 0.20–0.25 mm.
- I2C (SDA, SCL) and UART (UART_TX, UART_RX): 0.20–0.25 mm, matched width within each bus.
- Local stubs into small 0603 passives may neck down briefly to 0.18 mm if needed for pad entry.
4) Via rules
- Standard signal via: finished drill ~0.30 mm, pad ~0.60 mm; use for SDA, SCL, UART, GPIO, LED nets.
- Power via: use at least one via pair (or via array) for each transition of USB_VBUS_IN, 5V_PROT, and 3V3 between planes; where space allows, double up vias near U3, U4 supply pins, and test points TP1/TP2.
- Keep vias out of the keepout/antenna zone of the ESP32 module and away from USB-C pads and differential pairs.
5) Clearance practices
- Global minimum copper clearance: >= 0.20 mm between unrelated nets.
- Around USB_VBUS_IN and 5V_PROT:
- Maintain >= 0.25 mm clearance to signals and other copper when possible.
- Around the ESP32 and RF keepout:
- Avoid routing any non-essential traces under the module antenna area; keep at least 1.0 mm away from the antenna outline.
- Keep parallel high-level signals (UART, I2C) at least 0.30–0.50 mm away from unrelated fast edges or LED current paths to reduce coupling.
6) Airwire resolution workflow
- For each airwire in the DRC list:
- Confirm the net name (USB_VBUS_IN, 5V_PROT, 3V3, SDA, SCL, UART_TX, UART_RX, LED1_CTRL, LED2_CTRL, GND, etc.).
- Route from source pin to destination along the priority and layer rules above.
- Prefer straight or gently bending (45°) segments; avoid acute angles and jogs.
- If a via is required, place it near the pad, not mid-span.
- After each batch of routed nets, re-run DRC and verify the airwire count is decreasing; continue until all are cleared.
7) Final verification
- Ensure every power pin of U3, U4, and U5 has a short, direct connection to its local decoupling capacitor and then to the plane.
- Confirm no stubs or islands of copper remain on GND or 3V3/5V_PROT.
- Run full DRC and verify: 0 airwires, no clearance violations, and all vias/traces on valid layers.
