Work done
  • Renamed the project to Portable Pulse Sensor and updated the description.
  • Created and populated Project Specification and Design Notes.
  • Added the core schematic parts: U1, IC1, U2, U3, J1, J2, J3, plus pull-ups, CC resistors, charge-program resistor, and decoupling/bulk capacitors.
  • Wired the main nets already in place: USB_5V, VBAT, 3V3, I2C_SDA, I2C_SCL, USB_CC1, USB_CC2, UART_TX, UART_RX, ESP_BOOT, ESP_EN, MAX_INT, and GND.
  • Verified exact schematic pin names and captured key datasheet constraints, including the ESP32 antenna keepout note and TP4056/AMS1117 application guidance.
Success criteria review
  • ❌ The PCB is not yet placed or constrained to 80 mm x 50 mm.
  • ❌ The ESP32 antenna edge placement and no-copper keepout are not yet implemented in layout.
  • ❌ The MAX30102 front-edge placement is not yet implemented in layout.
  • ❌ The schematic is only partially correct: the IC1 still has an unresolved 1.8 V VDD requirement versus the requested rail set, and a few placeholder capacitors remain disconnected.
  • ❌ DRC, airwire verification, and Gerber export have not been completed.
Next steps I was blocked from continuing execution in this session before I could finish the schematic cleanup and all PCB work. The next pass should:
  • resolve the IC1 supply implementation,
  • clean up unused placeholder parts or repurpose them correctly,
  • set the 2-layer 80 mm x 50 mm layout rules,
  • place U1 at the board edge with antenna keepout,
  • place IC1 at the front edge,
  • route with 1.0 mm power traces and bottom GND fill,
  • run DRC/airwire checks, then export Gerbers.

Fixed Requirements
  • Board size: 80 mm x 50 mm.
  • Stackup: 2-layer.
  • ESP32 centered with antenna aligned to the board edge and no copper under the antenna keepout.
  • MAX30102 placed at the front edge for finger placement.
  • I2C uses GPIO21 and GPIO22 with 4.7k pull-ups to 3.3 V.
  • Li-ion charging via TP4056.
  • 3.3 V regulation via AMS1117-3.3.
  • Power traces target 1.0 mm width.
  • Full bottom-layer ground fill.
  • Final layout must have no airwires and pass DRC before Gerber export.
