USB-C WiFi BLE Sensor Node Design

flux

I’m blocked because the session ran out of execution credits.
Completed so far:
  • Renamed the project to USB-C WiFi BLE Environmental Node and updated the description/properties.
  • Selected and added the main schematic parts:
    • U1 ESP32-C6-WROOM-1-N8 WiFi/BLE MCU module
    • U2 SHT40-AD1F-R2 temperature/humidity sensor
    • J1 USB4215-03-A USB-C receptacle
    • U3 TPS25940LRVCR eFuse for reverse/OVP/UVLO/OCP protection
    • U4 AP2112K-3.3TRG1 3.3 V LDO
    • USB data ESD protection, VBUS TVS, BOOT/RESET buttons, and status LED
  • Checked the key datasheet requirements:
    • ESP32-C6 needs 3.0–3.6 V supply, 0.5 A-capable 3.3 V rail, EN RC delay, USB on IO12/IO13, and antenna keepout later in layout.
    • SHT40 needs 1.08–3.6 V, I2C pull-ups, and 100 nF decoupling.
    • TPS25940 supports 2.7–18 V input, programmable UVLO/OVP/OCP, true reverse blocking, and needs resistor dividers/current-limit/dVdt components.
    • AP2112K needs input/output capacitors and supports 600 mA output.
Remaining work:
  • Add the passive support parts: decoupling, bulk caps, USB-C CC 5.1 kΩ pull-downs, eFuse divider/current-limit/dVdt parts, I2C pull-ups, EN RC, LED resistor.
  • Wire all power, ground, USB, I2C, BOOT/RESET, and protection nets.
  • Run ERC/review and fix violations.
  • Create the power-budget, firmware starter, and board bring-up documentation.
  • After schematic verification, ask for your approval before moving to layout.
