Arduino Hat Design Inquiry
Worked for 19 sec
I’ll build this as a fully integrated Arduino Uno shield: select ICs/connectors, size the 28 V→5 V power path, wire the schematic per datasheets, then run checks and create the required documentation.
Worked for 4 mins 2 sec
Part selection is underway. I found a PN532 RFID IC and a 5 V relay with verified 120 VAC-capable contacts; the wide-input buck IC search needs a library fallback because the first pass only found module-style entries.
Worked for 4 mins 32 sec
Main ICs are added. I’m now adding the required passives and will wire power, SPI level shifting, microSD, relay driver, and safe relay contact terminals.
Worked for 6 mins 32 sec
I started the fully integrated Arduino Uno shield schematic and renamed the project to Arduino RFID SD Relay Shield.
Completed:
- Added PN532 RFID IC, microSD socket, relay, relay driver, flyback diode, MP1584 buck, 3.3 V LDO, SPI level shifter, terminal blocks, Arduino header placeholders, and support passives.
- Wired the initial 28 V input, 5 V rail, 3.3 V rail, SPI level-shift path, relay driver, and relay contacts.
- Created:
Important: the schematic is not layout-ready yet. Review still reports unresolved floating pins, mainly because the MP1584 buck support network and PN532 crystal/antenna/matching/reset circuitry need to be completed from the datasheets before moving to PCB layout.
