Retrieving pinouts for components.

Analyzing the schematic.

Accessing knowledge base.

Planning pinout retrieval.

I compiled the project pin-to-net mapping for the key components and all 32 MOSFET channels. This reflects the actual schematic connectivity (best practice: ensure every harness pin and channel is fully mapped before layout/fab).

MOSFET channels (low-side)
  • Package and mapping are uniform: G=pin1, D=pin2, S=pin3 (per part properties). Sources are on GND; drains go to header pins; gates are on MCP23017 nets.

Barrel jack and rail/power overview
  • J1 pins 1–2 are VDD1 (to U10:VCC).
  • Rails: PACKP feeds both bucks U5/U6; eFuse inputs are 6V_A_IN and 6V_B_IN. SW2 interlocks J2/J3 returns to GND.
Notes and one anomaly to review
  • U8:OUT_1 currently appears on GND in the schematic netlist. That would short the B rail output to ground, which is almost certainly unintended. Do you want me to correct that connection to the intended “6V_B_SWITCHED” net?
Would you like me to:
  • Add datasheet-backed functional pin descriptions for the major ICs (ESP32 module, MCP23017, TPS54821, TPS259824, TPS62162, BQ24618, BQ29209)?
  • Expand pin-to-net tables for remaining parts (connectors, passives not typically listed)?
