Power Entry Stage Design


Create the initial power-entry stage for the SAR acquisition board.
Place exactly TWO components only:
  1. J1:
  • Type: 2-pin DC power input connector
  • Function: main 5V power entry
  1. C1:
  • Value: 10uF
  • Type: ceramic capacitor
  • Function: bulk input capacitor
Create these nets:
  • +5V_MAIN
  • GND
Connections:
  • J1 pin 1 → +5V_MAIN
  • J1 pin 2 → GND
  • C1 positive terminal → +5V_MAIN
  • C1 negative terminal → GND
Rules:
  • Do NOT place any additional components
  • Do NOT create PCB layout or routing
  • Keep schematic clean and readable
  • Use proper power symbols and net labels
Goal:
Establish the main 5V power input stage for the SAR acquisition system.
I've made a plan, and started work on it.

Started implementing a plan

#Goal

- Create the initial power-entry stage for the SAR acquisition board by adding exactly two components: a 2-pin DC power input connector (J1) and a 10uF ceramic bulk capacitor (C1), with nets +5V_MAIN and GND correctly connected.

#Implementation plan

1. Add the power entry connector:

1. Place a 2-pin DC power input connector designated as J1

2. Set pin 1 of J1 to serve as the +5V_MAIN connection and pin 2 as the GND connection

2. Add the input capacitor:

1. Place a 10uF ceramic capacitor designated as C1

2. Connect the positive terminal of C1 to +5V_MAIN and the negative terminal to GND

3. Connect the components:

1. Wire J1 pin 1 to the positive terminal of C1 using the +5V_MAIN net

2. Wire J1 pin 2 to the negative terminal of C1 using the GND net

4. Verify schematic integrity:

1. Confirm only the two components, J1 and C1, are present

2. Ensure nets are labeled as +5V_MAIN and GND and use proper power symbols in the schematic

#Success criteria

- Only J1 and C1 are present in the schematic

- J1 pin 1 and C1 positive are successfully and clearly connected to the +5V_MAIN net

- J1 pin 2 and C1 negative are successfully and clearly connected to the GND net

- The schematic remains clean and readable with proper graphical symbols for power nets
