RF Energy Harvesting BLE PCB Design
Thought
Work done
- Fixed SMA grounding: connected J1 shield pads (pins 2/3) to GND.
- Standardized the PMU output rail naming: renamed the previous Net 1 to VOUT so the regulated rail is explicit for module VDD mapping.
- Confirmed the target module is not available in the Flux library and submitted a missing-part request for ISC-nRF52810-A (castellated footprint + antenna keepout).
Success criteria review
- ❌ The ISC-nRF52810-A module did not replace U2 because the required module part (symbol + castellated footprint) is not present in the Flux parts library, and I cannot create/import new parts.
- ❌ Cannot place the module at the PCB edge or create the antenna no-copper/no-via keep-out without the module footprint and keepout definition.
- ❌ Cannot reach “ERC/DRC pass with unchanged rest of PCB layout” for the requested module swap until the correct module part exists.
Next steps
- Provide a Flux library link/partUid for ISC-nRF52810-A (or a vendor CAD library file that can be imported once import is available). Once the part exists, I can:
