USB-C Sensor Node


Implemented the schematic for the USB-C powered Wi‑Fi/BLE temperature/humidity node. It uses a SiWG917 Wi‑Fi/BLE 5.4 module, SHT41 T/RH sensor, USB-C sink input, TPS25940 true reverse-blocking eFuse with OVP/UVLO/OCP/soft-start, MP28301 3.3 V buck regulator, ESD protection, reset/ISP/SWD debug, I2C pull-ups, and status LED.
Created project files:
Open items:
  • PCB layout/routing is not done yet, so airwire DRC errors are expected.
  • Generic passives still need final manufacturer MPNs before manufacturing export.
  • Layout must enforce the SiWG917 antenna keepout and thermal isolation around the SHT41.
Suggested next steps:
  1. Set board size/stackup and move into PCB placement.
  2. Place U1 at the board edge with antenna keepout and U4 away from heat sources.
  3. Route power, buck, I2C, SWD/UART, and USB-C protection paths.
  4. Assign final passive MPNs and run full DRC/manufacturing checks.
The schematic is complete with 46 components and 31 nets: SiWG917 Wi‑Fi/BLE, SHT41 sensor, protected USB‑C input, TPS25940 reverse-blocking eFuse, MP28301 3.3 V buck, ESD protection, controls, and debug access. Documentation for requirements, firmware, bring-up, and regulatory planning was also created.
Remaining work:
  • PCB outline, stackup, placement, and routing
  • SiWG917 antenna keepout and SHT41 thermal isolation
  • Final passive MPN assignment
  • PCB DRC and manufacturing validation
  • Review the attached text and apply any requested changes
