Work done
  • Updated project description to “ESP32-CAM WiFi Camera with RCWL-0516 Microwave Motion Detection”
  • Removed U2: HC-SR501 sensor
  • Disconnected HC-SR501 nets (VCC, GND, Data)
  • Added RCWL-0516 Module as U2 in schematic
  • Connected RCWL-0516:
    • VCC → +5V (Net 1)
    • GND → GND
    • OUT → motion signal (Net 8)
Tasks remaining
  • Place the RCWL-0516 footprint on the PCB
  • Update airwires and run DRC to verify connections
  • Route new/changed nets using Auto-Layout
Success criteria review
  • ✅ HC-SR501 removed from schematic & BOM
  • ✅ RCWL-0516 added and wired (VCC, GND, OUT to correct nets)
  • ❌ PCB layout update (footprint placement, routing, DRC) still pending
Recommended next step
Proceed with PCB-layout updates: place the RCWL-0516 footprint, refresh airwires, run DRC, then auto-route the changed nets.
