MAXM86161 pinout and decoupling
Failed / blocked
The newly created nRF52832 and MAXM86161 parts were not immediately discoverable through the library index, so they could not be instantiated in the current schematic.
Consequently, support passives, connectors, GPIO allocation, full wiring, no-connect annotations, and schematic organization were not completed.
The requested ≥2 A battery connector was not available as a suitable documented library part.
Current ERC reports 226 unresolved checks, primarily floating pins. The schematic is not production-ready and should not proceed to PCB layout.
Verification evidence
BOM currently contains 11 unique real manufacturer parts / 12 instances.
Datasheets were consulted for every active IC added.
ERC confirms the partial schematic remains unwired; no claim of completion is made.The primary parts are placed, but two newly created datasheet-backed parts have not indexed yet, leaving the schematic unwired. I’m retrying those exact parts and completing the wiring before running ERC.
Created the project architecture, power budget, and a partial production-intent BOM. The schematic currently has 12 components but no wiring, so it is not ready for layout.
Open items
Add the indexed nRF52832 and MAXM86161 parts.
Add support passives, connectors, battery protection, clocks, and test points.
Wire all power and interfaces; resolve 212 ERC findings.
Complete schematic verification, PCB placement, RF/ECG isolation, routing, and DRC.
Execution stopped because the account has no available ACUs.
Wirelessly connects nets on schematic. Used to organize schematics and separate functional blocks. To wirelessly connect net portals, give them same designator. #portal
