Updated to: "3.3V Li-ion MagTek Stripe Reader Interface with ATtiny85, AT24C256, and MCP1700 (Edge-mount Pads, 25x12.5 mm, GND Pour, ERC/DRC OK)"
No changes were applied due to execution being halted.
Work not done (all tasks remain):
  • Update the project description to reflect edge-mounted BAT+/VBAT and BAT–/GND pads, board size, and GND pour
  • Define and save the updated system architecture diagram
  • Remove the 18650 holder from the schematic
  • Add BAT+ and BAT– generic THT pad symbols and wire them to VBAT and GND
  • Remove any 18650 footprint from the PCB layout
  • Place two edge-mounted THT pads (1.2 mm drill, 2.4 mm pad) on the board edge
  • Add “+” and “–” silkscreen markings by each pad
  • Verify board outline remains 25.0 × 12.5 mm and bottom GND pour
  • Configure design rules (0.2 mm trace/clearance, 0.4 mm power, 0.3/0.6 mm via)
  • Run ERC and DRC with no violations
Success criteria not met:
  • Schematic still includes the old battery holder and lacks the BAT+/BAT– pads
  • PCB layout unchanged from its original state
Next step: resume execution by updating the project description (step 1.1) and proceed through the implementation plan once credit is restored.

Sure! Let's take a closer look at your project to see where we can make progress.
Project Overview:
Your project involves interfacing a MagTek Stripe Reader with an ATtiny85 microcontroller, using an AT24C256 EEPROM for data storage, and a MCP1700 LDO regulator for power management. The system is powered by a 3.3V Li-ion battery. Here's a brief overview of the components involved:
  • Microcontroller: ATtiny85
  • EEPROM: AT24C256
  • Voltage Regulator: MCP1700
  • 6-pin Connector for MagStripe: J3
  • Battery Connector: J2
  • Power Indicator LED: D1
  • Bulk Capacitor: C1
Key Connections:
Let's ensure all essential components are correctly connected, following your layout:
Power Supply:
  • Battery to MCP1700:
    • Connect J2:2 to C1:1 (GND)
    • Connect J2:1 to U1:3 (VI)
    • Connect C1:2 to U1:3 (VI)
  • MCP1700 Output:
    • Connect U1:2 (VO) to Rail:1 (3.3V)
Microcontroller & EEPROM:
  • ATtiny85 Power:
    • Connect Rail:1 (3.3V) to U2:8 (VCC)
    • Connect GND:GND to U2:4 (GND)
  • I2C Bus Connections:
    • Connect U3:5 (SDA) to U2:2 (XTAL1/PB3)
    • Connect U3:6 (SCL) to U2:3 (XTAL2/PB4)
    • Install pull-up resistors: Connect R2:P1 to Rail:1 (3.3V), similarly for R3:P1
Additional Connections:
  • LED Indicator:
    • Connect R1:P1 to U1:2 (VO)
    • Connect R1:P2 to D1:A
    • Connect D1:K to GND:GND
If you're ready with this, do you want to double-check any connections, or is there a specific section you'd like to work on next?
