Board Development Path
Plan: to develop the PDB in 3 parts so that they can be developed and perfected separately.
In this version, just want to focus on getting each individual component working properly. Will worry about connecting them together nicely later.

Development Milestones: Select a design from WeBench In stock IC Has at least 1 visual layout reference (pref 2) WeBench, datasheet, eval board, dev board, online reference Datasheet has layout guidelines Read through the datasheet, try to get a general overview of the features/function. Looks for any exceptions or caveats. Make sure the basic inputs, outputs are supported in the datasheet Order the stock risk components Implement the design EXACTLY as it appears in WeBench Idividual design review Group design review Verify the circuit matches WeBench Verify the circuit is consistent with the datasheet Read through the datasheet for any caveats Reformat the circuit with Logan to bring it to team schematic standards Group design review to verify no electrical changes were made during the reformatting Implement design review changes Complete the placement of the board Don’t worry about space constraints but the board should be generally tight Refer to the datasheet and layout references Refer to buck converter documentation below Group design review to make sure the board is compliant with all referances Work with Logan to implement stack up, power planes and polygons | Development Milestones: | Development Milstones: |
