#Smart Bench Power Supply

That is a ginormous IC, what's the reason for choosing it?
it's actually pretty small
board is just 10cm x 10cm
i needed it for voice rec and sensor + memory stuff, it's an stm32h747bit6
the original plan was adding a camera too
and i still plan on using it later
that's why i chose it in the first place
for image recognition
i compared it to the size of the typeC^^
it is fairly huge
but yeah, makes sense
Oh ok, in that case yeah, it is big XD
i mean, as in, it is much bigger than the MCUs that i usually work with
I just wanted to make something myself
Perfect!
Progress
looking sick! how do you round the edges of your board ?
I'm using the angle draw function
Np
how many of the pins are you using on that? That's a dizzying amount of QFP pins
The big center thing?
208
Waveform generator and memory added
only audio is left
then i have to connect everything to the stm32
luckily bottom laayer is empty
I´m also playing around with that big µC´s it´s not always simple to get so many traces to one point 😅
yeah lol
What are the technical specifications of this? As in what all components have been used to build this PCB? Just a brief overview of the project basically with how it's done
didn't work on this for a long time, but i can try to find the comp list
when i am home i can send the kicad project too
Ohh that would be great!
What are the features of this PCB other than that wifi controlled?
buck boost regs controllable via i2c
and more
don't remember everything
those 2 buck boost can output some amps (with configurable limiters)
and it has a signal generator (sine, triangle and square)
and it has ucpd
ok, we have a problem, the buck boost is not available anymore, you will have to find another one
@sand zephyr here are all the parts from digikey
just import the file to a cart
Great project btw!
Looking forward to collaborate on this one!
i don't need anymore, but it's not a problem to help for it if you want it
thx
why such a big uC only to use not even 1/10th the pins?
i am using almost all pins btw
the pcb was not done
it was barely started
Honestly with that many pins, external memory and an LCD I'd just move to an FPGA and have the esp32 drive it?
Although if you want a USB 2.0 device then you'd have a limited selection of esp32 options
And I imagine you might not want to write hdl
The only problem i can think of with voice is something like hearing 14 as 40 and sizzling whatever is connected
Or 19 as 90
fpgas are way more expensive
CPLDs are cheap
But it won't reduce the pins needed by much
Did it work
The pcb wasn't even completed
Dang man what resources do you recommend to make boards of this caliber
I’m used to working with low power pcbs but I don’t see much resources on high power design
i look at schematics and at some good videos on YT + you can ask on the embedded discord server
rn i am working on a pcb with stm32mp257 IC with PCIe
is STM32MP2 hard to work with?
which package of it are you using?
The peripherals are either going to have Linux drivers (still being upstreamed) or live on the realtime M33 core
i will mostly use linux
tfbga436
What are the dimensions of that one? 14x14mm?
