Replace the 3-pos MaiXu MX126-5.0 terminal block footprint on the power
input connector with a 3-pos JST EH vertical header, matching the actual
battery harness. Namespace the RHL0020A footprint reference as
Project:RHL0020A so it resolves through the project-local Project.pretty
library rather than the previous unqualified bare name.
Constraint: RHL0020A footprint lives in the project-local library
Confidence: high
Scope-risk: narrow
Add complete 5V-to-12V boost converter reference design around U2
(TPS61088QRHLRQ1) matching U1's circuit: input caps, compensation
network, soft-start cap, inductor, bootstrap cap, output caps, and
feedback voltage divider. Fix SW/BOOT pin types from power_in to
passive to resolve ERC errors. Update sym-lib-table to point to the
Q1 variant symbol library.
Constraint: Pin types must match U1's passive designation for SW/BST
Rejected: Leaving SW/BOOT as power_in | causes ERC "not driven" errors
Confidence: medium
Scope-risk: moderate
Not-tested: full ERC pass with both U1 and U2 present
Replace THT resistor footprints with 0805 SMD, assign 0805 caps for
small values, 1206 for 22uF bulk caps, SMD electrolytic for C3, Bourns
SRR1260 for L1, and QFN-20 for U1 TPS61088.
Remove the L7805 linear regulator (12V→5V) and its input/output caps,
replacing it with a TPS61088 boost converter circuit (5V→12V) for the
A4988 stepper driver. The ESP32 is now powered directly from the 5V
input rail. Includes integration script and project sym-lib-table for
the custom TPS61088 symbol library.
- Move regulator section labels (U1, C1, C2) to non-overlapping positions
- Hide redundant A4988 value text and R1/R2 GND value text
- Shift +3.3V, +12V, and GND power labels for better spacing
- Move C3, R1, R2 reference/value text away from nearby labels
- Add LM7805 (TO-220) with input/output caps to step 12V→5V for ESP32 VIN
- Add 10K pull-down resistors on D5/LIM_A and D4/LIM_C limit switch GPIOs
- Add 100uF electrolytic decoupling capacitor on A4988 VMOT
- Rewire A4988 ~ENABLE from GND to ESP32 D18 via MOTOR_EN net label
Remove all 60 point-to-point wires and 11 junctions. Replace with:
- 13 local power symbols (+3.3V, +12V, GND) at each power pin
- 10 net labels (STEP, DIR, LIM_A, LIM_C, MOTOR_CTRL) for signals
- 37 short stub wires connecting pins to labels/power symbols
- 4 direct wires for A4988 motor outputs to stepper connector
Electrical connectivity is preserved. No component positions changed.
