Assuming this is good to review despite the PR still being marked as a draft?

Please organize your schematic better, it is very difficult to read. |

- Sorry I wasn't clear, I meant that you should put a differential low pass filter on the inputs to the INA.
nvm im trolling, yes the low pass filter should be right at the ADC pin - How did you size the fuse? What math/current draw/data has been referenced?
- Current sense resistors not sized still?
- Some of your footprint links are broken - There's a footprint from tutorial board, as well as several from other projects and some from folders in your downloads folder. These should all be in the project specific footprint library, and should be referenced with a relative filepath, rather than an absolute filepath.
Still some weird schematic stuff - ex. lipo voltage from power subsheet goes to VCC on main sheet which only connects to 12V sense in on power subsheet?

- Fix DRC
- Take a look at fig 2-3 (pg 15) of the datasheet for oscillator layout - you should copy this layout.
- center-to-center distance between the mounting holes should be some multiple of 0.5in, also rounded pcb corners please
- Connectors (screw terminal and gecko connector) should be right on the board edge
- in general you have some parts that are almost aligned but not quite? the board looks nicer if you can align components so they're all facing the same way (and so silkscreens are also all in one direction)
- How did you calculate the spacing for the via fence on the oscillator?

- totally missed this, please revert your changes to both RA and charging on the pad, and also tidy up the symbols/footprints (delete stuff you arent using - ex. don't need the L and M SOT-23-THIN footprints)
- Is there a reason you have CAN TX and RX on non-adjacent pins?
- Lots of places where you have components really smushed together - this wont be very fun to solder. You have lots of space in other places, maybe there's a way to take advantage of that?
- Why run the CAN traces through two vias each?
- There's some silkscreens that will get covered by components - L1, U4, and a few others.
- we cant have parts with thermal pads on both sides? currently we reflow one side, and then we try to reflow the other and then the first side melts and falls off which isnt great
- thermal pads should probably get thicccc traces so they can effectively dissipate heat. Something like 0.05in or so
Joe raises a good comment re: externall PU resistor on FLT signal lines from both fuses - I see this still isn't addressed? |
Still haven't addressed my comment wrt both e-fuses needing to be on the same side? |
Was thinking we can just use hot air and get around this. Rio is pretty confident it should be ok |

this is too thin if we're expecting anything close to 5A - 5A with 25C rise has a trace width of 1.6mm, so you should run a thicc trace to here rather than rely on zone fill. Same thing with the 12V output (and ideally we're not using a 25C temp increase)
2. ...what :crying-emoji-dies:
You should use one of the two central planes as a power plane.
3. In general traces are a bit messy (leaving pads at weird angles), silkscreens are overlapping with each other (or pads)
…fuses and Added Schottky to buck
