Practical PCB Design

For this course, 4 incrementally more complex boards were designed while learning best practices in PCB design from Professor Eric Bogatin at the University of Colorado Boulder. Below you can find the 4 boards and their reports.

Board 1 - 555 Timer

Board 1, simple 2 layer board. Contact Card sized.

The report for this board can be found here -> Report

Board 2 - Slammer Circuit to Measure and Characterize PCB Noise

As we can see, errors were made in the design of this board which needed external fixed

Board 3 - Golden Arduino

Here a clone of commercial Arduino was designed with a focus of improving noise performance.
