Still, this process was necessary to eliminate all the flaws of my design, iteration by iteration, first and foremost an issue referred to as decoupling [http://www.thebox.myzen.co.uk/Tutorial/De-coupling.html] [http://www.lothar-miller.de/s9y/categories/14-Entkopplung]. This is of particular importance in my application as the ESP module is quite sensitive to noise and one of the worst components one can think of in terms of noise are motors. Here we have them combined on a tiny space of 50x50mm. | |||

It cost me some time and some burnt-out components but I was glad to have figured it all out before the PCB went into production, and when it finally did, all I could do was wait…. I purchased my first PCB ever at [https://aisler.net aisler.net]. Refreshing the order history every second at some point revealed the smart test result, which made me even more excited. | It cost me some time and some burnt-out components but I was glad to have figured it all out before the PCB went into production, and when it finally did, all I could do was wait….
