•I've recently completed the design of a custom ESP32-S3 Mini-based development board, tailored for flexibility, clean routing, and real-world usability. This project was fully built from scratch using Altium Designer, including schematic capture, PCB layout, and full 3D modeling.• Key Features:○ Dual USB-C ports (separate power and programming)○ 5V to 3.3V regulation using AMS1117○ Reset & Boot push-buttons○ Power and user LEDs○ Full GPIO header access○ Clean and optimized signal routing• The board was designed with modularity and ease of integration in mind, whether for prototyping, IoT applications, or embedded systems development.• PCB layout and 3D modeling were done with attention to detail, including ground planes, decoupling, and manufacturing constraints.• Swipe to see:○ Schematic overview○ 2D PCB layout○ 3D renders from Altium○ Layer stack + BOM previewAny feedback or suggestions are always welcome!
