ESC design course
Hello everyone, โš ๏ธ Peer Review Request โš ๏ธ I have been learning electronics on the side and have discovered incredible value in following the courses here. Thanks a lot, Dario, for the amazing quality of the content. The structure of the course is extremely well done. Before taking the course, I wasn't certain how to approach this kind of design, but I now feel that the steps you provide create a very solid method. I am happy to present the first version of my ESC, slightly modified and inspired by Dario's version, as well as the VESC 6.5 and 6.4 schematic (from Benjamin Vedder's page). The main differences in this version are the following: - Based on VESC 6 (and not VESC 4) - E-switch integration (using the EN_BUCK pin of the DRV) with auto ON-OFF - Features an IMU onboard - BMI160 - Uses JST SH connectors - Scaled-down power stage - designed for 25A continuous current - Board size: 83 mm x 55 mm - The board is stacked as recommended in the course: Signal - GND - GND - Signal with 1 oz copper. - Designed with Fusion 360 electronic (Sorry KiCad, I was in Eagle first). I would love to receive feedback on the e-switch section, the layout in general (as this is my first attempt at making this kind of board), and any other relevant points you see in order to make this project a success. Once everything looks good, I will place an order with JLCPCB ๐Ÿ™Œ Thank you all for the help ๐Ÿ˜

@Alan Rodriguez that is a good point that I didn't fully consider in the design, I was mostly optimizing for current and limited width variations in the current path. Thanks for the information ๐Ÿ™
