As part of a summer project when I was learning about circuits and digital electronics, I worked on designing an LDO (low-dropout regulator) in Altium Designer.
- Calculations + map-out of necessary components (ICs, resistors, capacitors, diodes, connectors, headers) to create a dropout voltage of 3.3V ✅
- Circuit schematic ✅
- Component sourcing from DigiKey ✅
- Component footprint design based on datasheets (could have used DigiKey but wanted to learn) -- see below for examples ✅
- PCB footprint assembly 🟡
