AngleCircle — czterowarstwowa płytka PCB do lokalizacji dźwięku

AngleCircle to projekt okrągłej, czterowarstwowej płytki PCB, opracowywanej w KiCadzie do systemu lokalizacji kierunku źródła dźwięku. System wykorzystuje ESP32-S3 i cztery cyfrowe mikrofony MEMS I²S, rozmieszczone wokół płytki.

Celem projektu jest integracja elektroniki, zasilania i czujników w jednym module oraz ograniczenie problemów z połączeniami przewodowymi, które występowały na etapie prototypowania.

Założenia projektowe

  • Okrągła geometria płytki dostosowana do układu czterech mikrofonów.
  • Cztery warstwy miedzi umożliwiające rozdzielenie sygnałów, zasilania oraz pól masy.
  • Projektowanie ciągłych ścieżek prądu powrotnego i odpowiedniego połączenia obszarów GND za pomocą przelotek.
  • Prowadzenie linii I²S (BCLK, WS/LRCLK i DATA) z uwzględnieniem integralności sygnałów i geometrii połączeń.
  • Integracja z mikrokontrolerem ESP32-S3 oraz elementami elektroniki pomocniczej.
  • Przygotowanie schematu i layoutu PCB w KiCadzie.

Architektura mikrofonów

Cztery mikrofony tworzą dwie pary pomiarowe, używane do estymacji opóźnienia nadejścia dźwięku (TDOA):

         DÓŁ

 I²S1: MIC 1 + MIC 4
 I²S0: MIC 2 + MIC 3

Przyjęta w firmware koncepcja pomiaru łączy mikrofony w dwie przekątne. Każda przekątna jest obsługiwana przez oddzielny kontroler I²S, aby zapewnić synchronizację wewnątrz pary pomiarowej.

Questions

How big is the Kolko 4layer PCB?

It measures 50 × 50 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Kolko 4layer use?

85 parts, built around the ESP32-S3-WROOM-1-N8, 74HC4067PW-Q100J, AMS1117-3.3 and USBLC6-2SC6. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Kolko 4layer KiCad files?

From the Igur7/AngleCircle repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is PCB/kolko_4layer.kicad_pcb and its schematic PCB/kolko_4layer.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Kolko 4layer design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask Igur7 before reusing the design.
