Bauanleitung
3-5 hoursIntermediate
1
Procurement & Preparation
- Inspect and organize all BOM components including ESP32-C3-WROOM-02-N4, SSD1306 OLED display, Omron D2FC-F-7N microswitch, DRV2605L haptic driver with LRA motor, and power management ICs (MCP73831, DW01A, RT9013).
- Prepare the custom PCB layout, verify schematic nets for I2C (SDA/SCL sharing between display and haptic driver), and check power distribution traces.
2
Hardware Assembly & Wiring
- Solder the power management circuit onto the PCB, including the MCP73831 charger, DW01A protection IC, RT9013 3.3V LDO, USB-C receptacle, and associated passive components.
- Mount and solder the Espressif ESP32-C3-WROOM-02-N4 module onto the main PCB, ensuring correct pin alignment for GPIO, I2C, and power inputs.
- Wire the Omron D2FC-F-7N microswitch to the MCU using GPIO_CLICK and GND signals, enabling mechanical input with tactile feedback.
- Connect the 0.96-inch OLED display SSD1306 and DRV2605L haptic driver to the MCU via the shared I2C interface (SDA, SCL, 3.3V, GND).
3
Firmware Setup
- Connect the USB-C port of the assembled click counter to a development PC and initialize the ESP32-C3 development environment using Arduino IDE or ESP-IDF.
- Install required software libraries including Adafruit_SSD1306, Adafruit_GFX, and Adafruit_DRV2605 for display rendering and haptic feedback control.
- Compile and flash the firmware binary that polls the Omron microswitch on GPIO_CLICK, updates the OLED click count, triggers LRA haptic waveforms via DRV2605L, and manages Wi-Fi/Bluetooth dashboard sync.
4
Testing & Calibration
- Perform a hardware power-on test by plugging in a 3.7V LiPo battery and USB-C charger, verifying that the MCP73831 indicates charging state and the RT9013 outputs stable 3.3V power.
- Test mechanical click response by pressing the Omron microswitch rapidly, ensuring zero debounce errors and immediate visual feedback on the SSD1306 OLED display.
- Calibrate the DRV2605L haptic waveforms for the LRA motor to ensure distinct, crisp tactile feedback on standard clicks and success milestones.
- Verify wireless connectivity by connecting the ESP32-C3 to a local Wi-Fi network and confirming real-time click data transmission to the target gamified tracking dashboard.
