1
Procurement & Preparation
- Source and inventory all raw components including the Espressif ESP32-S3, BQ25896RTWR power management IC, TPS63020 regulator, VEML7700, SHT41, MAX30102, DS3231SNZ, PCA9685, multi-channel LED array, PIEZO-01 buzzer, and PUSH-04 rotary encoder and buttons.
- Prepare the custom printed circuit board (PCB) for the Smart Sleep Companion, applying lead-free solder paste to the SMT pads using a stainless steel stencil.
2
Hardware Assembly & Wiring
- Place surface mount ICs including the Espressif ESP32-S3, BQ25896RTWR, TPS63020, VEML7700, SHT41, MAX30102, DS3231SNZ, and PCA9685 onto their respective solder-pasted pads on the PCB using a pick-and-place machine or precision tweezers.
- Run the PCB through a reflow soldering oven adhering to the lead-free thermal profile. Inspect joints under magnification for bridging or cold solder joints.
- Hand-solder through-hole and electromechanical components including the PIEZO-01 buzzer, PUSH-04 rotary encoder, tactile buttons, and the multi-channel LED array.
- Wire the peripheral interfaces: connect power rails (3.3V, GND) from POWER to MCU, SENSOR_ENV, SENSOR_BIO, and RTC. Hook up I2C data lines (SDA, SCL) between MCU and SENSOR_ENV, SENSOR_BIO, RTC, and ACTUATOR_LIGHT. Connect PWM_OUT to ACTUATOR_AUDIO, and GPIO lines (ENC_A, ENC_B, BTN) to INPUT_UI.
3
Firmware Setup
- Connect the ESP32-S3 programming header to a host computer via a USB-to-UART bridge adapter. Install the ESP-IDF development framework and configure the project workspace.
- Compile and flash the firmware binary incorporating local circadian rhythm algorithms, Wi-Fi/BLE connectivity stacks, sensor drivers for VEML7700, SHT41, MAX30102, DS3231, and LED lighting control via PCA9685.
4
Testing & Calibration
- Perform initial power-on self-test (POST) running on battery power managed by the BQ25896/TPS63020 circuit. Verify stable 3.3V system rails and confirm USB-C battery charging functionality.
- Calibrate ambient sensors and biometric modules: test VEML7700 lux readings against a reference light meter, verify SHT41 temperature/humidity accuracy, test MAX30102 heart rate and SpO2 response using an optical finger simulator, and check DS3231 RTC clock timekeeping.
- Verify user interface and actuator functionality: test rotary encoder navigation (ENC_A, ENC_B, BTN), trigger acoustic/haptic feedback on the PIEZO-01 buzzer, and validate smooth dimming and color transitions on the multi-channel LED array driven by the PCA9685.
- Perform end-to-end connectivity and sleep companion system test: verify Wi-Fi and BLE pairing, test local circadian rhythm automation routines, and run a 24-hour burn-in test.
