1
Procurement & Preparation
- Procure all required BOM components including ME6211C50M3G, ESP32-S3-WROOM-1-N16R8, BME280, SGP30-2.5K, and VEML7700-TR.
- Prepare the PCB stencil, solder paste (SAC305), and organize pick-and-place feeders for power, MCU, and environmental sensor modules.
2
Hardware Assembly & Wiring
- Apply SAC305 solder paste to the PCB pads using the stainless steel stencil and alignment jig.
- Place the ME6211 3.3V LDO Voltage Regulator (ME6211C50M3G) and Espressif ESP32-S3 module (ESP32-S3-WROOM-1-N16R8) onto their designated pads.
- Place the Bosch BME280, Sensirion SGP30, and Vishay VEML7700 sensors, verifying the shared I2C bus lines (SDA, SCL) and power connections route correctly to the MCU.
- Pass the populated PCB assembly through a reflow oven following a standard lead-free profile (peak temperature ~245°C).
3
Firmware Setup
- Connect the ESP32-S3 module to the development PC via USB-C for programming and debugging.
- Configure the development environment (ESP-IDF / Arduino IDE) with required libraries for BME280, SGP30, and VEML7700 I2C communication.
- Compile and flash the firmware binary to the ESP32-S3, implementing sensor polling loops for temperature, humidity, pressure, TVOC, eCO2, and ambient light.
4
Testing & Calibration
- Perform a power-on current check to ensure the ME6211 LDO and ESP32-S3 idle state draw expected baseline current without short circuits.
- Validate I2C communication by scanning the bus to confirm all three sensor addresses (BME280, SGP30, VEML7700) respond correctly.
- Calibrate ambient light readings from the VEML7700 against a reference light meter and verify environmental baseline readings for the BME280 and SGP30 sensors.
