组装指南
Procurement & Preparation
- Source all required electronic components including NRF52840-QIAA-R7 MCU, BQ25150 PMIC, MAX30101, BMI270, ST33, DA7280-00FVC, AMOLED display, and 150mAh Li-Po batteries (ASR00003).
- Prepare custom PCB stencils and inspect Gerber files for the smart wristband mainboard, ensuring proper clearance for the 1.8V and 3.3V power rails, I2C pull-up resistors, and SPI display routing.
Hardware Assembly & Wiring
- Apply lead-free SMT solder paste onto the custom PCB pads using a stencil printer, placing the nRF52840 MCU, BQ25150 PMIC, MAX30101 sensor, BMI270 IMU, ST33 secure element, and DA7280-00FVC LRA driver via pick-and-place machine.
- Run the populated PCB assembly through a convection reflow oven with a standard lead-free temperature profile.
- Manually solder the AMOLED display flex cable to the board SPI interface (SCK, MOSI, CS, DC, RESET, GND) and connect the 150mAh Li-Po battery (ASR00003) to the BAT+ and BAT- power pads.
Firmware Setup
- Flash the Nordic Semiconductor nRF52840 bootloader and application firmware via SWD interface, configuring the BLE stack and NFC quick pairing parameters.
- Integrate peripheral drivers for I2C communication with the MAX30101 heart rate sensor, BMI270 IMU, and ST33 secure element, alongside SPI drivers for the AMOLED display and PWM configuration for the DA7280 haptic driver.
Testing & Calibration
- Perform electrical and power-rail testing using a multimeter and oscilloscope, verifying that the BQ25150 outputs clean VDD_3V3 and VDD_1V8 rails and that charging functionality operates correctly with the 150mAh Li-Po battery.
- Calibrate the MAX30101 optical sensor for heart rate and SpO2 accuracy, test the BMI270 motion tracking and step counting algorithms, verify NFC secure payment transactions with the ST33 secure element, and test UI responsiveness on the AMOLED touchscreen.
