組裝指南
6-8 hoursAdvanced
1
Procurement & Preparation
- Source and inspect all required Bill of Materials components including NRF5340-QKAA-R, MAX30102EFD+T, BMI270, MAX-M10S-00B, XHP35B-00-0000-0D0UC20E1, and BQ51050BRHLR.
- Prepare the multi-layer rugged PCB chassis, ensuring copper pads are oxidized-free and clean using isopropyl alcohol.
2
Hardware Assembly & Wiring
- Apply lead-free type 4 solder paste to the main PCB pads using a stainless steel stencil for the MCU, sensors, and power management ICs.
- Place the Nordic nRF5340 MCU, Maxim MAX30102 PPG sensor, Bosch BMI270 IMU, u-blox M10 GNSS receiver, and BQ51050B wireless charging IC onto their respective footprints.
- Mount the High-Brightness White LED (XHP35B-00-0000-0D0UC20E1) onto the dedicated thermal pad on the outer chassis boundary and wire the constant current control line.
- Establish the hardware interface connections: connect MCU to SENSOR_PPG via I2C (SDA, SCL, INT, VCC_1V8, GND), MCU to SENSOR_IMU via SPI (MOSI, MISO, SCK, CS, INT, VCC_3V3, GND), MCU to GNSS_MODULE via UART (TX, RX, VCC_3V3, GND), and MCU to ACTUATOR_TORCH via PWM (PWM_CTRL, VCC, GND).
- Integrate the rechargeable Li-ion battery and wireless charging receiver circuit to the power management rails (VCC_3V3, GND).
3
Firmware Setup
- Connect the SWD programmer interface to the Nordic nRF5340 application processor and flash the bootloader and real-time operating system image.
- Configure and compile firmware modules for I2C communication with the MAX30102 PPG sensor, SPI driver for the BMI270 IMU, UART parsing for the u-blox M10 GNSS, PWM control for the torch LED, and BLE stack for smartphone connectivity.
4
Testing & Calibration
- Perform electrical continuity and current draw checks across all power rails (VCC_3V3 and VCC_1V8) in sleep and active operating modes.
- Test wireless charging functionality by placing the assembled smartwatch chassis onto a Qi-compatible wireless charging pad and monitoring charge current.
- Calibrate the Bosch BMI270 IMU 6-axis motion tracking and tilt-to-wake feature, test the MAX30102 optical heartbeat sensor response against a known simulator, and verify u-blox M10 GNSS satellite lock outdoors.
- Test the high-brightness white LED torch module across all PWM duty cycle levels for thermal stability and maximum lumen output.

System Architecture
Power Topology: Wireless charging receiver coil feeds a Qi wireless charging IC, which charges a 3.7V rechargeable Li-ion battery. A system Power Management IC (PMIC) and low-dropout (LDO) regulators generate a primary 3.3V rail for the MCU, IMU, GNSS, and torch, alongside a filtered, isolated low-noise 1.8V rail dedicated to the PPG heart rate sensor to prevent optical switching noise.
