homectrl

system for general home automation. (custom PCBs in KiCad, firmware in C/C++, web-app in Next.js)

huge thanks to PCBWay for sponsoring this project's first revision.
check out REV A

REV B Updates:

  • board is currently out for fab.
  • main controller features a much more compact layout, 4L mixed-signal design, SMD-first component selection.
  • onboard ADC, stepper motor driver, power management.
  • all IC breakout circuitry was custom desgined, no breakout-boards were used.
  • designed a standalone ALS (ambient-light-sensor) breakout module for further automation capability.
