Bring-up
The process of testing a freshly fabbed board step by step until it works.
How it looks
Real image: CORE3588, rendered by KiCad from our board file
The bring-up access points designed into CORE3588: pads and headers that exist only so people can test the board.
- 1TP1, a test pad on the power-fault signal: touch a meter probe here.
- 2SOM service pads: reach the computer module's boot and reset lines.
- 3The debug serial header: the first place we read messages from the computer module.
- 4ESP32 recovery pads (BOOT, GND, EN).
How it works
Where it fits
Bring-up ends a spin. Problems found here may trace back to ERC or DRC gaps or to DFM.
