Marc-André Turbide developed and refined the HighAmpOutput PCB for the robotique-udes/PCB repository, focusing on manufacturability, hardware reliability, and maintainability. Over four months, he iteratively improved the board’s layout and schematic using KiCad, implementing connector migrations, component repositioning, and documentation updates to support evolving hardware requirements. He addressed a critical thermal break width bug and enhanced traceability through comprehensive commit-driven documentation. His work integrated electrical engineering principles with practical PCB design, ensuring compliance and future maintenance readiness. The depth of his contributions is reflected in the careful attention to hardware integration, schematic capture, and the overall production-readiness of the board.

Concise monthly summary for 2025-05 focusing on the PCB repo. Delivered a critical bug fix for the HighAmpOutput PCB by correcting the thermal break width to 2 mm and enhanced documentation by adding a PCB description. The changes were tracked and committed to maintain traceability.

April 2025 monthly summary focusing on key accomplishments for the robotique-udes/PCB project. The primary deliverable was the HighAmpOutput PCB redesign (V2) with significant improvements to hardware layout, documentation, and manufacturability. The work included a connector migration from XT60 to JST PH, repositioning of critical components, and extending the board with added resistors and capacitors while updating silkscreen and schematic documentation to reflect the changes. All changes were tracked and committed in the repository, ensuring traceability and quick onboarding for future maintenance. While no separate bug fixes were required this month, the redesign reduces risk, improves assembly reliability, and enables smoother integration with downstream systems.
