Through this project, I have learned the steps taken in designing a PCB along with proper design procedures such as placement of decoupling capacitors. Furthermore, the project allowed me to improve my skills of obtaining the correct information from datasheets when designing the schematic and choosing appropriate values for the resistors and capacitors. I look forward to getting this board manufactured in the near future.
