What's included

• Fully Documented Source Code

  The software components of the project will be thoroughly documented at the source file level. This includes clear comments explaining the purpose and functionality of each section of the code, making it readable and understandable for anyone reviewing it. Additionally, for larger projects, an architectural overview will be provided, detailing how different modules interact and which modules are responsible for specific functions. Complicated state transitions or information flows will be accompanied by diagrams for better understanding. Any magic numbers, lookup tables, or simplified algorithms used within the software will be documented along with their derivations, ensuring future adjustments or recreations are possible

• Detailed Hardware Documentation

  The hardware aspects of the project will be clearly documented, including diagrams of boards or modules with labeled connection points, voltage/current limits for all inputs and outputs, and design values and limits. This documentation aims to ensure that anyone receiving the hardware has all the necessary information to set it up correctly. Design decisions, such as the choice of component values or operating limits, will be explained, providing insight into the reasoning behind specific engineering choices

• Schematic and Schematic Diagrams

  The source documents, such as schematics, will be presented in a clear and easy-to-follow manner. For large projects, block diagrams will be included to illustrate the hierarchical organization and functional areas of the system. These diagrams will help in understanding the overall architecture and flow of the hardware components

• Component Selection and Integration Guidance

  Based on the project requirements, recommendations for suitable microcontroller chips and other components will be provided. This guidance will consider factors such as input/output capabilities, power consumption, and compatibility with existing systems. Advice on embedding Arduino into projects permanently, including considerations for in-circuit programming (ISP), will also be included to ensure long-term reliability and ease of maintenance
