Footnotes

  1. Projects from a tutorial are 100% fine! We just want to ask so we can count how people are using tutorials.

  2. OnBoard Live is a special version of OnBoard where you can earn more money for designing advanced boards. Check out the #onboard-live channel on our Slack!

  3. Hacky Holidays is a limited time PCB event, design a holiday-themed PCB this Winter, and get it shipped.

Sorry but we have to reject, your MCU is 3 cents over-budget! Ok, ok just kidding! Looks really good, really cool project!!! Your submission is like an exemplary submission!
So I can see you only selected top-side assembly, do you have a soldering iron to assemble the two buttons on the bottom? Also would you like us to provide you with the two LIR2032s?

do you have a soldering iron to assemble the two buttons on the bottom?

Yes - I'm actually soldering all of the THT components myself (the buttons, the switch, the buzzer, and the header)

Also would you like us to provide you with the two LIR2032s?

Sure! I only have non rechargeable CR2032s at home

The problem is how we can get the THT parts to you, JLCPCB does not allow shipping some components unassembled with the board. Therefore unless you have the THT components on hand or want to pay for them out of pocket, it'd really be easiest for us to get them assembled using PCBA. Sorry!

That's fine; I do have all of those components on hand

If you can make sure that your JLCPCB order is still valid for economic assembly I can get your grant done asap!
