You have unconnected traces Attachment: CleanShot_2026-08-19_at_09.51.032x.png — https://community.tscircuit.com/media/1539678317836378162 ## Seve — 2026-08-19T16:53:18.776000+00:00 make sure to use a HIGH QUALITY AI like Sol Extra High, issues like this should have come up in tsci check ## Seve — 2026-08-19T16:54:50.897000+00:00 <@1067854999889137715> what is the chip that is like "better than" the mod board- can you add an audio jack? I think this board might not be able to driver a speaker ## techmannih — 2026-08-20T04:03:58.542000+00:00 added the audio codec, headphone jack, and stereo speaker amplifier, cleaned up the schematic, and reran the checks. ## techmannih — 2026-08-20T04:21:49.477000+00:00 Can you please check it, ## Seve — 2026-08-20T05:31:25.910000+00:00 wdym audio codec? ## techmannih — 2026-08-20T05:33:15.569000+00:00 CC2564MODA outputs digital PCM/I2S audio, so the codec converts it to analog for the headphone jack and speaker amplifier. TPA2012D2 is the actual speaker driver. ## Seve — 2026-08-20T07:02:18.812000+00:00 Yea i mean maybe we go for it ## Seve — 2026-08-20T07:02:35.526000+00:00 Can you price it, ill also let <@809856037376491570> review ## Seve — 2026-08-20T07:03:05.895000+00:00 I REALLY dont like that we’re using the mod so please prepare an alternate with the newer chip ## Seve — 2026-08-20T07:03:23.833000+00:00 Serious pcb designers dont use modules!!! ## techmannih — 2026-08-20T08:02:20.022000+00:00 I checked the pricing. The current CC2564MODA module is about $15.95 ## techmannih — 2026-08-20T08:02:46.386000+00:00 I think we can replace it with the newer, active CC2564C, which costs about $5.01? can use it as alternative? ## techmannih — 2026-08-20T10:04:42.233000+00:00 <@809856037376491570> , can you also check what improvements we can make before the meeting if we're going to show it there? ## Rishabh — 2026-08-20T11:44:58.226000+00:00 The holes are a bit weird being placed in the middle. Move them to the corners Attachment: image.png — https://community.tscircuit.com/media/1539963452129411193 ## Rishabh — 2026-08-20T11:45:42.558000+00:00 It's a 4 layer board? ## Rishabh — 2026-08-20T11:48:36.117000+00:00 move these to the center, symmetry would look good Attachment: image.png — https://community.tscircuit.com/media/1539964365137125438 Attachment: image.png — https://community.tscircuit.com/media/1539964365514477568 Attachment: image.png — https://community.tscircuit.com/media/1539964366110334997 ## techmannih — 2026-08-20T15:25:44.733000+00:00 done, ## Seve — 2026-08-20T17:50:50.287000+00:00 no i mean prepare the order in jlcpcb ## Seve — 2026-08-20T17:51:07.246000+00:00 yes <@1067854999889137715> i think you should create a CC2564C-based variant ## Seve — 2026-08-20T17:51:12.693000+00:00 that would also be useful for ti ## Seve — 2026-08-20T17:55:48.871000+00:00 <@1067854999889137715> URGENT: push your board with --include-dist YOUR BOARD IS NOT BUILT ON TSCIRCUIT.COM WE CANNOT DEMO ## Seve — 2026-08-20T17:58:08.163000+00:00 <@809856037376491570> there is an old version here: https://techmannih--boost-cc2564moda-v1-0-16.tscircuit.app/ ## Rishabh — 2026-08-20T17:58:22.328000+00:00 I am building the new one using admin panel ## Seve — 2026-08-20T17:58:37.760000+00:00 it had a timeout tho- not sure it would build ## Seve — 2026-08-20T17:58:44.305000+00:00 i cloned it locally and started to build ## Rishabh — 2026-08-20T17:58:45.919000+00:00 Increased the timeout ## Rishabh — 2026-08-20T17:59:02.633000+00:00 His config file didn't have the timeout ## Seve — 2026-08-20T17:59:07.484000+00:00 oh ## Seve — 2026-08-20T17:59:21.345000+00:00 the old version is honestly good enough ## Seve — 2026-08-20T17:59:37.002000+00:00 but it is unfortunate ## Rishabh — 2026-08-20T17:59:44.253000+00:00 okay, yeh this build might take couple of minutes. So, we should go with that, no option ## techmannih — 2026-08-20T18:12:20.962000+00:00 Latest version https://techmannih--boost-cc2564moda-v1-0-19.tscircuit.app/#file=index.circuit.tsx
