About the Scripted Sensor Node PCB
Scripted Sensor Node is an open source PCB design by chainstart, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 60 × 38 mm, with 18 components from 9 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the MCU_QFN16, I2C_SENSOR and 3V3_REG. By type, the board carries 8 test points, 3 ICs, 1 connector, 1 diode, 1 capacitor and 1 resistor.
It belongs with the sensors designs in this gallery.
From the project
MakerAI hardware-agent research, whitepaper, lab artifacts, and MVP pipeline
This directory is an archived MakerAI EDA prototype. It explored:
- optional natural-language to hardwaredsl.json conversion; - deterministic .kicadsch and .kicadpcb` generation; - KiCad ERC/DRC and fabrication exports; - DSN/SES exchange with FreeRouting; and - a separate structured-SVG review drawing.
It is retained for historical reproduction only. Its generated rectangular symbols, passive pin modeling, global-label-per-pin schematic connectivity, and project-specific normalization rules are superseded by the typed specification, evidence, versioned block templates, real KiCad…
