SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Hardware changes in PCB design often drift from firmware and documentation, leading to build failures and misconfigurations. This Skill automates the propagation of routing updates, GPIO remapping, and component changes to firmware configuration, project docs, and related config files, reducing manual drift.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Detect diffs between PCB design changes and firmware/docs sources and generate a synchronized update.
  • Apply fixes to board_config.h, datasheet mappings, and documentation to preserve consistency before builds.
  • Regenerate or refresh dependent artifacts (docs, schematics notes, and configuration references) to reflect the latest hardware changes.
  • Run validation and verification steps to ensure cross-source integrity.

Quick Start

Run this skill after any PCB routing or GPIO remapping change to propagate updates to firmware, docs, and configuration files.

Frequently Asked Questions about pcb-to-firmware

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I keep firmware and docs in sync with PCB routing changes?

To keep firmware in sync with PCB routing changes, you can automate the propagation of hardware modifications to board_config.h and documentation. This detects diffs between PCB design sources and applies updates to maintain cross-source consistency before builds.

What is the best way to automate GPIO remapping updates across config files?

Automating GPIO remapping updates requires detecting hardware changes and applying fixes to configuration files like board_config.h. This process regenerates dependent artifacts and runs validation steps to ensure firmware matches the updated PCB layout.

How do I prevent build failures caused by PCB component substitutions?

To prevent build failures from PCB component substitutions, propagate part changes to firmware configuration and project docs automatically. This enforces diff-based updates and regenerates configuration references to verify cross-source integrity.

Can I automatically update board_config.h after hardware modifications?

Yes, you can automatically update board_config.h after hardware modifications by running a synchronization process. It applies fixes to datasheet mappings and configuration references, then runs validation to verify that firmware matches the latest PCB routing.

When do I need to regenerate documentation after a PCB design update?

You need to regenerate documentation after a PCB design update whenever routing, GPIO, or component changes occur. This ensures schematics notes and configuration references reflect the latest hardware state before running validation and build steps.

Does firmware synchronization work without external dependencies?

Yes, firmware synchronization works without external dependencies. The process relies on internal scripts to detect PCB design diffs, apply fixes to board_config.h and docs, and validate cross-source consistency without requiring additional libraries.
