Move the charge controller, USB-C TCPC, and RTC to I2C1

Since each of these ICs will be powered at the same time as the SoM regardless of the PWR_EN state, they should share the same I2C bus as the PMIC.

Now using GPIO5_IO03 (P4.03) to put the class-D op-amp in shutdown and conserve energy when muted, make C1716 near the ETH PHY's DVDDL pin 47 220nF instead of 10uF (EmCraft suggested that this should be 100nF but their's is 220nF, asked why), added a 10k pull-down to PAM2841's ENA pin, added a 100nF cap to the smart card's C1 VCC pin, added a 1uF cap to the haptic motor circuit's 3V3_P rail

Still need to use I2C3 instead of I2C1 according to EmCraft's suggestions.
Move CAPTOUCH_~RST from BOOT_CFG_03 to GPIO1_IO05/...

Move CAPTOUCH_~RST from BOOT_CFG_03 to GPIO1_IO05/P3.33 (was CSI_P2_PWDN), add a 10k pull-down to LCD_~RESET, make the corresponding changes to the BoM and netlist/layout

Having CAPTOUCH_~RST on BOOT_CFG_03 caused a voltage divider on the pin.

by Eric Kuzmenko 7 years 1 month
Add proper WWAN reset circuit using a MMBT2222A NPN BJT along with a 100nF cap and a TVS diode, make needed adjustements to the WWAN's SIM card circuit (UIM-CLK and UIM-RESET caps are NC & added 4.7k series resistor to SIM_DETECT_O#), assign the MMBT2222A footprint to KiCad's official SOT-23 footprint (identical to the spec sheet's recommended land pattern)

If necessary, the NC cap pads on UIM-CLK and UIM-RESET can be tested with various values during the first prototype debugging phase.

Replace WWAN M.2 circuit with one intended for mPCIe modules, include 74LVC1G08 single 2-input AND gate, create the AND gate's footprint and use the official SOT-23-5 3D model

The mini-SIM slot will need to be replaced with one that has an active-LOW detection pin. Will want to see if we can find cheap electrolytic to replace a few of the tantalum caps with (not all since we still need some low ESR, high capacitance, low profile, caps).
