Wrong!

A project log for Memulator

Hardwired (USB) mouse emulator for automating clicks on third party programs. Job workflow improvement (supposedly)

And the board is wrong...damnnnnn...the relay footprint is reversed (relays can be mounted on the underside...but, really?... I don't want to spend eight military grade relays on the board like that... I also had bad footprints for the USB, Xtal, forgot four resistors for the module (altough that wasn't a problem, could solder them instead of a header for the module) and in general, it could have some redesign around.
I would have liked it to work first time, but all in all, I'll treat it as a learning experience. I can now learn from my mistakes, do it again, better, more calmly (you couldn't believe how excited I was for doing my first board!)
I'll also add quick calibration jumpers, so you don't have to fiddle with the pots for that (25 turns are a bit too much for that, arent they?) Also, all is not wasted, I can use one board to develop the software, as simple as it is, it's better than a breadboard XD!
