Now that the evaluation board version is ready it's time to try and make a breadboard version. This will allow for a prototype to be deployed and field tested. It will also allow for an estimate on what the final price will be. 

My local makerspace, Acrobotic, in Pasedena, CA is having classes on how to make a "Breaduino" and how to use a schematic CAD tool. I'm learning a lot more about electronics with their help in building a custom board. An Instructable from drj113 is the inspiration for combining Ethernet as opposed to buying a ready-made shield. drj113 provided the schematic below which I will be modifying to match my board's components.
