   • Keep sensitive analog traces short
   • Consider thermal management for power components

3. Signal Integrity:

   • Use controlled impedance for high-speed signals
   • Minimize crosstalk between analog and digital sections
   • Consider EMI/EMC guidelines

4. Power Distribution:

   • Use wide traces for power lines
   • Implement star grounding technique
   • Consider separate analog and digital grounds, joined at a single point

5. Mechanical Considerations:

   • Design for ergonomics and user comfort
   • Include mounting holes for enclosure
   • Plan for battery placement and accessibility

Firmware Considerations
