Automotive touchscreen control panel with ESP32-P4
The client first tried to design this board with AI tools, without usable results. I reviewed the schematics, fixed the issues and completed a 4-layer layout in KiCad.
The problem
The client needed one board for an automotive touchscreen control panel: processing, vehicle communications and sensing together. They had tried to create the design with AI tools, but it did not give usable results. They hired me to redo it and finish it properly.
What I did
- Reviewed and refined the schematics, and fixed component and interface issues.
- Integrated an ESP32-P4 module, MIPI DSI display interface, CAN bus, RS-232, USB and eMMC storage.
- Completed a compact 4-layer PCB layout in KiCad, combining digital, analog and power circuits within tight mechanical constraints.
The result
A complete, professional design that replaced the AI-generated attempt, with processing, communications and sensing on one board. Client and application details are kept private under NDA.
