BOM review and component selection for an nRF52840 board

I checked the full bill of materials of an nRF52840 board against the schematic and footprints, reviewed component values and added a distributor part number for every part, ready for assembly.

The problem

The client had a board built around an nRF52840 module, with battery charging, a haptic driver, touch sensing, an IMU and external flash. Before assembly, they needed a bill of materials (BOM) they could trust.

What I did

  • Checked every part in the BOM against the schematic and the footprints.
  • Reviewed component values on the power circuits and changed them where needed.
  • Added a distributor part number for every part to be assembled.
  • Marked the parts that are not fitted (DNP), so the manufacturer assembles the right version of the board.

The result

A verified BOM, ready for the manufacturer’s assembly service. Client and application details are kept private under NDA.
