I designed my own #PCB for the #BME280 sensor (#temperature, #humidity, and barometric pressure), and the design is solid, but assembling it by hand is too difficult.

After 6 attempts and a bunch of rework, none of them were functional. Too much solder in one case, which shorted things out. Not enough in another case and the sensor came off. Some other error in another case were it read 32°F (incorrect) and no humidity reading.

So I'm giving up. A failed experiment. #electronics #hardware #GrowNostr
