4f6e1bb347 v6 T4: Blocks O+P+Q+R - A7670SA LTE island complete in the schematic (33/33 net checks pass)
Block O (modem): U19 A7670SA-LASC (C18548276, LGA-124) - 19 signal nets + 39 GND + 66 NC,
all 124 pads accounted for. UART via 1.8V-side nets (_M suffix); USB joins J9 directly
(VBUS A4/A9/B4/B9 + DP/DM); USB_BOOT -> TP8; VDD_EXT -> 1V8_MODEM (shifter reference only);
NETLIGHT (1.8V) -> R109 4.7k -> Q22 MMBT3904 low-side, reusing the existing Rmled1+D4G1 LED
string re-driven: MODEM_LED label -> 3V3, D4G1 cathode GND label -> MODEM_LED_K.

Block P (3.8V rail): 24V -> D20 SS34 || MAIN5V -> D21 PMEG3050EP (C50603) -> VIN_MODEM ->
U20 AP64350SP-13 (C2071691, 40V/3.5A) -> L20 4.7uH -> VBAT_MODEM. Values from datasheet
DS41976: FB 0.8V (R110 75k / R111 20k = 3.8V), RT R117 200k = 500kHz (pin must not float),
COMP R116 14k + C141 3.3nF + C142 47pF, BST C129 100nF, EP -> GND. EN = MODEM_PWR_EN (PC10)
with R113 100k pull-down: rail DEFAULTS OFF (invariant #1); EN low >= 2s = HARD_CYCLE
(invariant #3). Bulk: 2x 220uF/10V (C2827940) + 22uF/1uF/100nF/33pF/10pF + R112 1k bleed +
D22 SMAJ5.0A TVS (C113952). VERIFY at layout: D22 pad-1-is-cathode against the fp marker.

Block Q (SIM): U22 MFF2_SIM symbol (new in Drogheda-sym; FOOTPRINT TBD "Drogheda:MFF2_5x6_TBD"
- build from the chosen carrier chip datasheet; PCB sync will flag it, expected). SIM_VDD
100nF + PESD5V0S1BA on DATA/CLK/RST (D23-25, C2827694, orientation cloned from D14).

Block R (level shift): 2x 74LVC2T45DC (C730237, direction-fixed). U23 DIR=GND: 3V3 DIN_4G ->
1.8V DIN_4G_M. U24 DIR=1V8: DOUT_4G_M -> DOUT_4G (also feeds U18 RXD2) and MODEM_STATUS_M ->
MODEM_STATUS (PC9). R106 100R taps DOUT_4G -> USART6_RX (PC7). DNP 0R bypasses R107/R108
across the RTCM path. Q20/Q21 2N7002 open-drain on PWRKEY/RESET with 100k pull-downs -
MCU absent leaves the modem free (invariant #1). PWRKEY timing: SIMCom >=50ms on / >=2.5s off.

CORRECTIONS this pass: (1) the schematic has 382 WIRE SEGMENTS - the earlier "zero wires"
finding was a regex artifact (multi-line xy); label-on-pin work was unaffected (all verified
against the PCB), but the LED relabel needed a wire-graph trace, now in the script.
(2) 9 stale no_connect markers removed from MCU pins that now carry labels (PC1-PC3, PA7,
PC8-PC12). (3) A7670SA is a 124-pad LGA, not the 88 claimed in the modem survey.

NEXT: Leo runs ERC + Update PCB from Schematic (U22 will complain - footprint TBD, skip it),
then T5 = LTC4040 input-limit errata fix + U7/L7 disposition, T6 = RF Block S + netclasses.

3494413eaf v6 T3: Block N - ZED-F9P (U18) + low-noise LDO (U21) placed and wired
Leo generated the vendor part with easyeda2kicad (C5120257) -> Drogheda-v6.kicad_sym /
.pretty / .3dshapes, now registered in sym-lib-table and fp-lib-table.

CROSS-CHECK: the EasyEDA/LCSC symbol independently CONFIRMS the datasheet transcription -
pads 1-54 match the u-blox pin assignment function for function, and the 21 Reserved pads
are identical. Pads 55-102 are 48 extra GND pads (the ground array under the module), which
our symbol was missing; T3a2 adds them stacked on the pin-1 coordinate so one GND label
serves all. Symbol is now 102/102 pins, footprint = Drogheda-v6:LCC-LGA-102_L22.0-W17.0_FM660.

Block N as wired (verified by rebuilding connectivity from label-on-pin geometry):
  GNSS_TX      U16.16 + U18.43        GNSS_RX  U16.17 + U18.42
  DOUT_4G      U18.26 (RXD2, RTCM in - modem end lands in T4)
  USART1_RX    U16.43 + Rdfu1.1 + U18.27 (TXD2 uplink; K1.1 also on this net per the PCB)
  GNSS_RESET_N U16.53 (PC12) + U18.49 + R105 10k pull-up to 3V3_GNSS
  GNSS_TIMEPULSE  U16.23 (PA7) + U18.53
  GNSS_ANT_DETECT U16.9 (PC1) + U18.4
  GNSS_ANT_SHORT_N U16.10 (PC2) + U18.6
  GNSS_RTK_STAT   U16.11 (PC3) + U18.20  <- hardware answer to are-corrections-being-used
  3V3_GNSS = U21.5 + U18.33/34 + C120-C124 + R105; U21 fed from SW_5V (stays MCU-gated)
  V_BCKP   = U18.36 on the UNGATED 3V3 so ephemeris survives a power-cycle
  33 no-connects: the 21 reserved pads plus V_USB, USB_DM/DP, ANT_OFF, SDA, SCL, TX_READY,
  D_SEL (open = UART mode), SAFEBOOT_N, EXTINT, GEOFENCE_STAT and the LDO NC/NR pin.

T3c fixes two coordinates the generators emitted as 3.552713679e-15 (i.e. zero); KiCad is
not guaranteed to accept exponent notation. See the script header for the lesson: a first
attempt used a bare numeric regex over the whole file and corrupted 264 UUIDs, because
segments such as 895e-4153 parse as scientific notation. Reverted from backup and redone
scoped to (at ...) forms only, with a UUID-integrity guard. Verified 2298 UUIDs, 0
malformed, 0 exponent coordinates.

STILL OPEN: the PCB has no U18/U21/passive footprints yet - that is a KiCad
Update-PCB-from-Schematic. And confirm the -04B datasheet pin assignment on paper.
