PCB IC & Microcontroller Replacement Update

I have a PCB design that now needs a round of component swaps—specifically the main microcontroller. All other aspects of the board stay the same; I only need the schematic and layout touched where these packages sit.

You’ll receive the current design files based on Protel and the datasheet for the new microcontroller. The job is to drop-in the replacement parts, adjust footprints or pin mapping if required, reroute any affected nets, and make sure the board still passes all ERC/DRC checks. Once that is clean, regenerate the updated Gerbers, BOM, and pick-and-place data so I can push the design straight to fabrication.

Deliverables
• Updated schematic and PCB project files
• Clean ERC/DRC report showing zero errors
• Revised BOM with the new ICs and microcontroller clearly marked
• Manufacturing exports (Gerber, drill, assembly outputs)

Acceptance criteria: no design rule violations, footprints align with the new parts’ mechanical drawings, and power/clock lines on the microcontroller remain within spec.
