Compact ESP32 + SIMCom A7670E LTE PCB Design (Edge-Mounted I/O for Enclosure) Ended

About the job

We need a compact ESP32 + SIMCom LTE (A7670E/G) baseboard designed for integration inside an enclosure.
The goal is to create a small, reliable PCB that provides LTE + GSM connectivity with proper power handling and neatly aligned connectors on specific edges.

Key requirements:

MCU: ESP32-WROOM-32E (SMD)

Modem: SIMCom A7670E or A7670G (LTE Cat-1 + GSM fallback)

Input Power: 5 V – 28 V DC, protected (reverse, surge, TVS, PTC)

Voltage Rails: 4.0 V @ 2.5 A for modem, 3.3 V @ 1.5 A for ESP32

Connectors (edge-mounted):

Top edge → MMCX antenna connector (for modem)

Left edge → Power port → JST-GH 4-pin (Pixhawk UART, 3.3 V) → Side-eject Nano-SIM slot

Form factor: ~50 × 35 mm, 4-layer stackup (L1 Signal/RF, L2 GND, L3 Power, L4 Signal)

Design style: Fully SMD; only barrel jack (optional THT) if needed

Includes: Level shifters (3.3 V↔1.8 V), ESD protection, bulk polymer caps for modem, test pads, mounting holes near I/O edge

Deliverables:

Complete KiCad or Altium design files (schematic + layout)

Gerbers and BOM ready for JLCPCB/PCBWay fabrication

Basic 3D step model / panel DXF for enclosure fit

Use case:
This PCB will serve as the communication core in a telemetry/tracking device. It must be reliable, small, and ready for enclosure integration with ports exposed at the panel.

Please include examples of previous ESP32/modem/RF board designs in your proposal. Preference for engineers experienced with RF layout, power design, and SM... read more
