Two PCBs are developed with KiCAD. One is developed with Altium. + +A transimpedance amplifier is used to convert light into a voltage. With a +second stage this voltage is amplified. Both outputs are available for the ADC. + +On the digital board there is besides an ESP8266, an ADC, an DAC and a temperature +sensor.
