Description

Found a couple of things while reviewing the layout:

  1. The PWR_IN_12V doesn't look connected to power connector very well. There is plenty of room on the top to make that connection better

  2. There is some weird keepout around the PWR_IN_12V via on the Route15 layer which is causing connection issues. It looks like the footprint for that connector is not correct

  3. The SYS_VDD1_3P3V pour on the Route15 layer is not straight on the right side

  4. There is a weird little stub pour on the Route15 layer for N$14

  5. Are the two antennas far enough apart? I wasn't sure the min distance for MIMO.

Research direction

Start by inspecting the board layout, the PWR_IN_12V connector and via, and the Route15 layer. Check the connector connection and footprint keepout, the SYS_VDD1_3P3V and N$14 pours, and the antenna spacing; done means these layout concerns are resolved and the MIMO spacing is confirmed.
