Colby Azumo 11049-06 BLE Smartwatch PCB
Custom ultra-low-power Bluetooth 5.4 Low Energy (BLE) smartwatch mainboard engineered in Autodesk Fusion 360 with Adom AI Flow to fit inside the Colby 3D watch housing (33.405 mm x 38.361 mm recessed pocket shelf) and mate with zero stress to the official Azumo 11049-06 1.28-inch front-lit reflective Memory-in-Pixel (MIP) display.
Plain-Language Architecture Summary
- Exact Display Footprint & Symmetrical Torx Mounting Tabs: The main rectangular PCB body measures strictly
27.46 mm x 30.30 mmto match the Azumo 11049-06 display module footprint. Four symmetrical, mirrored corner mounting tabs with1.40 mmplated through-holes (H1toH4) extend to33.00 mm x 37.41 mmoverall and align to the exact29.7058 mm x 34.1132 mmcenter-to-center pitch of the four 1 mm mounting posts in the watch housing. - Zero-Stress FPC Ribbon Alignment: Both bottom-contact 0.5 mm pitch ZIF connectors (
J1: HiroseFH34SRJ-10S-0.5SH-5010-pin MIP LCD connector atX = 16.072 mm, Y = 31.210 mm;J2: HiroseFH34SRJ-4S-0.5SH-504-pin frontlight connector atX = 8.267 mm, Y = 31.210 mm) are positioned directly on the horizontal centerlines and fold radii of the Azumo display flex tails so both ribbons plug straight in with zero sideways bend or stress. - Wireless Charging & Largest Compatible LiPo Battery: A TDK
WR222230-26M8-G(22.0 mm x 22.0 mm x 0.75 mm, 26.8 uH) Qi receiver coil feeds a Texas InstrumentsBQ51003YFPRQi v1.2 wireless receiver (5.0 V regulated output) and a MicrochipMCP73831T-2ACI-OTlinear LiPo charger configured for 100 mA CC/CV charging (R2 = 10.0 kOhm) into a 150 mAh302025standard LiPo pouch cell (ASR00003,20.0 mm x 25.0 mm x 3.0 mm). - Always-On BLE 5.4 Core, Haptics & Tap Control: A Raytac
MDBT50Q-1MV2(NordicnRF52840BLE 5.4 SoC with integrated ceramic chip antenna and 1 MB Flash / 256 KB RAM) drives the 2 MHz SPI display bus, reads hardware single/double-tap interrupts over 400 kHz I2C from the STMicroelectronicsLIS2DW12TR3-axis accelerometer (0.38 uAultra-low-power mode), dims the frontlight LED via low-side MOSFETQ1(BSS138LT1G+R5 = 39 Ohm), and pulses the VybronicsVZ30C1T8460002Lcoin vibration motor via low-side MOSFETQ2(BSS138LT1G) with aBAT54JFILMSchottky flyback clamp (D1). - PCBWay Manufacturing & Black-on-Black Aesthetics: Designed to PCBWay standard design rules (
0.15 mm / 0.15 mmmin trace/space,0.30 mmmin via drill,1.0 mmboard thickness, 1 oz outer copper, Matte Black solder mask, and Black silkscreen).

6. Complete 3D Populated Watch Assembly (Underside: 302025 LiPo & Qi Receiver Coil)

Figure 6: Underside view of the complete 3D assembly showing the 150 mAh 302025 LiPo battery (20.0 mm x 25.0 mm x 3.0 mm with Kapton collar) and the 22.0 mm x 22.0 mm TDK WR222230-26M8-G wireless charging receiver coil nested cleanly inside the watch pocket envelope.
7. DC Copper Current Density Solve (adom-fields)

Figure 7: Finite-volume DC current density map (adom-fields) across VBAT (120 mA), V_WCHG (100 mA), and VDD_3V3 (40 mA). Peak copper current density is 20.0 A/mm², providing a 3x safety margin below the 60.0 A/mm² limit with 0.000 W copper Joule loss.
8. Coupled 3D Electro-Thermal Steady-State Map & Transient SPICE Waveforms

Figure 8: Coupled 3D steady-state thermal map (adom-fields) under simultaneous Qi wireless charging and active operation (0.22 W total IC dissipation). Peak temperature rise is +21.0 °C in still air (+15.0 °C in moving air), well inside the +25.0 °C budget.
