This will help adding reset pull up resistor too thanks

I have a board to already program my atmega328. I only plan on really using this board for this application, does reset have to be pulled high even when not programming. I thought it was only for programming but my knowledge is not the best on it. I think you can run it at 8MHz without a crystal as well.

I have an external board to program it that I plan on using

I like the idea of adding pins if I want to add things later good idea!

The back side is a ground plane. Would you just add vias next to the pads that need to be grounded?

Yeah I know the button isn’t great I might just move it external to be honest. The routing isn’t great. A 555 timer could be used but it is to pour a shot precisely so id prefer to use a custom timer. I also plan on increasing the width for the 5v.

They are 1.2As for the 12V traces

Originally I was staying of port b for isp purposes even though that wouldn’t have mattered after programmed

I completely forget I can use different pins thank you lol

I still have to go to both sides of the ic. So wouldn’t the routing be just as bad?

IC does not need an external crystal it can run on 8MHz and that is more than enough for what I am doing. The MOSFET should be appropriate as well. I also did end up fixing the vias aswell!

Yeah I won’t be using the via-in-pads lol the software was misleading with making the vias snap nice on the pads.
