Very nice work! Is your white paper complete enough to have my students try to tackle it as well? I looked through it and it seems to be missing some of the components for the PCB.

What size diodes and Resistors are required for the completion of this project?
Also is there anything missing from the whitepaper I should know about?

Thanks in advance for bringing teams to the next generation!
