Summary

Adds a guide explaining how to model SparkFun MicroMod M.2 Key E edge connectors in tscircuit, covering:

  • Full 75-pin signal map table (all MicroMod standard signals)
  • Complete MicroModEdge chip component definition with schPinArrangement that hides GND pins for cleaner schematics
  • Processor board pattern: mapping MCU GPIO pins to M.2 pin numbers using sel.U1.pinN syntax
  • Carrier board pattern: routing M.2 signals to on-board peripherals
  • GND net label approach for connecting all 38 ground pins without clutter
  • Footprint note and KiCad import reference
  • Link to SparkFun MicroMod RP2040 as a complete real-world example

Adds a step-by-step tutorial that teaches readers how to place LEDs along
the outline of any capital letter using SVG path data from @tscircuit/alphabet
and a custom arc-length parameterization function (samplePath).

Step-by-step tutorial covering module placement, antenna keepout,
USB-C power with AMS1117-3.3 regulator, CH340G USB-UART bridge,
auto-reset circuit, and EN/BOOT pushbuttons. Each step has a live
TscircuitIframe PCB preview.

Covers the 75-pin M.2 Key E connector definition, signal map,
processor-to-carrier wiring pattern, and GND net label usage.
References the SparkFun MicroMod RP2040 as a full example.
