Knowledge transfer done with Andrew Chai
Did initial placement for MCU + Power + Gate Driver
Will need to put more thought into FETs - most likely will require some cooling system since most FETs on Digikey within a reasonable price will not be able to handle the operation conditions at ambient temp
Will consult with Kevin and Ethan regarding further steps and some feedback on initial placement
