Hello, I hope you're having a great day. I have hands-on experience having delivered multiple compact PCBs combining high-voltage arc generators with Li-ion charging and protection for consumer devices. I recently completed a dual-arc torch PCB where I used a boost converter plus MOSFET driver and managed EMI by split ground and ferrite bead filtering, built around a 350 mAh cell. I'd start in KiCad with a schematic, SPICE check of the HV stage, then PCB layout focused on creepage, thermal and EMI, producing Gerbers and Pick-and-Place files. If you have ten minutes, I'd like to compare notes on USB Type-C charging choice and the exact 300–500 mAh cell you plan to use so I can lock component selection. Thank you, habib Niazi
