Circuit Documentation
Summary
The circuit in question is designed to interface a load cell with a microcontroller unit (MCU) for weight measurement, and provide visual feedback through a display as well as auditory feedback using a buzzer. The MCU used in this circuit is the T-Display-S3, which is responsible for processing the data from the load cell through the HX711 bridge sensor interface. The HX711 acts as an analog-to-digital converter, amplifying the signals from the load cell. The buzzer is controlled by the MCU to provide an alert or feedback based on certain conditions or thresholds.

Documented Code
No code has been provided for the microcontroller. The documentation of the code would typically include a description of the functionality, setup, and main loop, along with any interrupt service routines or additional functions. Since no code is available, this section cannot be completed. If code becomes available, it should be documented here with comments explaining the purpose and functionality of each section of the code.
