Raspberry Pi Pcb Design

Alex eames the creator of raspio products is an old friend of designspark using designspark pcb to design and create loads of great products for use with the raspberry pi.

Raspberry pi pcb design. To my mind the r pi format is a real pain for embedding with all of it s projections overhanging the pcb profile. Pcb design on the other hand could be perfected on. I had been using a raspberry pi to control my homebrewery for some time with various software and was growing tired of trying to arrange components and solder wires on prototyping boards every time i wanted to make a system change. I decided to design an open source pcb based on the compute module that is going to have all the basic features that make the raspberry pi great.

Messy and not that fun. One series is the size format of the raspberry pi and can be stacked and another series is based upon veroboard accessories. Sometime in 2017 i gained an interest in basic printed circuit board design. That includes a camera connector usb host audio output hdmi and of course a gpio header compatible with the regular raspberry pi boards.

You can t tell where the ports are from this picture but i should have measurements and precise placements for you next week some time pete lomas who has done the insanely fiddly work on this is away for the week for some richly deserved time away from pi and to try to recover what s left of his eyesight. Documentation in this section includes basic information about the raspberry pi compute module including schematics and design files.
