Overview

This project contains open hardware design files for the QuickFeather development board based on the QuickLogic EOS S3 Sensor Processing Platform. The design files were created by Antmicro in cooperation with QuickLogic. The board has been designed to keep compatibility with the Adafruit Feather ecosystem of evaluation boards. This allows the user to explore functionalities of the EOS S3 platform.

Project structure:

The main directory contains the KiCad design files, LICENSE and README. The remaining files are stored in the following directories:

  • img - contains graphics for this README
  • doc - contains generated schematics and other documentation
  • lib - contains KiCad component library

Key features

  • QuickLogic EOS S3 Processing Platform
  • mCube MC3635 accelerometer
  • Infineon DPS310 pressure sensor
  • Infineon IM69D130 MEMS microphone
  • 16Mbit of on-board flash memory
  • User button and RGB LED
  • Powered from USB or a single Li-Po battery
  • Integrated battery charger
  • USB data signals tied to programmable logic
  • IO signals break-routed into general purpose pinheads

Questions

How big is the Quickfeather board PCB?

It measures 58.4 × 22.9 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Quickfeather board use?

101 parts, built around the DPS310, GD25Q16CWIGR, TPS62821DLCR and EOSAI-S-PUN64. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the Quickfeather board KiCad files?

From the antmicro/quickfeather-dev-board repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is quickfeather-board.kicad_pcb and its schematic quickfeather-board.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Quickfeather board design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the CC-BY-SA-4.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
