mspc_v1 | the first generation, kept for reference |

Repository layout

Working with the files
- The projects are in KiCad 8 format. Newer KiCad versions upgrade them on the first save, and the result no longer opens in KiCad 8. Do such an upgrade as its own commit, with no design changes, so later diffs stay readable.
- Schematic PDFs (
outputs/schematic.pdf) are tracked, so the schematics can be read without KiCad. Gerbers and drill files are not: plot them from the KiCad project when ordering a board. Per-machine files (backups, caches,*.kicad_prl, lock files, local history) are ignored too.
Known issues
- Some outputs are older than the boards they sit next to: the mainboard stencil (from v1), the GPU cards' schematic PDFs and stencils (from before the VGA/DVI split), and the FPGA card's schematic PDF. Regenerate them before the next order.
- The silkscreen of the 20-pin bus adapter reads "2x15" (copied from the 30-pin adapter).
- The libraries are copied into each project and have diverged.

Questions
How big is the Gpu dvi card PCB?
It measures 24 × 50 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.02 mm thick.
What parts does the Gpu dvi card use?
55 parts, built around the W25Q32JVSSIQ, AP2112K-3.3, BS170FTA and ECS-120-8-36-CGN-TR. 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 Gpu dvi card KiCad files?
From the matgla/mspc repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is gpu_dvi_card/gpu_dvi_card.kicad_pcb and its schematic bus_adapter_20pin/bus_adapter_20pin/bus_adapter_20pin.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Can I use the Gpu dvi card design in my own project?
Its repository publishes it under the MIT licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
