Overview

Jetbot mini is an open-source printed circuit board by NVIDIA-AI-IOT, from the NVIDIA-AI-IOT/jetbot_mini repository on GitHub. It is a 4-layer board of 94.3 × 52.8 mm with 188 parts on 238 nets, routed with 1,802 tracks and 371 vias.

It is built around the AP6503SP, GS9238TQ-R and TPD4E05U06DQAR, with the MC74VHC1G01DFT1G, PI4ULS5V201TAEX and 74LVC4245AD among its other parts. Its parts include 61 resistors, 59 capacitors, 24 ICs, 10 diodes and 8 transistors.

Setup

While developing the schematic and layout designs, I used some footprints from SnapEDA; in order to avoid dealing with licensing issues, I will not redistribute those files on this Github and instead link to where you can download the necessary files.

Symbol Library Setup

To get setup for the schematic, download the files and import the libraries "Jetbot Mini-rescue" and "Jetbot_Mini_Symbols" in the "libs" folder.

In order to import a library, go through the following steps:

  1. Download the .dcm and .lib files and remember where you stored them on your computer
  2. Download the rest of the KiCAD files and open up the .pro file
  3. Go to Preferences --> Manage Symbol Libraries --> Project Specific Libraries --> Add Existing Library to Table (folder icon on lower left of dialogue box)
  4. Navigate to where the .lib files are stored on your computer and select the files
  5. The libraries should be imported and when you try to add a component to the schematic, you should see the libraries show up

You may need the download the following symbol libraries from the KiCAD github: https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-symbols

Library Name
Connector
Connector_Generic
Logic_LevelTranslator

Footprint Library Setup

To get setup for the layout design, you need the following SnapEDA footprint files (you need to make an account if you don't have one already, download the footprint and unzip the package):

In order to import the footprints, go through the following steps:

  1. Download the KiCAD files to your computer
  2. Open the .pro file and click "Footprint Editor" on the top ribbon, the icon is a 6 pin package with green pins
  3. Go to File --> New Library --> Create library with name of your choice (should have .pretty extension) in place of your choice, it is typical to keep everything with the KiCAD files --> Choose local
  4. Your library should be created, then add the .kicad_mod files from the downloaded SnapEDA folders to the .pretty folder
  5. Open up the schematic and go to "Assign PCB footprints to schematic symbols" on the top ribbon, and assign the footprints from your custom library to each of the corresponding symbols

Questions

How big is the Jetbot mini PCB?

It measures 94.3 × 52.8 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Jetbot mini use?

188 parts, built around the AP6503SP, GS9238TQ-R, TPD4E05U06DQAR and MC74VHC1G01DFT1G. 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 Jetbot mini KiCad files?

From the NVIDIA-AI-IOT/jetbot_mini repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is design/A01/v1/Jetbot_Mini.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Jetbot mini design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask NVIDIA-AI-IOT before reusing the design.
