SonySwitchUp

SonySwitchUp aims to put modern hardware inside a Sony VAIO UX, replacing its original motherboard with a Nintendo Switch OLED motherboard.

The project also explores using a Switch motherboard as the foundation for a cyberdeck or other custom device, much as you might use a Raspberry Pi or LattePanda. The VAIO UX build is a practical example of that idea, with the aim of showing how adaptable Switch hardware can be.

The goal is to develop both a VAIO UX conversion kit and example designs others can build on. We hope these files inspire people to reuse, optimize, or modify the adapters for their own projects. A key motivation is putting secondhand Switch hardware to work in affordable custom builds.

MIPI display adapter

The MIPI adapter repins the Switch OLED motherboard's display FPC connector to match the Startek KD050HDOIN116-C000-a replacement AMOLED screen used in this build. It routes the MIPI DSI display signals to the panel's pinout and provides the associated power switching and control connections.

This revision is designed for that specific screen, whose specification is included.

Status

Work in progress.

Please do not use these files yet. as I am mostly developing locally and this is currently just a placeholder.

I've already gotten new revisions done and will soon be in the stages of ordering prototypes and testing.

this project will have both a MIPI Adapter. and have an USB HID controller to connect the UX Keyboard to any USB device.

Only the MIPI adapter Rev D files are included so far. The adapter is unfinished and has not been validated on powered hardware; the complete VAIO UX kit and other project components will follow as development progresses.

A project license has not been selected yet. Included third-party documents and libraries retain their respective ownership and license terms.

Questions

How big is the Mipi adapter revD PCB?

It measures 32 × 36 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.59 mm thick.

What parts does the Mipi adapter revD use?

24 parts. 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 Mipi adapter revD KiCad files?

From the SebasKitten/SonySwitchUp repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/mipi-adapter/revD/mipi_adapter_revD.kicad_pcb and its schematic hardware/mipi-adapter/revD/mipi_adapter_revD.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Mipi adapter revD design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask SebasKitten before reusing the design.
