Overview

Tessel v2 is an open-source printed circuit board by tessel, from the tessel/t2-hardware repository on GitHub. It is a 4-layer board of 58.4 × 68.6 mm with 315 parts on 253 nets, routed with 5,637 tracks and 688 vias.

It is built around the FE1.1, S25FL256SAGNFI001 and MT9700, with the 2450BL15B100E, BLM21PG221SN1D and DMG2305UX among its other parts. Its parts include 136 capacitors, 85 resistors, 24 diodes, 14 connectors and 13 inductors. It belongs with the SAM D and SAM boards of this library.

KiCAD design files for the Tessel 2

To download TM's KiCAD library, containing all the schematic symbols and footprints, run this command:

text
git submodule update --init

Notes

  • We use the daily builds of KiCAD (for Ubuntu and OS X) and you should too!
  • As a general rule, do not assume that schematic, layout, and manufacturing exports were kept abreast on each commit. Do a fresh export (or use tagged releases) if you intend to actually send off gerbers.

Troubleshooting

No components rendered in 3D viewer (OS X): You may need to change the environment variable for the 3D model path. Run this command and reset KiCad; this fix will work for the duration of your logged in session on the computer:

text
launchctl setenv KISYS3DMOD "/Library/Application Support/kicad/packages3d"

Questions

How big is the Tessel v2 PCB?

It measures 58.4 × 68.6 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Tessel v2 use?

315 parts, built around the FE1.1, S25FL256SAGNFI001, MT9700 and 2450BL15B100E. 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 Tessel v2 KiCad files?

From the tessel/t2-hardware repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is tessel-v2.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Tessel v2 design in my own project?

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