CAD/CAM for a GPD Pocket 3 Cellular Module
P3-cellular module is an open-source printed circuit board by themainframe, from the themainframe/p3-cellular-module repository on GitHub. It is a 4-layer board of 42 × 55.8 mm with 54 parts on 103 nets, routed with 422 tracks and 501 vias.
It is built around the USBLC6-2SC6, 06035A330KAT2A and C0603C104K3RAC, with the CL32B226MOJNNNE, CRCW060336K5FKEAC and ESD9B3.3ST5G among its other parts. Its parts include 19 capacitors, 12 resistors, 4 diodes, 3 ICs and 2 connectors.
This is a plug-in cellular module for the GPD Pocket 3. It provides LTE Cat. 4 cellular connectivity using a Quectel EC25 (or compatible) module.
It's still a little bit of a prototype at this stage, but initial results are promising!

The 53 most common of 54 parts.
It measures 42 × 55.8 mm and has 4 copper layers, 1 mm thick.
54 parts, built around the USBLC6-2SC6, 06035A330KAT2A, C0603C104K3RAC and CL32B226MOJNNNE. 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.
From the themainframe/p3-cellular-module repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is p3-cellular-module.kicad_pcb and its schematic cellular-modem.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.
Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask themainframe before reusing the design.
