Overview

Model c is an open-source printed circuit board by TrojanPinata, from the TrojanPinata/Model-C repository on GitHub, published under the GPL-3.0 licence. It is a 2-layer board of 82 × 144.9 mm with 171 parts on 166 nets, routed with 1,475 tracks and 361 vias.

It is built around the RP2040, HT16K33 and TPS63070RNMR, with the W25Q16JVUXIQ, TPD1E05U06DPY and TPS2115APW among its other parts. Its parts include 42 capacitors, 32 resistors, 25 diodes, 21 switches and 12 ICs. It belongs with the RP2040 boards of this library.

Why does this exist?

I am leaving this design here because I think it is a good representation of where I started from and what I am capable now.

This project has been refined and I feel the current design is much more cost efficient and useful.

Questions

How big is the Model c PCB?

It measures 82 × 144.9 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the Model c use?

171 parts, built around the RP2040, HT16K33, TPS63070RNMR and W25Q16JVUXIQ. 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 Model c KiCad files?

From the TrojanPinata/Model-C repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is pcb/model-c.kicad_pcb and its schematic case/switchplate/switchplate.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Model c design in my own project?

Its repository publishes it under the GPL-3.0 licence: you may reuse it on that licence's terms (keep the author's notice, and for a copyleft licence share your changes alike).
