Overview

Ais usbc is an open-source printed circuit board by xenbedded, from the xenbedded/pixel-c-support repository on GitHub. It is a 4-layer board of 49.2 × 28 mm with 61 parts on 88 nets, routed with 1,262 tracks and 120 vias.

It is built around the ATTINY48-MMU, USB2512B/M2 and 74HC1G04GW, with the TLV70233DBV, TS3USB30RSW and DRTR5V0U2SR among its other parts. Its parts include 28 resistors, 14 capacitors, 7 ICs, 4 connectors and 1 diode. It belongs with the AVR (ATmega, ATtiny) boards of this library.

README

hardware/debug_bridge_r2/README.md

Pixel C debug bridge, rev2

Debugging device for use with Pixel C. Supports the following configurations:

  • Pixel C as host: Configures the Pixel C to act as a USB host, then breaks out two host ports via a hub. Useful for demos, for connecting keyboard and mouse, etc.

  • Pixel C as debug device: Configures the Pixel C in debug mode, and joins the main device port and the debug port via a second hub to a single convenient micro-B debug connector.

Revision 2 is a complete reimplementation, and is still untested at this point.

Questions

How big is the Ais usbc PCB?

It measures 49.2 × 28 mm and has 4 copper layers, 0.8 mm thick.

What parts does the Ais usbc use?

61 parts, built around the ATTINY48-MMU, USB2512B/M2, 74HC1G04GW and TLV70233DBV. 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 Ais usbc KiCad files?

From the xenbedded/pixel-c-support repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is hardware/debug_bridge_r2/ais-usbc.kicad_pcb. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the Ais usbc design in my own project?

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