A project log for Not Quite Useless Raspberry Pi Replacement

Make a Raspberry Pi replacement using a Cypress Semiconductor Programmable System on a Chip (PSOC 5)

Note that that rev 1 PCBs I ordered are missing one trace from the PSoC to the Raspberry Pi I/O header. I've added the trace to the design files so it will be in Rev 2 of the board.

I ordered parts. The one part I was short on was the USB micro connector. I found one of the default parts in KiCad have four through hole mounting points and I think that could be a lot more durable than the ones which just surface mount and have a tendency to come off the card with frequent removal of the USB cable.

Other than the one trace everything else seems to be in order. We'll see when the boards get here how they operate. Given that JLCPCB delivered in less than a week with my 3-chip Z80 last week, I'm hopeful that the cards will be here quickly.
