@haskal looking further at eli.gladman.cc/blog/2020/06/23 I think I should be able to guesstimate the size pretty well as NVMe is standardised, will let you know about any project updates

@linear boop! I would like to take a look at desigining a lil' pcb for this :3

ahh more interesting pcb project ideas on the TL :P

@linear also hm interesting, misskey does mentions wrong, appearing as social.pixie.town instead of pixie.town (webfinger redirect)

that flat-flex (friday :thounking:) cable doesn't look happy at all either

@haskal like, i would look into this but I'd need some measurements of the slot because it's unfindable?

tbh i hope someone proves me wrong on this thread but i kinda doubt it,,,

the state of open hardware stuff is real fuckin sad in general tbqh, you can call your shit that even with just gerbers+schema, you can keep your actually usable design source fully private and/or in proprietary $112489138 garbageware

literally the only board files linked on the wiki page are **jpeg** screenshots of gerbers for the irrelevant USB to eMMC converter..

this design is from 2019-09-05 *surely* they would've had time to publish shit by now

Show thread

why publish just silkscreen layers??? what's the point in that??

shit i recognized the brand by datasheet layout (Hirose)

more realistic demonstration, it takes a single round pcb design like img1, and according to lots of options (x, y, padding, radius) turns it into a panel as seen in img2

My Kicad panelizer is now available as a very nice website where you can just copy-paste the kicad board you want to panelize, set the options, and get the panel back
