About the ASM2464PD-test PCB

ASM2464PD-test is an open source PCB design by a-little-wifi, published on GitHub. It is a 4-layer board measuring 81.8 × 19 mm, with 93 components from 26 distinct parts.

Other key parts include the SPI_SOIC-8 and SPI_DFN-8. By type, the board carries 42 resistors, 21 capacitors, 16 diodes, 10 connectors, 3 ICs and 1 crystal.

Messing around with ASM2464PD symbol and footprint

The ASM2464PD is meant for USB4 (or Thunderbolt 3 and USB3.x too, afaik) to NVMe SSD enclosures, and the ASM2464PDX is meant for USB4/TB to general PCIe devices such as GPUs. I've read that the PD one also works for general PCIe devices but it's not officially supported. An AX210 wifi card worked on an ASM2464PD (non-X) enclosure for me, haven't tried GPUs yet.
