About the Breakout

Breakout is an open source Raspberry Pi PCB design by bartman081523, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 92.7 × 61.3 mm, with 23 components from 9 distinct parts.

Its main chip is the Raspberry_Pi_2_3, from the Raspberry Pi family. By type, the board carries 13 resistors and 8 transistors.

It belongs with the dev boards & breakouts designs in this gallery.

From the project

This is software, content, and hardware schematics for my project called "PPUppy," which I used to give a few talks in 2018 and a Youtube video called something like "Reverse emulating the NES to give it SUPER POWERS!" (also, a long "Making Of" exegesis).

There's a hodgepodge of different licenses in here.

In images/ there are some items for which I don't own the copyright, but which I believe are covered by fair use. (In particular, the size of the excerpt is very small):

Breakout: common questions

What microcontroller does the Breakout use?

The Breakout is built around the Raspberry_Pi_2_3, from the Raspberry Pi family.

How big is the Breakout?

The Breakout measures 92.7 × 61.3 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Breakout?

23 components, from 9 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Breakout design files?

From the bartman081523/tom7misc-svn repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Breakout design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with bartman081523. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the Breakout without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug Raspberry Pi firmware against it before you order a PCB.
