About the QMTechBaseBoard PCB

QMTechBaseBoard is an open source PCB design by carlosedp, published on GitHub under the MIT license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 170 × 170 mm, with 64 components from 21 distinct parts.

Other key parts include the FT4232H and RTL8211EG-VB-CG. By type, the board carries 20 diodes, 16 connectors, 14 switches and 3 ICs.

It belongs with the usb & debug tools designs in this gallery.

From the project

BaseBoard design for QMTech Kintex 7 FPGA

The objective of this project is to design a standard-size motherboard, initially in Mini-ITX size, to host dual Kintex 7 core boards from QMTech and sold thru AliExpress.

The QMTechBaseBoard directory hosts Kicad files for the board design. We are still in draft phase and plan to close the design once the desired (and possible) peripherals have been defined.
