From the project

This repo is intended to share plans for a super cheap backplane. It is using KiCad and it fits the 100x100mm default of JLCPCB

This repo is intended to share plans for a super cheap DIY backplane. It is using KiCad and it fits the 100x100mm default of JLCPCB

Example: 100x100mm PCB x10pcs costs 15€ delivered to europe as the time of writing this. So 1 Backplane PCB costs just 1.50€ plus components. It uses 1.6mm 2 layer FR4.

DON'T - Do not enable 3.3V or 5V generation, if your power input already supplies it! Check with the Voltage OK LEDs first! Otherwise the tiny buck converters try to provide 5V and 3.3V to your PC, which they cannot handle and they WILL overheat, potentially with permanent damage to the PCB. -…
