These are KiCad renders of the ordered board, in the colours ordered: blue mask, white silkscreen and silver lead-free HASL pads. KiCad has no 3D model of the HCTL receptacle, so the connector shown is a GCT USB4105, a 16-pin receptacle of the same size and pad layout. The render

These are KiCad renders of the ordered board, in the colours ordered: blue mask, white silkscreen and silver lead-free HASL pads. KiCad has no 3D model of the HCTL receptacle, so the connector shown is a GCT USB4105, a 16-pin receptacle of the same size and pad layout. The renders come from a scratch copy of the board; the files below are untouched.

3D models for CAD: 3d/key-c-P2.step is the assembled board, and 3d/key-c-P2-board-only.step is the bare board. They import into Onshape as-is. Both come from the same scratch copy, with the same GCT stand-in connector at J1's origin. The origin…
