Slaveboard
About the Slaveboard PCB
Slaveboard is an open source RISC-V PCB design by Magnetile, published on GitHub under the MIT license. It is a 4-layer board measuring 90.5 × 87.8 mm, with 19 components from 3 distinct parts.
Its main chip is the CH32V003FXPX, from the RISC-V family. By type, the board carries 16 diodes, 2 capacitors and 1 IC.
It belongs with the iot & wireless and power & battery designs in this gallery.
From the project
A open source modular wireless input device. Based on nRF52840
Open source modular wireless macropad system
Magnetile is a modular wireless input device. A central hub connects to interchangeable input tiles - mechanical keys, rotary encoders, sliders, display keys - via magnetic pogo pin connectors. The hub presents as a single BLE HID device to the host. Everything is open source.
Tiles are hot-swappable modules. Each tile has its own small MCU communicating over I²C. The hub aggregates all input and handles the BLE stack. A single LiPo cell in the hub powers the entire system through the pogo pins.

Slaveboard: common questions
What microcontroller does the Slaveboard use?
The Slaveboard is built around the CH32V003FXPX, from the RISC-V family.
How big is the Slaveboard PCB?
The Slaveboard measures 90.5 × 87.8 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Slaveboard?
19 components, from 3 distinct parts, with part numbers taken from the project's own BOM. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the Slaveboard design files?
From the Magnetile/magnetile-hardware repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout, the schematic and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Slaveboard design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which Magnetile chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the Slaveboard without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug RISC-V firmware against it before you order a PCB.
