About the YAPoco PCB

YAPoco is an open source PCB design by nataliethenerd, published on GitHub under the CC-BY-SA-4.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 69.4 × 114.3 mm, with 69 components from 38 distinct parts.

Other key parts include the CGB SRAM and PST9135N. By type, the board carries 35 capacitors, 7 resistors, 3 diodes, 2 ICs, 2 connectors and 2 fuses.

It belongs with the retro computing and power & battery designs in this gallery.

From the project

Full pocket colour PCB using the original parts

You can support me on Ko-Fi or by buying the board directly from me my store

I also occasionally sell pre built PCBs on my store.

This board uses all the parts of an original Game Boy Color minus the IR and original screen circuit. Most parts are in the same spot, however if you are having trouble you can check the interactive BOM

The thumbwheel circuit can be connected to an OSD screen to control brightness. The two touch pad wires and be conneced to the pads labelled ↑↓ on the back top left side of the board. The select, A and B pads are easy connection pads for the screen also.
