About the Vik universal PCB

Vik universal is an open source PCB design by sadekbaroudi, published on GitHub under the CERN-OHL-P-2.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 44.5 × 43 mm, with 150 components from 5 distinct parts.

By type, the board carries 146 jumpers, 2 connectors and 2 resistors.

From the project

This is a simple pcb that allows you to connect any series of up to 12 pin headers to a VIK connector, in any order.

This is a simple pcb that allows you to connect any series of up to 12 pin headers to a VIK connector, in any order.

You solder 1 (and ONLY 1) jumper per row, and it connects it to the corresponding VIK signal.

For PCB fabrication, you can use the files in the production folder.

gerbers.zip - the file used to fabricate the pcb bom.csv - used for PCBA. You can also use the part numbers in this file to look up the exact parts as lcsc.com * positions.csv - used for PCBA
