About the Cameo PCB
Cameo is an open source PCB design by stepleton, published on GitHub under the Unlicense license. It is a board measuring 55 × 35 mm, with 56 components from 9 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the TXS0108E_PW_20. By type, the board carries 32 jumpers, 17 resistors, 4 capacitors, 2 ICs and 1 connector.
From the project
3.3V ⇄ 5V level adapter for PocketBeagle, and an application or two
is a peripheral cape circuit board that allows the PocketBeagle single-board computer (which uses 3.3V digital signals) to interface with 5V digital logic. It is built around two Texas Instruments TXS0108EPWR or TXB0108PWR 8-bit bidirectional voltage level translator ICs. Sixteen digital I/O signal lines are available.
Cameo is optimised for applications that take advantage of the two PRU-ICSS real-time coprocessors built into the chip-like hybrid circuit that powers the PocketBeagle (a TI AM3358 SoC/Octavo OSD3358 SiP). The digital I/O lines that pass through Cameo include all fourteen…
