About the CircuitBoardV2 PCB
CircuitBoardV2 is an open source PCB design by Technologyman00, published on GitHub under the GPL-3.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 57.4 × 132.3 mm, with 48 components from 4 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the TXS0108EPWR. By type, the board carries 42 connectors and 5 ICs.
From the project
An Open Source RGB Controller with enough ports to light up the sky. No processing load on your computer either!
The whole Idea behind this project was to create a much better RGB controller than the controllers or motherboard software I have seen. Currently It has already met that goal as it can play any pattern for many LEDs and up to individual 40 devices. I am still working on the user interface and many qualities of life things, but the main functionality does work. HOWEVER, it will need a PCB made to power all the LEDs as a Teensy cannot power that many safely.
