@kunichiko Would you mind adding PDF schematics and/or pictures to your hardware repo? I think this project is eligible for a PID code. They have hardware sources, and a detailed writeup on how to use them. Given the opportunity, I would accept this. ✅️ |
…are) The project was relicensed away from a blanket MIT. MIT is a software licence and does not map onto board designs, so the hardware repository is now CERN-OHL-S-2.0 and the firmware and app are Apache-2.0. Also broadened the Bridge description: the firmware targets ESP32-C6 / S3 / C3, and the wireless board uses a XIAO ESP32-C6, not only the S3.

Thanks for looking at this, @cnlohr — and for ch32v003fun, which is what got me into the CH32 family to begin with. I've added documentation to the hardware repo. One thing to explain up front: these boards are designed in atopile, a text-based EDA where the circuit is written as code and the netlist plus the KiCad layout are generated from it. There is no Block diagrams — the closest equivalent to a schematic. Every block, every net that leaves a block, the power domains and the full pin map on one A4 sheet, kept 1:1 with the
PCB layer plots (PDF) — silkscreen / copper / fab, straight from Pictures — photos of both assembled boards next to the 3D-printed shells they live in, plus 3D renders of each layout front and back, are on the repo front page and at the top of each board's README. KiCanvas links are there too if you'd rather click around the layout itself, and the Gerber / BOM / CPL I sent to JLCPCB are in each board's One more change since you commented: I moved the project off a blanket MIT. MIT is a software licence and doesn't map onto board designs, so the hardware repo is now CERN-OHL-S-2.0 and the firmware and app are Apache-2.0 (the protocol spec is CC BY 4.0). The Status, so the repo isn't misleading: Happy to add anything else that would help. |
Requesting PIDs
0x1209:0x9210for Mimic X and0x1209:0x9211for Mimic X Bridge.kunichikoorg page.Licensing note. This PR originally said MIT for both repos. Since then I moved the project off a blanket MIT: MIT is a software licence and doesn't map onto board designs, so the hardware repo is now CERN-OHL-S-2.0 and the firmware and app are Apache-2.0 (the protocol spec is CC BY 4.0). The
license:field in both PID entries has been updated to match. The vendor-supplied symbols, footprints and 3D models underparts/are third-party and are carved out inNOTICE; datasheet PDFs are no longer redistributed and are linked from each board'sparts/README.mdinstead.
