Boards are in!

Here’s a couple of pics of the board, I’ve gone with an OSP finish instead of HASL, probably gonna be better for BGA soldering, but @ a cost of shelf-life. On well, can’t have everything. On the plus side, with some lead-free solder I’ll be RoHS compliant.

Parts should arrive sometime next week. Looking forward to populating and testing this baby out.

Rev02 In the works.

Shall let the pictures do the talking, working on getting USB functionality right on the board (no need for the platform cable), as well as a better front end this time round.

Here’s a render of the board.
