Linux on Open Source Hardware
- 1. Linux at Fermilab Quarterly meeting Feb 24, 2016 Drew Fustini @pdp7 | drew@pdp7.com Embedded Systems Engineer, OSH Park “Perfect Purple PCBs” Linux on Open Source Hardware
- 2. Design is made publicly available so that anyone can study, modify, distribute, make or sell designs or hardware based on that design
- 3. Documentation required for electronics: Schematics Board Layout Editable source files for CAD software (KiCad, EAGLE, Altium, etc) Bill of Materials (BOM) Best practice: all components available in low quantity distribution
- 4.
