Impressive!
Out of lack of understanding: what does this new knowledge allow? Will it allow open-source developers to write better drivers? Or does it allow the making clones? Or nothing in particular?
- bobmcnamara 1y agoThis helps placing an RP1 on a PCI-E card.
- ACCount37 1y agoThis is a PCB layout and board schematics. So this helps component level repair (uneconomical in first world) and diagnosing some of the weirder failures or hardware limitations. It also helps make a stronger case that RPI Foundation should have released this in the first place. You could use this to make clones - but only if you could source at least the BCM2712 SoC, preferably RP1 too. I can't imagine that happening in practice.

- jonp888 1y agoIt has. At one point HardKernel "found" some Broadcom chips and made a one-off unauthorized batch of the Pi-compatible Odroid-W. Rpi weren't amused :)
- wkat4242 1y agoYeah they've become a real commercial outfit now. You could see this already during the shortage period, they always prioritised system integrators. I stay away from them now. It was nice while it lasted.
