It is true that you will not find the complete schematic of Raspberry Pi 5. It is far better to use a Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 (CM4) or CM5. These modules have schematics available and use a standard connector format. If you want to stick to Raspberry Pi 5, you can still design a panelized PCB incorporating the Pi 5 by using the available connector footprints and pinouts. You will need to include the 40-Pin GPIO header, Camera & Display Connectors and Fan & RTC headers. You can search for the footprints of the connectors below:Hi! I am new here, and I am seeking help!
I am designing an AI-related project that combines different PCB boards with the Raspberry Pi 5 into one connected PCB board device via penalization. However, because the Raspberry Pi 5 is not open hardware, it is nearly impossible to obtain schematics of the board. The PCB design software I am using is KiCAD version 8. Is it possible to get schematics or symbols for at least partial connectors or connections frequently needed or used in the penalization process?
Thanks so much!
