Here is the latest schematic that is actually being built

0af96005-8757-4221-8bec-cfd0c5d3119f.pdf

I may have posted an older one before which did have a fault on the DVDD supply

Hope the boards will be with me in about a week and if all OK will post the gerbers then

That is a nice minimalistic circuit for the RP2350B. Be really great to see the impact of this DVDD circuit….

The boards at JLC are just waiting pickup by DHL so hopefully with me in the next 3 or 4 days.

In the meantime I've done a "value-engineered" version of the board. This removes the power switch and reset controller, replaces a couple of "extended range" resistors with pairs of series "basic" components and replaces the boot and reset switches with the only "basic" switch. Together these changes will reduce the cost of the boards significantly.

I will be uploading both sets of gerbers once I've tested the received boards

That looks really good Peter,

I am optimistic that it will be fully functional when they arrive.

Well done

Mick

Works perfectly

Next job to fit a PSRAM and see if it affects the overclock.
Currently I've got the DVDD set to 1.35V which is less than I use with the internal switch mode supply.
Once all sorted I'll start a new thread with a sensible title to post the gerbers

Hi Peter,

Is it essential to have option heartbeat. GP25 is not affected by "pico off" right ?
Only GP23,GP24, GP29.

Now we are cooking

heartbeat defaults to off for RP2350B

That would make sense. GP25 doesn't need to be controlled by PICO OFF as it has its own options.

hehe - Nice one Peter. :)
