Stackable PCB platform
A modular sensor-platform layout built around aligned expansion connectors and compact PCB integration.
The project
Translate schematics into stackable boards with consistent electrical and mechanical connections.
Product highlights
- Two- to four-layer PCB layout in KiCad.
- Digital and mixed-signal routing with power and ground distribution.
- Board-to-board connector alignment, compact placement, and manufacturing-oriented layout work.
How we approached it
For hardware like the Stackable PCB platform, we treat layout, protection and testability as one problem. Component placement, power paths and connectors (KiCad, 2–4 layers) are planned with manufacturing and debugging in mind, not only for the first prototype.
Protection circuitry, test points and clear status indication make boards easier to bring up, validate and repair. Designs are prepared so a manufacturer can build and test them without guesswork.
