Over three months, Cyao developed foundational hardware projects for the hackclub/OnBoard repository, delivering five new features including the Lipoboard, UwUstatus OLED Display Breakout, Superflat PG1316 Ultrathin Keyboard, ICeDev FPGA Breakout, and Icepi Zero platform. Cyao established reusable component libraries and structured KiCad projects, focusing on rapid prototyping and clear documentation. The work involved detailed schematic capture, PCB layout, and asset packaging, enabling scalable hardware development and streamlined design reviews. By leveraging skills in hardware design, PCB layout, and component library management, Cyao provided robust, version-controlled assets that support ongoing hardware validation and future product iterations without reported defects.

May 2025: Delivered the Icepi Zero hardware platform design for OnBoard, establishing a foundational hardware architecture for the product line. The key deliverable is the end-to-end schematic and PCB layout for USB-C, LEDs, power rails (resistors, capacitors), ECP5 FPGA, SDRAM, flash memory, and oscillator, including precise placement and interconnections on the PCB. This work enables rapid prototyping, hardware validation, and planned firmware/FPGA integration. The effort is tracked under a single commit adding Icepi Zero (#1744). No explicit bug fixes documented this month; focus was on hardware design delivery and project readiness.

April 2025 monthly summary for hackclub/OnBoard. Focused on hardware prototyping readiness and asset packaging. Delivered three initial hardware projects with comprehensive assets (README, PCB layout, schematic, gerber/binary files), established KiCad project scaffolding and part libraries, and documented design considerations in project READMEs. These assets enable rapid prototyping, open hardware sharing, and scalable workflows for future iterations. No explicit bug fixes were documented in this scope; emphasis was on delivering complete hardware artifacts and clear documentation to support business and technical goals.
