Blackwing Space CM5 Raspberry Pi carrier PCB Design Review

83/100 which is pretty good but several places show power is shallow to run two cameras at the same time.

Report was $44, not expensive and look at what you get.

  • +3V3 headroom against the CM5's 600 mA, which depends on the camera load
  • the OV trip band straddling the CM5's 6.0 V absolute maximum
  • the D201 clamp above U301's 24 V rating
  • the U302 VCC capacitor omission
  • the EN worst-case turn-on at 7.12 V against a 7.00 V bus minimum.

Please don't wait until a PCB is finished and then released to get a design review.
