BeagleBone hardware design files in usable format?

General Discussion

Hi,

it is really great the hardware design files for BBB and BBG are available to the public. Unfortunately they both come in OrCAD format, an layout design application which is extremely expensive (so nothing a hobbyist can pay).

So…is there any chance to get one of both deisgns (or both) in a somewhat more common format? Like KiCAD (which is available for free) or EAGLE (which has or had a cheap variant for makers and students)?

Thanks!

We did a conversion of BeagleBone AI into KiCAD. See https://github.com/beagleboard/beaglebone-ai.

There were many community conversions of BeagleBone Black. I cannot confirm the functionality of any of them.
