Expansion Bay Developer Program

That is the point of this module.

@nrp

We have a small quantity of riser boards now that adapt the Expansion Bay connector to PCIe. You can use the same form as before to request one.

Not if you want to be able to talk to the EC or use the voltage out and vsys in, like for a battery. Or does that include an EC?

Hm, resurrecting this thread, @nrp, is there any breakout/dev kit expansion bay board that can fit in the non-GPU expansion bay, or similar, preferably with a way to connect wiring out the back, so that we could experiment hooked up to the interposer as a way to prototype?

This should be a relatively straightforward board to design if you start from the reference PCB: ExpansionBay/PCB Reference Design at main · FrameworkComputer/ExpansionBay · GitHub

So what you’re saying is… build your own basic expansion board to do a breakout and do it all yourself?
