B Series Design Blocks - PMIC and Fuel Cell

I am wondering if it would be possible to provide design blocks for Eagle PCB for the PMIC and the Fuel cell layouts by Particle?

This would help the design process if these were provided!

Yes, there will be some resources to help with that, sample board Eagle files and I can create a design block. This is a power supply test board with a bq24195 PMIC, MAX17043 fuel gauge, XCL223 3.3V regulator, micro USB, and JST-PH battery connector. There’s also one with this plus the M.2 SoM connector, RGB LED, and buttons. The examples are all two-layer boards.

Any updates to this @rickkas7? Got my B Series in the mail and eager to attempt a base board. Design blocks would help immensely.

There isn’t a design block now because there are so many input and outputs it’s hard to fit it into a block. However, there is a full design available and you can just cut the other parts out or move things around as desired.

Ok, thanks.

Used your first baseboard board file and pushed it from Eagle to Fusion 360 this morning, worked perfectly.
