I`m back on the project, first board has some routing issues. I hope in a few days I can repair the problem, I will post 3D file when it will be functional. After test and if its ok I will post a link to PCBway-project, if you want to get one. ---

I recently found out that the cm5 has a built in rtc that just needs a battery wired up. It would be a great feature to have a battery module on the board. ---

Yess, it has. I have already implemented the original rtc battery connector. ---

Hi @neocska92 any update on your “uConsole cm5 mainboard“? I’m very interested in this project. Thank you in advance. ---

Hello, @neocska92! @QuantumKraken in “[Fixing uConsole power delivery limitations with CM5](https://forum.clockworkpi.com/t/fixing-uconsole-power-delivery-limitations-with-cm5/19119/16)” replaced a capacitor on the mainboard and looks like that fixed the issue of keyboard disconnecting when plugging a device to the USB-A port. Would it be possible to include a similar capacitor upgrade in your design? It looks fairly simple and seems to solve the power-delivery limit. ---

Awesome project @neocska92, especially if you are going to also expose both USB3.0 pins in the mini pcie (side) connector. This will open up a whole new possibilities for the expansion boards. ---

Slowly I’m working my way to repair signal issues. and a bunch of forgotten traces. Sorry for taking this long. When I will have a less messy(spaghetti) board i will post fotos. ---
