Available to anyone. It includes interface schematics (how connectors work) and full 3D CAD files for the chassis. Professional Access (NDA required):
Unlike most major manufacturers who guard their circuit diagrams as trade secrets, Framework has taken significant steps to make its technical documentation accessible. FrameworkComputer/Framework-Laptop-16 路 GitHub framework laptop schematics
Rumors in the open-source hardware community suggest that Framework is exploring releasing board layouts (KiCAD source files) for older generations after they reach end-of-sale. If that happens, a hobbyist could theoretically design a drop-in replacement mainboard using a RISC-V processor鈥攚hile reusing the original Framework chassis and screen. The schematic is the first draft of that future. Available to anyone
The availability of is a stepping stone toward fully open-source laptops. Currently, Framework is the only mainstream laptop manufacturer with a score of 10/10 on iFixit鈥檚 repairability index specifically for documentation. The availability of is a stepping stone toward
: Schematics showing the physical dimensions for 3D printing custom shells or mounting the Mainboard in a custom case (like a cyberdeck). 3. How to Use These Schematics Schematics are primarily used for three tasks: Troubleshooting
