Hey,

Make sure that you follow the license for each of our open hardware boards. Most of our single-board computers are released under Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported (CC BY-SA 3.0) license.

In simple words - there are two things to notice if you decide to use our open-source designs as a basis for your projects:

1) Your project must also be open-source hardware, no matter if you made own changes or not (you should share the design files in a popular and accessible format).

2) You should mention that your design is based on the original design of our company "Olimex". You must give appropriate credit, provide a link to the license, and indicate if changes were made. You may do so in any reasonable manner, but not in any way that suggests the licensor endorses you or your use.

Best regards,
