hardware source and manufacturing trail
Alex Glow's June 15 public archive includes a KiCad 9 project, custom footprint library, Gerber CAM outputs, drill files, and job file for the badge. It provides a useful design/fabrication trail but does not prove a completed build run, final bill of materials, assembly process, test result, or event-issued unit.

PCB design source
Commit-pinned KiCad 9 board source for the CR2032 holder, LED, button, slide-switch, resistor, SAO-labelled headers, mounting holes, and expansion-through-hole design surface. It is not a final assembled-unit or safety-validation record.
Badge: Avnet FAE Institute 2026 PCB Badge
creator documentation
Commit-pinned README identifying the project as an Avnet FAEI 2026 event badge, linking the project page, and pointing to the KiCad project plus front/back repository images.
Badge: Avnet FAE Institute 2026 PCB Badge
creator-linked project page
Alex Glow's linked Hackster project describes the badge as a cyber-gem and a platform for hardware experimentation. It is creator-published project context, not an Avnet allocation or final-production record.
Badge: Avnet FAE Institute 2026 PCB Badge
manufacturing source
Commit-pinned repository tree holding CAM Gerbers, drill files, job file, and the source ZIP. It supports a manufacturable design trail without proving that this exact revision was fabricated, assembled, or issued at the event.
Badge: Avnet FAE Institute 2026 PCB Badge
public hardware-source repository
Commit-pinned public source archive whose description and README identify an Avnet FAE Institute 2026 PCB badge commission. It contains KiCad project material, a custom footprint library, Gerbers, and repository images, but no unit-level production or handoff ledger.
Badge: Avnet FAE Institute 2026 PCB Badge
source license
Commit-pinned MIT License naming Alex Glow as copyright holder for the public repository source. It supports source access but does not independently identify a selected branded raster or documentary photo as a cleared local hero image.

vendor event calendar
Toradex's public event listing names an Avnet FAE Institute Showcase in Phoenix on July 14, 2026. It corroborates the dated Phoenix technical-event context but does not describe the badge.

vendor event context
Nexperia's public company update names Avnet FAE Institute 2026 in Phoenix, July 12-17, and frames it as hands-on technical training for engineers and field application experts. It establishes event context, not badge allocation, source ownership, or production.

Primary board-design source for the CR2032 holder, through-hole LED, one 6 mm button, SPDT slide switch, resistor, two SAO-labelled header footprints, mounting holes, and through-hole expansion surface. It does not prove component population, final BOM, electrical behavior, or fabricated-unit parity.
