Hi, Everyone I am final year student and want to design a same SM1000 hardware. I am working on a hardware design of SM1000. I am following the version F available online on GitHub Rowetel. I face some problems in selecting components because components used in SM1000 previously not available in my country (Pakistan). Or some of the components not clearly find on internet. Anyone here who guide me to found alternate components or the same. Your reply is highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
