What is the Matrix PCB Format?

No it's not based off a '90s movie, but rather the Matrix PCB format is simply a collection of all possible commands and capabilities grouped into an organized text file. Yes, the matrix PCB format is simply a text file that can be edited with any text editor. We decided to use text files for the Matrix format, because text files are easy for everyone to understand, and portable across every OS platform. 


  • All Matrix Files must end with the file extension (*.fm6)
  • Note: Matrix files can also be inserted into other matrix files, to form a hierarchy and provide extremely dynamic capabilities -- while keeping the files small, and eliminating redundancies.
  • The Matrix PCB format is updated and maintained by Numerical Innovations, Inc.
