Yin-Yang: common questions

What microcontroller does the Yin-Yang use?

The Yin-Yang is built around the ATtiny85-20SU, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the Yin-Yang PCB?

The Yin-Yang measures 49.8 × 49.8 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Yin-Yang?

41 components, from 16 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Yin-Yang design files?

From the 0101shift/Yin-Yang repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Yin-Yang design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with 0101shift. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the Yin-Yang without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug AVR/Arduino firmware against it before you order a PCB.
