From the project
An Evaluation Board for the ATmega644(A) Microcontoller
This is an evaluation board for the ATmega644(A). It is inspired by (and compatible with) the evaluation board used in the lab course "Praktikum Systemprogrammierung" in the computer science curriculum at RWTH Aachen.
- A richly illustrated Guide Book with everything you need to know to build and use the board - A KiCAD project with the Schematic and a PCB layout, ready to be manufactured - The bill of materials - Drivers for the LCD and the serial port - Test code for testing and debugging the board

EvaBoard: common questions
What microcontroller does the EvaBoard use?
The EvaBoard is built around the ATmega644-20P, from the AVR/Arduino family.
How big is the EvaBoard PCB?
The EvaBoard measures 160 × 100 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the EvaBoard?
84 components, from 48 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the EvaBoard design files?
From the 7vgn/EvaBoard repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the EvaBoard design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with 7vgn. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the EvaBoard 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.
