Aerolinkers hw: common questions

What microcontroller does the Aerolinkers hw use?

The Aerolinkers hw is built around the NRF5340-QKAA-AB0-R, from the Nordic nRF family.

How big is the Aerolinkers hw PCB?

The Aerolinkers hw measures 36 × 36 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Aerolinkers hw?

105 components, from 37 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Aerolinkers hw design files?

From the aerolinkers/aerolinkers-hw repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Aerolinkers hw design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the Aerolinkers hw without the hardware?

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