Scsi switcher: common questions

What microcontroller does the Scsi switcher use?

The Scsi switcher is built around the Pico, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.

How big is the Scsi switcher PCB?

The Scsi switcher measures 160 × 100 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 4.69 mm thick.

How many components are on the Scsi switcher?

75 components, from 28 distinct parts, with part numbers taken from the project's own BOM. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Scsi switcher design files?

From the akuker/hw_projects repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout, the schematic and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Scsi switcher design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its BSD-3-Clause license, which akuker chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Scsi switcher without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug RP2040/RP2350 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
