Livestock monitor: common questions

What microcontroller does the Livestock monitor use?

The Livestock monitor is built around the ATMEGA328P-AU, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the Livestock monitor PCB?

The Livestock monitor measures 32 × 24 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Livestock monitor?

12 components, from 10 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Livestock monitor design files?

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

Can I use the Livestock monitor design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the Livestock monitor 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.
