N64xCart-Dumper: common questions
What microcontroller does the N64xCart-Dumper use?
The N64xCart-Dumper is built around the RP2040, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.
How big is the N64xCart-Dumper PCB?
The N64xCart-Dumper measures 90 × 60 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the N64xCart-Dumper?
41 components, from 25 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the N64xCart-Dumper design files?
From the Auroxin/N64xCart-Dumper repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the N64xCart-Dumper design in my own project?
It is published under Custom license, which limits how it may be reused; read the license before building on it.
Can I test firmware for the N64xCart-Dumper 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.
