Synmidi: common questions

What microcontroller does the Synmidi use?

The Synmidi is built around the ARDUINO_NANO_V3.X, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the Synmidi PCB?

The Synmidi measures 40 × 218 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Synmidi?

91 components, from 38 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 Synmidi design files?

From the Bad-Dog-Designs/Ospray-8 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 Synmidi design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its GPL-2.0 license, which Bad-Dog-Designs chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Synmidi 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.
