Orthodox: common questions

What microcontroller does the Orthodox use?

The Orthodox is built around the ATmega32U4-A, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the Orthodox PCB?

The Orthodox measures 253.2 × 100.8 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Orthodox?

135 components, from 17 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 Orthodox design files?

From the BenjaminJAnderson/Orthodox 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 Orthodox design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the Orthodox 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.
