Arduino aprs tracker: common questions
What microcontroller does the Arduino aprs tracker use?
The Arduino aprs tracker is built around the TP4056, from the AVR/Arduino family.
How big is the Arduino aprs tracker PCB?
The Arduino aprs tracker measures 70 × 55 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Arduino aprs tracker?
21 components, from 19 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the Arduino aprs tracker design files?
From the billygr/arduino-aprs-tracker repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Arduino aprs tracker design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with billygr. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the Arduino aprs tracker 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.
