Linear-MVP3: common questions

What microcontroller does the Linear-MVP3 use?

The Linear-MVP3 is built around the Teensy-LC, from the NXP family.

How big is the Linear-MVP3 PCB?

The Linear-MVP3 measures 25.5 × 157.5 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Linear-MVP3?

42 components, from 14 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Linear-MVP3 design files?

From the borgel/bolton_buttons repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Linear-MVP3 design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MPL-2.0 license, which borgel chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Linear-MVP3 without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug NXP firmware against it before you order a PCB.
