SA818 Breakout
About the SA818 Breakout
SA818 Breakout is an open source PCB design by brucemack, published on GitHub under the GPL-3.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 56 × 49 mm, with 14 components from 12 distinct parts.
Other key parts include the TLV9164PWR. By type, the board carries 7 capacitors, 3 connectors, 2 inductors, 1 IC and 1 resistor.
It belongs with the rf & radio and dev boards & breakouts designs in this gallery.
From the project
An open source EchoLink/AllStarLink implementation that runs on a simple microcontroller.
Is it possible to build a full EchoLink® node using a $6 microcontroller? I'm not completely sure, but let's find out. The goal of this project is to create the smallest, cheapest way to put a radio onto the EchoLink network. If you are new to the world of EchoLink please see the official website for complete information. EchoLink is a peer-to-peer VoIP (voice over IP) network used to link amateur radio stations across the Internet.
