Byteworker: common questions

What microcontroller does the Byteworker use?

The Byteworker is built around the ATMEGA16M1, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the Byteworker PCB?

The Byteworker measures 34 × 34 mm and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Byteworker?

61 components, from 28 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Byteworker design files?

From the Bytewerk/byteworker-kicad repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Byteworker design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its CC-BY-SA-4.0 license, which Bytewerk chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Byteworker 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.
