KiCad Project: common questions

What microcontroller does the KiCad Project use?

The KiCad Project is built around the ProMicro, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the KiCad Project PCB?

The KiCad Project measures 257.2 × 95.3 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the KiCad Project?

109 components, from 8 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the KiCad Project design files?

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

Can I use the KiCad Project design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which CatGirlGF chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the KiCad Project 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.
