Gametiger console: common questions

What microcontroller does the Gametiger console use?

The Gametiger console is built around the DMG3415, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.

How big is the Gametiger console PCB?

The Gametiger console measures 81.3 × 99.8 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Gametiger console?

70 components, from 40 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Gametiger console design files?

From the Cesarbautista10/gametiger_console repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Gametiger console design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which Cesarbautista10 chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Gametiger console without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug RP2040/RP2350 firmware against it before you order a PCB.
