Nrf9151-tracker: common questions

What microcontroller does the Nrf9151-tracker use?

The Nrf9151-tracker is built around the W25Q128JVPIQ, from the Nordic nRF family.

How big is the Nrf9151-tracker PCB?

The Nrf9151-tracker measures 50.8 × 22.9 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.56718 mm thick.

How many components are on the Nrf9151-tracker?

96 components, from 42 distinct parts, with part numbers taken from the project's own BOM. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Nrf9151-tracker design files?

From the chgpalmer/nrf9151-tracker repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout, the schematic and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Nrf9151-tracker design in my own project?

The repository has no license, so all rights stay with chgpalmer. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.

Can I test firmware for the Nrf9151-tracker without the hardware?

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