Raspberry Pi Zero W (original): common questions

What microcontroller does the Raspberry Pi Zero W (original) use?

The Raspberry Pi Zero W (original) is built around the RASPBERRY_PI_2_3, from the Raspberry Pi family.

How big is the Raspberry Pi Zero W (original) PCB?

The Raspberry Pi Zero W (original) measures 65 × 30 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Raspberry Pi Zero W (original)?

52 components, from 25 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 Raspberry Pi Zero W (original) design files?

From the chukhanhhoang/SoftRoboticSetupFesto repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the BOM; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Raspberry Pi Zero W (original) design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the Raspberry Pi Zero W (original) without the hardware?

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