Sensor: common questions

What microcontroller does the Sensor use?

The Sensor is built around the RASPBERRY_PI_2_3, from the Raspberry Pi family.

How big is the Sensor PCB?

The Sensor measures 64.8 × 62 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Sensor?

61 components, from 37 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 Sensor design files?

From the chukhanhhoang/SoftRoboticSetupFesto 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 Sensor 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 Sensor 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.
