Minus main: common questions

What microcontroller does the Minus main use?

The Minus main is built around the arduino_shield, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the Minus main PCB?

The Minus main measures 2.5 × 2.5 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Minus main?

10 components, from 9 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the Minus main design files?

From the cogip/pcb-main repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Minus main design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the Minus main 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.
