About the ConvolutiedController PCB

ConvolutiedController is an open source RP2040/RP2350 PCB design by Cyclic007, published on GitHub under the Apache-2.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 103.5 × 70 mm, with 19 components from 6 distinct parts.

Its main chip is the Adafruit-Feather-RP2040, from the RP2040/RP2350 family. Other key parts include the Switch. By type, the board carries 8 diodes, 2 crystals, 1 IC and 1 module.

From the project

This is a custom controller using Alpaca for firmware and using THB001P joysticks Made with the scheme of a nentendo controller made to not get stick drift.

This is a custom controller using Alpaca for firmware and using THB001P joysticks Made with the scheme of a nentendo controller made to not get stick drift.

This controller is built for PC gameing and not console.

The controller uses an adaFruit Fether for the microcontroller.

ConvolutiedController: common questions

What microcontroller does the ConvolutiedController use?

The ConvolutiedController is built around the Adafruit-Feather-RP2040, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.

How big is the ConvolutiedController PCB?

The ConvolutiedController measures 103.5 × 70 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the ConvolutiedController?

19 components, from 6 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 ConvolutiedController design files?

From the Cyclic007/ConvolutiedController 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 ConvolutiedController design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its Apache-2.0 license, which Cyclic007 chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the ConvolutiedController 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.
