Dcc Decoder Devel Board: common questions

What microcontroller does the Dcc Decoder Devel Board use?

The Dcc Decoder Devel Board is built around the ATMEGA328P-AU, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the Dcc Decoder Devel Board?

The Dcc Decoder Devel Board measures 78 × 54.3 mm, has 4 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Dcc Decoder Devel Board?

34 components, from 24 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 Dcc Decoder Devel Board design files?

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

Can I use the Dcc Decoder Devel Board design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which danielvilas chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Dcc Decoder Devel Board 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.
