Assemble v3: common questions
What microcontroller does the Assemble v3 use?
The Assemble v3 is built around the XIAO-nRF52840-SMD, from the Nordic nRF family.
How big is the Assemble v3 PCB?
The Assemble v3 measures 267 × 107 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Assemble v3?
115 components, from 10 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the Assemble v3 design files?
From the derui/planetes42 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Assemble v3 design in my own project?
Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which derui chose for the repository.
Can I test firmware for the Assemble v3 without the hardware?
Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug Nordic nRF firmware against it before you order a PCB.
