About the Debugger PCB
Debugger is an open source AVR/Arduino PCB design by DutchMaker, published on GitHub. It is a 2-layer board measuring 104.1 × 104.1 mm, with 7 components from 7 distinct parts.
Its main chip is the Arduino Mega2560, from the AVR/Arduino family. By type, the board carries 2 connectors, 2 switches, 1 diode and 1 resistor.
It belongs with the usb & debug tools designs in this gallery.

Debugger: common questions
What microcontroller does the Debugger use?
The Debugger is built around the Arduino Mega2560, from the AVR/Arduino family.
How big is the Debugger PCB?
The Debugger measures 104.1 × 104.1 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.
How many components are on the Debugger?
7 components, from 7 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.
Where can I download the Debugger design files?
From the DutchMaker/DM-02 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout; the links under Design files point to each one.
Can I use the Debugger design in my own project?
The repository has no license, so all rights stay with DutchMaker. Use it as a reference, and ask the author before reusing the design.
Can I test firmware for the Debugger 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.
