QuectoDrive: common questions

What microcontroller does the QuectoDrive use?

The QuectoDrive is built around the ATtiny1616-M, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the QuectoDrive PCB?

The QuectoDrive measures 15.2 × 12.1 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the QuectoDrive?

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

Where can I download the QuectoDrive design files?

From the edatki/QuectoDrive repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the QuectoDrive design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the QuectoDrive 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.
