About the Prototype eval PCB

Prototype eval is an open source RP2040/RP2350 PCB design by ErichZimmer, published on GitHub under the CERN-OHL-S-2.0 license. It is a 2-layer board measuring 200 × 100 mm, with 60 components from 25 distinct parts.

Its main chip is the NCP1117-3.3_SOT223, from the RP2040/RP2350 family. Other key parts include the RP2354_80QFN, NXE2S0505MC, SN74LVC1G17DCKR and SN74LVC1T45DCKR. By type, the board carries 22 resistors, 17 capacitors, 10 ICs, 10 connectors and 1 LED.

From the project

An open source synchronizer for velocimetry of fluids.

For a more detailed specification, please read the datasheet.

If successfull, no errors or warnings should be produced. Please note that all commands to and from opensync are terminated with CRLF. Additionally, all used output terminals should be validated on an osciliscope for peace-of-mind, allthough this is not strictly necessary.

Prototype eval: common questions

What microcontroller does the Prototype eval use?

The Prototype eval is built around the NCP1117-3.3_SOT223, from the RP2040/RP2350 family.

How big is the Prototype eval PCB?

The Prototype eval measures 200 × 100 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Prototype eval?

60 components, from 25 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 Prototype eval design files?

From the ErichZimmer/OpenSync 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 Prototype eval design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its CERN-OHL-S-2.0 license, which ErichZimmer chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Prototype eval 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.
