RPI Interface: common questions

What microcontroller does the RPI Interface use?

The RPI Interface is built around the RaspberryPI, from the Raspberry Pi family.

How big is the RPI Interface PCB?

The RPI Interface measures 56 × 65 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the RPI Interface?

26 components, from 20 distinct parts. The full bill of materials is listed on this page.

Where can I download the RPI Interface design files?

From the evolutek/cartolutek-hardware repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the RPI Interface design in my own project?

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

Can I test firmware for the RPI Interface without the hardware?

Yes. HardLabs builds a simulation of the board from its netlist and BOM, so you can run and debug Raspberry Pi firmware against it before you order a PCB.
