Solheim68: common questions

What microcontroller does the Solheim68 use?

The Solheim68 is built around the ATmega32U4, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the Solheim68 PCB?

The Solheim68 measures 323 × 94.1 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Solheim68?

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

Where can I download the Solheim68 design files?

From the evyd13/solheim68 repository on GitHub, which has the KiCad layout and the schematic; the links under Design files point to each one.

Can I use the Solheim68 design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its GPL-3.0 license, which evyd13 chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Solheim68 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.
