Arduino gameboy: common questions

What microcontroller does the Arduino gameboy use?

The Arduino gameboy is built around the ARDUINO_UNO_R3, from the AVR/Arduino family.

How big is the Arduino gameboy PCB?

The Arduino gameboy measures 100 × 100 mm, has 2 copper layers and is 1.6 mm thick.

How many components are on the Arduino gameboy?

10 components, from 4 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 Arduino gameboy design files?

From the fredriknk/arduino_gameboy 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 Arduino gameboy design in my own project?

Yes, under the terms of its MIT license, which fredriknk chose for the repository.

Can I test firmware for the Arduino gameboy 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.
